here are some pics on the car

first day owning her




the old 1ge power plant... yes she was capable of movement suprisingly haha


cleant up with some new rims




a weekend, some mates and a lot of hard work


60k's into a barrier




thank god for wreckers haha


thought we'd try a new look when we were done fixing her but didnt like it so scrapped the idea


all stripped down ready for a good clean and a new grey interior


old engine taken out




r154 box and afew of the manual conversion kit components


lightened billet steel flywheel and 500 hp heavy duty carbon kevlar clutch


the 2jzgte motor




Still a lot of work needs doing before i can put the new motor in but she is getting there slowly but surely... just taking time because of cost and having not much time on my hands due to work and that... Any advice or opinions will b muckly appreciated... even negative ones

Ill upload some more pics as more work gets done

Good stuff!
Almost got mine on the road again. Keeping a eye on your build

So thats a Aristo 2JZ?

[sidewayz_supra]

thanks man... yeah it is... no idea how good it is... i got it for 2.5k so im not expecting the best... ill do a big service on it like cambelt water pump gaskets and that... if shes still running rough after that then ill look into the bigger stuff... how far away are you from doing yours?

[ryanfels]

Wow, i didnt know these came with a single cam 1g

[ohyeahjake]

What do you have left of the 1g / box and was it manual or auto?

[sidewayz_supra]

it was an auto... and i pretty much have everything... not sure of the condition... but if you need anything feel free to come and have a look lol

[gtivvl]

Nice, I love the look of these cars. Had a facelift one with a 1ggte and it was a slug. Hate to imagine how a 1g-e would go LOL. Atleast ur replacing it with a proper engine. Do you have the problem of water leaking into the rear wheel well and causing it to rust?

[murdoko]

interesting project! You just gained a new follower.

[sidewayz_supra]

yeah there was a lot of rust issues... needed a whole new spare tyre well and a bit of the boot floor haha... thanks murdoko... thanx for the support guys ... btw if im adding more photos up do i just do it on this post? sorry im new to the whole forums thing haha

[driftouteast]

Yea just add the photo to your new post. Sweet car BTW, cant wait to see it finished.
