Trying out the new wheels. completely stock standard!!!

Its a bit higher cos my stock wheels are on one side and they make the other side higher

Genuine TRD kit coming in next few weeks along with coilovers!

[Ronin 09]

nice... looks like it's about to pounce!

oh its a tourerV nice, i thought they were all manaul, hrmm, they really dont look mean enough with out the factory kit, but dam, toyota chaser what a beast, someone ran a 13.2 in a stock manual one! I think at the time it was the fastest factory sedan, faster times than a m5

[Starionturbo]

i had no idea on actually how hard these cars go.

For a complete standard car, i seriously cant beleive how quick this thing is, its funny. I look back and think dammn, i usedd to think stock skylines,200sx etc are fairly quick standard - this is another league. On the run it would keep up with my old skyline.

1st gear winds out hard but the ETCS overides it from getting too tail happy. 2nd gear pulls like a freight train and it doesnt run out of puff. Very very comfortable inside and it feels quite nimble for its size. Chasers 1480kg kerb weight is identical to the 32 GTR, with the 33 and 34 GTR being over 100 kgs more.

Its got a torsen LSD and is happy to step out with the foot down. I cant stop laughing in disbelief when I drive it!!! Im real happy with it, wont be driving it as much though, i got it also for my Dad to drive to work and back!!

Have a look at the latest Hi performance imports - Cred tunings Jeff Ash has a black JZX100. 286 rwkw. stock auto. Had a chat to him and he said its almost uncontrollable with wheelspin right through 3rd gear. And on a stock auto with no shift kit, no upgrades etc.

The PowerFC for this car has a specific Auto function where u can adjust line pressure etc.

Stock turbo should comfortably pull 250 rwkw. But im going straight for the HKS 2835 Pro S. Should comfortably get 300 rwkw.

if you dont mind be asking, how mucho? when i was looking at the time (year or 2 ago) a 98 manual trd V was just around 30grand landed complied, are they still taht expensive?

[Starionturbo]

U might get a shack series 1 high kilometer manual one for 34k.

TRD versions go for almost 39k. If i could get one for 30k id buy it!!!!

I got one with 60,000, log books, completely bog standard. There is not one single mod on this car. I bought the wheels seperately. The car has had absolutely nothing whatsoever put on it.

[NateR31]

god damn, i guess they jsut got more expensive!

People i spoke to were Oz direct Imports, i think they went bust or were just very dodgy!

soo got any rb25 performce parts lying around you wanna give away

[Starionturbo]

mmm i have my RB25 spark plug cover. It sits up proudly in the garage (where the 200sx' are parked) just to show em whos boss

Nah thats about it, I sold my car with everything.

[paulr33]

the auto powerfc has the biggest function menu ever

its over 14 items

[Starionturbo]

Yeah i know!! I hope the person whos gonna tune it is gonna know what to do!!! Kinda worries me a bit.

[INASNT]

Nice

Have u checked out the 550hp TRD kit for the chaser?

[paulr33]

it should be fine, no different to normal powerfc tuning.

i would imagine most of the settings out of the box would work fine for the auto settings

[foznice]

congrats on the new ride kim, can't wait to see it.

[inark]

mmmm nice... of course it goes hard... as do all the toyotas with 1JZs in them... the soarer did a 13.8 with nothing but a catback so theyre no slugs.

i saw one of these the other day with the same gold wheels but it was black and had an exorst... very nice

[ABuSD]

Awesome man just awesome, im soo Jealous. Would love one of these, but dunno if im ready to cross over to Toyota

But im going straight for the HKS 2835 Pro S. Should comfortably get 300 rwkw.

U sure about this? I think to get 300 this things gonna be ringing its neck, maybe u should go for a 3037?

I hope your right, cos i have a 2835 on my rb25, and wouldnt mind hitting high 200s or break the 300 mark.

[Sputnik]

Is it fwd or 4wd?

Its very light for a 4 door car. Great that its automatic... never realised that Toyota turbochaged cars other then the Supra

Yeh it does look nice, but it lacks the presence of European saloons...but they are made to a market.

2835's on rb25 have made high 200's but with more than 1.5 bar boost and some engine work.

[ABuSD]

/\/\ Fair enough, well still enough for me.

Starion, do u know if the 2835, will fit onto your stock manifold or do u have to gt a new one? Im guessing it would have a t3 flange? We wanted to bolt up a 2835 to my mates MR2 but it had some other flange design, hopefully chasers aint the same!!
