Toyota Cressida 2JZ Monster in Making

[ahmadbila]

@ ahmadbila
bro safety is ok bro but on the roll cage thing u should never drive a roll cage fitted vehicle without a helmet.even on a mild bump with stiffer suspension and u boink ur head on the cage and u will be out.in case of an accident the same cage can seriously hurt u.and driving a street car with a helmet on sure looks stupid.
the best safety u can have is an intelligent right foot.u should know when to floor it and when to let it go.i have seen many rwd cars destroyed in front of my eyes because the driver had never driven a rwd car and didnt know what to do.and some of them were stupid so didnt let go of the throttle coz of their egos and some juest didnt have the idea that only 100 hp rwd is enough to enjoy some scary moments.
be smart drive smart..

thanx a lot for enlightening me on the topic... never thought about that

@ all ...

I really appreciate all of your concerns about Safety and surly this is our first most concern, and as i have mentioned before that i am not building this car for Racing or speeding, but just cruiser and a Show Car

the ideal car is looking good. hope your one is also like that.

Enjoy Safely. May Allah save all of us from bad Accidents. Ameen.

Dude, The Best reconditioned 2jz I've ever seen, Thumbs up for the engine, I'll be with you as you proceed :D(in the thread only :P;))

[khanrocks]

Thanks TAZ ...

[hassanazeem]

Updates plz... n more pics too...

another thing... r u gonna run a manual or a automatic tranny on it??

[khanrocks]

Well The update is that we ran into a Chamber issue, The engine is front chambered and so is the Sub frame so its hard to fit the engine.. Well thanks to some looking around we found a promising sub frame and now its installed .. Soon the new engine mounts would be placed and then dropped the engine, once the engine is lined up it will be pulled out again to start the suspension/axle works ..

will keep updating ...

MashAllah MashAllah!
Bhaijan Best Of LuckWith Project!

[hassanazeem]

Nice...

You still havent answered by question about the tranny... will the Monster have A/T or M/T????

[khanrocks]

@ hassanazeem ... well the engine came with a Auto tranny .. but i am on a lookout for a GETRAG 6 speed till i get that i will run the original auto ..

[hassanazeem]

Ahan... well if your not planning to race it then i dont think u should go for a manual tranny... there is already plenty of power and manual tranny will give you traction issues...

[khanrocks]

Well i dont have any plans to race this .. the only reason to get a Manual is that i Like driving manual Gear .. it keeps you connected with the engine

[hassanazeem]

Lol! gud answer...

[fahadmiester]

great project best of luck

[dr3vil]

nice updates i am really looking forward to this being completed
one thing i want to get your attention on is the brakes and the brake servo before going to test runs check it properly and if you are going to upgrade the brakes or not

[khanrocks]

@ ekdrifter .. Thanks for you concern but if you see the project plan i have already mentioned that we would be upgrading the Breaks including the servo aswell.

[advoc21]

i trully agree with the fact that 2JZ is a monster and its seriously quick... Just wanted to ask you, what will you do to stop the car, coz i really dont think the brakes currently used in the car are that efficient and secondly would the body of such an old car be able to support such a big engine....
However, best of luck with the swap my friend and mashaAllah ur ride wud trully be awesome once fully done..

[JANANKKKKK]

how much u paid for the monster (2jzgte)?

[khanrocks]

UPDATE :

The Engine is in the Car now .. Almost all the Wirings have been done .. InshAllah would be starting in very soon ... Power steering has been installed .. an new Bigger radiator has been installed also for better cooling ...

After the engine has been debugged it will be pulled out again and then the Body work and rest of the Mechanical work would commence ..
