beachlander Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 So i had a brain fart and bought this thing. Dont have it yet as its getting picked up from Rotorua on a transporter, but was bored so am putting a thread up now. Its just a rolling body, but was factory 7mgte. Need a few things other than the motor and box, such as a grill and diff, plus some interior bits as well. Haven't fully decided on what motor im going to run, put am leaning towards a 1jzge, or 2jzge. As for the looks department, this is sort of what im going for. Yeeee. If any one knows of any spares, id probably be interested. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingbrick Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Factory 7m turbo.. Is that rare?! Buy that sweet 7m off deaf rattle. It was advertised ages ago but wouldn't have sold it at asking price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachlander Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Sweet! Jz with itbs would be tits! Thats the idea thats bouncing round my head most at the moment. Factory 7m turbo.. Is that rare?! Buy that sweet 7m off deaf rattle. It was advertised ages ago but wouldn't have sold it at asking price. Dont know if its rare, probably is. No M series will be going near this car. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EURON8 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Ask Sheepers. 2Ms (both kinds aye pieman) are the only way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowzer Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Dafuk is a 8M? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighLUX Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Has BHG's even faster than a 7m because the number is higher 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowzer Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 The number denotes the average number of gaskets it goes through a year. That's why M-TEUs are great. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hachi-ichi Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I coined 8M for that particular motor because it seemed it deserved a promotion from the cursed 7M title. 8M is the motor that contains next to no 7M components or inherent 7M bullshit any more and makes far too much power. Agree with above post though. M-TEU for nostalgic boost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachlander Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 I now has car. Got told it would come with rear shocks, which it didnt, which made getting it off the transporter very interesting. Now to start buying stuff. Anyone have Z20/A70 rear shocks and springs i could buy? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachlander Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 So i have the choice to buy back my old 1jzgte for the price i sold it for (ie cheap). But that means i would want to go r154 which = $. Should i? Or should i go NA 1j? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepers Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 ive been running a W55 behind a 1JZ for about 13 years now and its still going strong. you dont HAVE to put an R154 behind it straight away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hachi-ichi Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 stock 1J turbo wont kill a 58 or 57 with ease, stock 55 behind 1J-GT is only really a problem when you get really into skids / abuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
