R100

Recommended Posts

Some of you fullas may of seen this on tard me a few weeks back.

Its a 1974 Toyota Crown super saloon. Has been parked in a shed since 1992. Was part of a deseased estate. Im not really too sure why i bought it or what plans i have for it, but for now i just want to make it drivable so i can move it around easy.

It has done 79000 ks since the guy bought it brand new in 74'

I have all the service history and original purchase receipt.

I drained the fuel today and replaced the spark plugs but it still wont start. I think its low on compression, may have stuck valves. Dunno..

Anyway heres the best pic i have of it, was the pic off tard me.

Will post some better pics in the next couple of weeks once i dust it off etc.

Ok so ive decided to give it a birthday and repower it with a 1JZ engine. Would of liked a 2JZ but got a good deal on a couple of 1JZ's Will be keeping it auto with column change.

It will be N/A as im not after heaps of power, just a nice upgrade from the factory 4M engine.

Factory 4m > 108-122 hp (81-91 kW)

Factory 1JZ-GE > 200 hp (147 kW)

Picture below of engines when i picked them up today, i only need 1 engine but bought the other incase i need spares. ie; broken sensors etc
