    1G-GTE to 7MGE Swap?

    May I ask what has gone wrong on your 1G? I'm seriously considering picking up a 1G as a daily in a week or two. Anyway, on to your questions The 1G twins won't be a bolt on affair. Not too sure on the mounts, but according to the link below, it's not a slide in match. If you've got a...

    Uh....

    Once you get over the initial shock, it really isn't that bad... Drop the front mount and over sized wheels and you've yourself got a perfectly serviceable SJ.

    It might help if And why do you want wide tires? The look or are you beliving the age old myth wider tire, more grip? If you want to feel like you're glued to the road, get a set of R-888s :evil2:.

    Where can I get MKIV Tt wheels!!??!??!

    I blame my typo on lack of morning coffee. What's "wrong" with this deal is that for the same amount of money, you could cop a set used aftermarket 17s (with the right offset) and wrapped them in rubber. The only justification for MKIV TT rims is either you've got a Narrowbody (the offset...

    Where can I get MKIV Tt wheels!!??!??!

    $800? Where they entrusted with diamonds too? $800 seems like an awful lot of money to spend on a set of wheels that don't fit the MA70 properly, with or without tryes.

    TOYOTA just won! - First NASCAR victory

    Fair enough, but I just don't see why I should be suddenly happy that Toyota "won" a race. Toyota are a corporation out to do one thing - Make money. They haven't done you or I any favors. They designed the car we drive 22 odd years ago, built them and sold them. Then on top of that, they've...

    TOYOTA just won! - First NASCAR victory

    I was going to make this very point last but copped out in case It started a backlash. Toyota didn't win this race, the companies that sub-contracted the work for them did. I'm sorry, but they just aren't going to impress me with a "in house" designed motor and a bodyshell that looks a bit like...

    1990 Supra Chassis

    I'm interested to hear how you plan to pull a decent profit from this? The 1J is obviously going to pull in more cash, but I'd be seriously surprised if you can make more than a couple of nickel and dimes after completing a full and clean 1J conversion, bodywork and all of little bits and...

    Buying supra's from japan

    Notice how I said 2002. You can't compare a 93 to a 02, particularly when the price difference is as MASSIVE as it is in Japan. The cheapest 6 speed TT 02 I found on that site is 4,053,000yen ($39k odd US) The cheapest 6 speed TT 93 I found on that site is 1,638,000yen ($15k odd US) I've read...

    Buying supra's from japan

    Not sure what point you're trying to argue against mate. If it was the $10k - $15k Supras being NA comment, I was talking specially about 98+s (should have been a little more clear about that). That TT doesn't seem all that cheap, isn't that about the going rate for a left hand drive one?

    Buying supra's from japan

    While on a similar subject, Doesn't the US have similar policy to the 15 rule Canadian rule stating that anything 25 years and over can be bought in (relativity) trouble free?

    Buying supra's from japan

    1. A car with the same spec, year, colour and similar kms is going for $26k - Someone has screwed up on the site or the car is a wreck. 2. A 20ft container to FL will run you $3422 (apparently). 3. From my research, It will be impossible to get it registered (Legally). There are a couple of...

    Buying supra's from japan

    What you've got to remember is that there are more differences between JSpec and USDM MKIVs than what side the steering wheel is on. Edit: Also, those $10K - $15k MKIVs you were digging up were NAs. A proper 2002 6-Speed TT with low miles looks like it will set you back $40k+... that's not...

    Suicide Lambo doors whaddya think?

    Am I wrong in thinking that this idea would simply not work due to the sheer length of A70 doors?
