I love how you guys go into these threads and rip on peoples' cars like you drive a Porsche or something. The car could use some cleaning up bodywise and some tint, but it's a decent car. What are the plans for it?

LIZMO
02-26-2008, 09:56 AM
thanks guys, haha. its been a daily driver since i got it... but hopefully after i get my jetta fixed and running again, that will be my daily driver and the 240 can get a motor swap, and some body work.
i know it needs body work, but theres no rust.. yet! and the purple tint is the first to go the people that had it before me must of decided to start peeling it off and not finish... ah well.

02-28-2008, 04:05 AM
well see the thing is a 2jz would cost three times as much as it would to swap in an SR. id rather 1j swap it before 2j swap. toyota ftmfw!!!!

$1500 swap kit, $1700 2JZ motor set. figure what another $1000 for random odds and ends to get it running and driving your at what?

$4200?

SR
$1600 SR motor set. Another $1000 to do random odds and endsl your at $2600 for a 200HP 4banger thats stuck there. To get 400whp outta it your gonna have to do atleast 2-3K worth of parts where the 2J is's gonna need a intake and exhaust and a boost controller?

2JZ > ALL

yeah it's just that easy everyones got 5g's just laying around to throw into an econobox..... there's a reason more people do sr swap than 2jz..... i really don't care either way though makes no difference to me what someone does with their car **** they could draw a big cock on the side and put a big wing with a midget tied to it i'm not gonna care it's not my car, and i'm not about to tell someone what to do or not do with their car. people just gotta decide on their own.

Beagle
02-29-2008, 02:40 AM
well you think about it. if i was to buy a 240 and swap a 2jz in it. it would cost about the same as what i paid for my camaro. the only difference would be that the 240 would fly.

thats why you save up your money, just like building any project.

i bet beagle didn't buy the car and all the mods all at once, i'm sure you did the same. what about everyone else?

If you can tell me a reliable site(osaka or jazzpro isn't one of them) that I can get a SR for that price let me know..please, heavythrottle and enjuku are lookin for 2700 for there engine sets. And its 1700 for a 2jz with an automatic trans, try 3k+ for one with manual trans. But your right about a swap being about $4200, thats what i'm planning to spend at least

Right now just building up for my swap, just ordered ARP head studs, Greddy LS spec FMIC, HKS bov with hotpipe, Cosworth headgasket, Walboro 255 HP fuel pump, Cusco motor mounts, circuit sports intake gasket. I would order the engine first but in case its a bad engine I want it to still be in the warranty period

as much as i have used Nico in the past i really am not a fan. There are so many new fanboys that think they know everything about everything with 240's theres more questions on there then there is helpful people (this is flickspeaking i'm on my G/f name) best of luck with your swap i hope all goes well. Osaka has a startup warrenty as well.
