KyleR Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 That's a true monster. Personally I wouldn't have that huge rear wing and would have kept the dual exhaust, but maybe that's just me. I like the gauge in the handle though, never thought of that before and it is a very nice colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricey Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I reckon that could make a small child wet itself in fright! Monster. Can I be spoddish and ask what the engine is from.......could google it but I reckon there are others who don't know either but don't want to look dumb!

docwra Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Ahh, the old 2 Jay Z swap with Nas on the side That looks stock, fantastic work - much more info needed though, turbo spec, management, gearbox and most importantly what its done to the handling, have you had the car corner weighted at all? Seen a lot of 2J's going into drift cars over here, spectacular engines. Last post - its out of a Mk IV Supra (at least in the UK, can also be found in Chasers/Mark 2's and Aristos) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mhd212 Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 how does the car handle/work with all that power? Well the handling was ok with the stock 2jz engine, almost the same as it used to be. But with the extra HP i needed to add couple of things such as strut bars sway bars and semi slick tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhd212 Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Wow that looks insane! Was just the other day thinking how good a 2jz-gte engine would be in a zed As for cooling, i reckon a vented seibon carbon bonnet would set that off nicely, and maybe take a hacksaw to the front bumper - after all, thats a lot of engine to cool through not a particularly big front aperture. VS style hood coming on the way but if its not enough then I have to do something with the bumper as you suggested thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhd212 Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 That's incredible! Awesome power and looks.. must've set you back a fair bit! As others have said a proper build thread would make for a great read. Only thing I noticed... lots and lots of horsepower... and... STANDARD BRAKES!? Yea :S Its a bit expensive and 4 stop tech big brakes will make a 3 feet difference. But because of the pressure many people are applying on me to do something with the brakes ( just as you guys did ) I bought stock brembos and will be installed once am back from Leeds. I have couple of bad quality videos have a look at them: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docwra Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Boost video needs to be accompanied by rev counter really One of the speedo would be quite funny too, I think this is easily 200hp over anything else thats on this board. Are those Oman power figures or US ones BTW?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are those Oman power figures or US ones BTW?? Well the boost gauge can make a long story short isn't it? The car was tuned on a mustang dayno so I guess it should be 30 whp above the 905 whp.

Tricky-Ricky Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Very nice fella with the right turbo and management, with the current spec you could squeeze a bit more from that we have a Supra in the UK making over 1100BHP on pump fuel, with similar spec, I guess being a little shorter in the wheelbase than a Supra, i would imagine it can get a little skittish and crossed up if you get to enthusiastic? I must admit i was impressed with the stability of my Skyline 350GT (same but slightly longer wheelbase than the Z) after coming from a single turboed Supra, but the Supra had the handling edge despite being a much older design.
