New JZX90 Owner

[Shirodori]

Hi guys, thought i'd introduce my self as I think I'll be using this forum quite often now

Name is John, I work at a big wreckers yard selling mazda parts in auckland.
Always was into RWD cars especially nissans, had a S13 previous which I took to meremere.
Long story short I got cocky and spun around the straight hitting ass first to the notorious walls at a good speed.





Now after this incident I decided to part out the car and forget about cars in general. But with the industry I work at and the group of friend I hang around with this was impossible.

Always wanted a JZX but never could afford it but I bit the bullet got a loan and bought a fresh import JZX90 chaser from a dealer.
1JZ-GTE fully factory with R154 . 75,000 km on the clock, first owner and she is very virgin.



1 Week passed, bought a Traum kit for it, D2 adjustables and XD9's all around.





Hope to meet other JZX owners and share knowledge. I have no info at all about these cars

Hey John,

Welcome and that's a lovely looking Chaser, 75K, factory manual and a virgin ... that ticks ALL the major boxes, good score.

I just bought my first last November as well, huge change as I'd being doing na 4's for the last 30 years, but I jumped on the forum here and everyone I've met and interacted with has been nice and happy to help with information.

Wikipedia has a good article that covers the 'big picture', and I was amazed to find I was really driving a very flash Corona. and that the comparative Toyota Supra of that era with the same basic motor setup weighed 100kgs more !!

I've also found the Supra community is a great resource for 1JZ information.

If you're unaware there's a good article here about finding jzx90 stuff in Japan on Yahoo (using Chrome browser as a translator, it's their Trademe).

Anyway, again welcome and rock that land whale ....

Hey there, welcome mate.

I also own a 90 white but a Mark II, slightly more km than yours but its an awesome car.
Hows the bodykit fit wise?
Just enjoy it no matter what stage its at, the chassis is excellent, and well tested and reliable and a heap of fun to drive...at times, way too much fun
