1JZGTE in a MA70?

[Wolfie]

its not the country...its the mechanic, america houses alot of sh!t mechs who think a 1JZ can be treated the same as a 440 Mopar...but like anywhere there are good and bad mechanics, shop around and dump enough cash into any engine swap and you'll have a better running car.

hey man i'm not trying to cause any problems on this site i'm just giving my opinion on this swap and due to some of my research guys in the u.s. where i'm from just drop a 1jz motor just to be different from some mk3 owners and you can even see it for yourself the canadian dudes drop 1j's and they're whoopin some ass on the track. look there's a guy in nevada if i remember correctly and he did the 1j swap and he claims to have spent 25,000 US dollars and he posted his timeslips and he's only doing 14's he's doing them consistantly but now i ask you, if you spent 25grand on your supra what would you expect the supra to do on the quarter mile also knowing you're a good driver and the tuning is up to par? and once again i'm not trying to pick fights with anybody or put them down shit who knows maybe i'll be another half ass 1j, 7m swapper. oh yeah forgot to tell you i'm in queens new york and yes i do still believe that some of our canadian supra owners still do a meaner 1j swaps than u.s. tuners because in the states people do 7m's or 2j swap barely 1j's. shoot even jeeves tried to smack me back into reality jeeves ask me before stock vs. stock why would you spend 5grand on another motor just to get 50 more horses when what i have under the hood is just as good with the potential already there

hey mkIII_driver sorry for opening my mouth and re-opening this thread but you think what you think because i'm still sticking with my story. but i'm just saying in the states yes there is a lot of 1j owners but not very fond of this swap. once again sorry and please don't set me up in the front line like i'm some kind of bad guy because if we can't talk about it here where else can we talk about it?

hey man its not like i was trying to tell you to F**k off or anything its just that when it comes down to it there might be some guys in canada that do have the better 1jz swap but then again there maybe people in U.S. That have the same or possibly better done swap its not something that you can just boldly put out there. I only say this because i did a 1jz swap on a 89 cressida. And that thing kicked ass until i got t-boned comming into a intersection by a drunk girl. that also was in oine of my classes in college. my car was gone and they wouldnt let me claim the 1jz because i didnt report it to them so they could raise my mothly payment on insurance. That car ran its ass off i took on cars all day long a wooped their asses. Excluding the Z06 vettes and other such beast cars that are bitch. I say that because they win and are all excited about it when they spent about 5-6 times what i did. Its all good thought my new project will smoke them(hopefully)
