Tofu - Phil's JZX100 Tourer-V

[Tofu]

Hey Lads,



This is my 1998 JZX100 Chaser Tourer V. Originally Automatic 1JZ-GTE, it was converted in Japan with a R154 with all the Manual interior trim before I purchased it. Bought it from a car dealer in Invercargill who had the car in storage for 3 years as they purchased the car before the import laws. First NZ owner and i'm loving it! Definintely my favourite car i've owned compared to all my previous cars.

Modifications have been kept light as the car is a daily driver, i'm poor and it sees up to 1000km a week so money is spent on fuel $$$. Next things to do are a turbo recondition/highflow as the current one is starting to puff a little blue smoke, clutch upgrade as the release bearing is quite noisy and a Torsen or Mechanical LSD as the factory diff is lazy.
