Name: Ethan McGregor
Where your from: Whangarei (if any body is up this way keen on a meet)
What you do: Farmer
Car you own: S1 SZR JZA80 Supra 5 speed
Mods and future plans: at the moment it has 18x9/10 D1r's, and exhaust. but soon the fun begins. im planning on something different for the supra world and not going turbo. the plan is full itb's set up using 20v black top itb's , custom extractors, custom reground cams (at the moment thinking 280) , hks cam gears and cam belt, port and polish. most the work will be done by A1 turbos. i no im not going to get big power numbers but the response should be amazing and the sound evan beta. the work should began after calving soon as posible. should hear the sound of itb's before summer starts . then after the engine is all done moving on to body work
Next car you want to buy: JZX110 one day (but keeping the supra)

Re: Ethans JZA80
Hey,
Car looks good - always been a fan of the factory-option sideskirts & end caps you have there. They look smart in white too!
Plans sound interesting - other option to be different and get a bit more hp would be supercharging - get a great unique whine with that too
Will be interested to watch progress on your hex-throttlebody setup!
Cheers,
Ben.

Sweet finaly someone with the balls to do a n/a jz bulid
theres a dude in ozzy who has suposidly made a set of headers for a jza80 that has made alot of hp, i thought the link was on this site but i can not find it
also something to ponder you can get good aftermarket stainless headers for the vvti 2jz ( different exhaust ports keep in mind ) that fit the jzs161, i modded a set to fit my vvti 1jz, i gained mild hp/kw and gained a heap of torque
if you want good power tho you will have to go full custom imo
DO IT!!!!

Re: Ethans JZA80
thanks mate
havent herd of the guy in ozzy will look into that and what he did. will be going full custom tho. i want to do it once and do it right so down the track im not pulling it out for something with a beta flow. so would rather hold off on cams for a bit longer to get the best itbs and headers i can. love the car in the middle (LRG Soup) it sounds mint and looks even beta. the top pics headers look mint something like that would be the go.
ps got a set of gte valve and cam covers to so wont have that ugly dip
