Just Got My Supra :P

[GeneStarWindGSW]

Hey you guys. The names Rafael & I got myself a 1987 Toyota Supra. The motor on this car 2JZ-GE and the motor runs hard and the car is clean. The previous owner ragged it out so im just fixing what he left behind -.-. So at the moment the car is driving but barely cuz the tranny is slipping since i'm jobless and don't have money for repairs. I'd like to get started working on the car right soon, but im not sure when i'll come onto some money :'(. i know everyone here at Supramania can be a big help to me to my car:icon_bigg

Well time to get to work =D

Welcome to Supramania Mr. Genestar. This link may help you, and I have a few others as well. It just shows different parts that will interchange between a 1jz and a 2jz. There is a section dedicated to the 1jz and 2jz on here. You will find some good reading in there. Good luck.........Jay

unless you guys wanna donate $$$ to me :biglaugh: then there isn't gonna be a turbo in this car for awhile, but if i ever find a stock 7M-GTE (if stock most wouldn't be) i'll run him :icon_razz

it wouldn't :icon_razz
cool car though man, i was actually debating throwing in a 2jzge at one point, but then i decided to ever go na, it would be a ls1.

[AlexSmith]

Welcome aboard. I am just curious as to why someone would swap in a NA 2JZ, isn't it just as much work to do the swap for a 2JZGTE? Anywho that car looks nice though and hope you get that shift linkage.

welcome

Thanks AlexSmith ^_^. Good to know people are really nice here. Well im not sure maybe he just couldn't afford to get the 2JZ-GTE?

Yes, same work.. a lot less money. For instance I got my 2JZGE for 650 shipped.. and its incredibly clean.
