Mashallah awesome dream project DONE. . . M really impressed i was also thinking to do such a project n thn i found urs???

Sir i have read all ur threads bt there are still some things m not clear about???

1> U said u have done some modification in chasse in order to hold the power of 2jzgte. . . Can u explain like wht things u did to make chasse stronger???

2> U did cutting in cabin. . . whts cabin i could not get it???

3> Whts rack and pinion???

4> In one place u said it was on tube i think tht 2jzgte is not very good option for this car. . . WHY???

5> Does ur car has a traction problem as 2jzgte has one hell of a torque???

1, Braces and support bars were placed at key points to strengthen chassis.
2, No cutting of firewall was done although radiator support bar was widen to accommodate a larger
radiator.
3. Lexus IS300 R/P made to fit
4, Well what I said was that 2JZGTE is a lot of engine for this type of car meaning its over powered if there is such a thing. I have yet to floor it because its scary as hell.

5, Tons of it

Thanks

Well ur objective was not to build a race car. . .

But m thinking to build a car tht is good at race as well as look like a muscle car so m thinking tht 1jzgte would be a better option in this??? Wht do u suggest???

N if u can post some pic of the car from DOWN SIDE so tht v can see the gearbox fitting, differential and suspension etc. . . Tht would be of great help????

Sorry for asking alot of question as i want to assure tht if i start to make such a project thn i dnt want to stuck in middle of no where???

N m searching for a 2 door coupe corona mark2 1975 but it seems to be impossible to find 1???

nice project!

Rather then copying what I have created, why dont you find something different and unique as your own? I have another very good project car in mind, its in Pakistan.. PM me if you like to discuss.

Oh and forget about finding 2 door coupe MarkII in Pakistan..

Thanks

i put 3sfe in my corolla ke35....work is still in progress.......what u think how it will work......

Oracles (Oracles) 2011-01-16 20:57:16 +0500 #489

3sfe is a better engine compare to what OEM engine it came with, It should do well depending on how well the swap was designed as well as what other upgrades were/are done to the car.

My car was featured in another magazine called Heavy Hitter. I didnt even get a copy because they were all sold out.
