good one numbnuts, that's thailand. Been posted here a few times :D 1JZ and 2JZ conversions are common as fcuk there, and they're very powerful. It costs a lot more to do an RB swap than it does to do a 1JZ swap, so when you have lemons, you make lemonade... or 1JZade. Most of the thai guys are active members on cefiro-thailand forums.

yeah, what the fark is wrong with a 1J conversion in a cefiro? i reckon it looked alright.

also the sitcker on the back that says: CEFIRO THAILAND is a hint that the country of origin is not in fact 'arab land'...

lol quick with the flamage on Hella Flush there guys...... :D

I'm sure it was a honest mistake!

Neways, I am also a fan of the 1-2JZ engine in Cefiro but easier and cheaper options in Oz land

Ando

hate wagon begins...

didnt even read or look at stickers - saw one ugly one with 1jz and massive tursbo... and one clean rb26... will correct topic title to satisfy

cant edit topic title... if you want since you took offence to it monkey - convert arab land to thai land...

Edited by Hella Flush

haha I didn't take offense... I call every one numbnuts when they goof up. Topic title corrected.

Although calling a cef ugly just because it has a 1JZ is a bit uncalled for. Consider that cefs in thailand don't come with RB20DE, RB20DET or RB25DE engines.

The best engine they get is the RB20E, which is an SOHC 2.0L RB (sorta like a 2.0L version of the Aussie RB30E engine out of the VL and R31). Next best was the RB24S which is a 2.4L 6 cylinder carby engine.

We have under 40 cefiro's here in the whole of the UK. All were imported from Japan and most are the RB20E engine with automatic box's. 2JZ into a cefiro. You folks in Aus and Malasia are just on another level to most of the tuners here in the UK.

Most tuners in the UK wouldn't know where to start, there are a few acceptions (WMS, Mayer etc) However a lot of people would just dismiss it as something that "can't be done"

    • Ah yeah I forget we aren't talking about an RB.
    • Fellow ADHDer to fellow ADHDer; Don't chase that paint perfection. Paint the bumpers, and put them on.  Leave the respray for another day. Plus, no one is going to see those old areas above. Any spots of surface rust, give them a clean up, prime, then hit with a white paint just to protect them from rusting. Again, no one can see it.   #Mine hasn't been on the road since 2011 cause ADHD... I've slowly learned not to keep f**king with shit if I don't need to...
    • That would be interested if it's the case as seems like it would make the job a lot messier but subaru sells OEM gaskets so seems it might of had it.
    • Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️
    • Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.
