You should definitely start it. Or make it after Ramzan as the labour & work slows down during Ramzan.

Bingo

Went to MACTECH for finalizing the cost of the entire project, Alhumdulilah everything has been finalized & the mechanics will start working on the engine tomorrow.

My car sucks at the moment but I just can't wait for the day when it'll be a headturner

Current scenario of the engine bay.

@mods please move this thread to the projects/modified cars category, I'm not getting the proper traffic here.

this category is ok or i say it should be in DIY projects.
for project. remember to balance the car as it get's unbalanced due to the weight of JZ.

ashbal (ashbal) 2018-05-12 03:02:40 +0500 #59

1jz wont unbalance it

Hassan1991 (Electrical Engineer ) 2018-05-12 03:03:56 +0500 #60

it will. need coilovers to get it balanced. this chassis is made for rotary which is much light all the geometry will change after the swap.

ashbal (ashbal) 2018-05-12 03:07:44 +0500 #61

The car was already swapped with a 2jz so all that must have already been done
Btw that was a clean swap done looking at the engine bay

abdulmunimqadri (abdulmunimqadri) 2018-05-12 04:03:12 +0500 #62

Sure, shift it to DIY projects then.
Btw the car won't be unbalanced since it was already running on a 2JZ twin turbo setup earlier & 1JZ is obviously lighter
