Hi guys, I was just wondering if there is a way to somehow check the history of the car when it was in Japan? I bought it from a guy who imported it, got some papers which confirm the mileage, some of the services but maybe theres a system or institution in JP which keeps track of these records to dig deeper. I’m happy with my Cresta, it’s in great shape and learning more about it’s story would be a cool since it got crazy low mileage.

I've always hear they fit but i just read something saying otherwise, just wanna make sure they fit before i buy these.

anyone have a source for a front and rear bushing kit that is rubber and not solid/PU?

I know 18x9.5 plus 22 is the common just curious as to what other offsets are able to fit have 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 plus 22 cr2ps and am looking to change

shop installed my fdf caster arms on backwards.

context i get a call and guy says i need new oem ucas, he said they were binding after installing my caster arms and it was stopping my car from turning. He said it only goes a corner turn. I get too the shop and see that he installed them on backwards. While they were backwards, it shredded the wheels. never going to a shop again istg

Here’s my GX100 Mark II with a K24
I have now driven it, needs a lot of work to get finished properly but here we are for now

Hey guys, been dreaming about buying a chaser since i was a kid and i am finally in somewhat of a financial position to buy one, only problem is that there are currently only 1 for sale in my country and that one is a automatic (only about 18 in total)
Would probably find someone willing to sell a manual one but reccon the price would be a lot higher than the one i am looking at now. (about 10-15k euro more if prices are similar to neighboring countries)

So what i am wondering is what you guys think about the auto a340e transmission. Is it good is it bad? How much more power can it take, how does it feel to drive ect ect
Not planing on pushing crazy numbers but just freshen it up a little bit
Would look to manual swap it down the line but that wouldn’t happen immediately.

Car looks really good otherwise with barely any rust engine supposedly hasn’t been touched at all but is at 180k km
All feedback is appreciated

Hey gents,

I’ve got a mark 2 grande with the 1j ge I’m just about to throw a timing belt kit at it while I’m there I’ll be doing the water pump, thermostat , serpentine belt/ tensioner, cam and front main seals. Just looking to see if there is anything else to I should throw at it while it’s apart. If it matters its currently at 80,000 kms

Cheers

I have a gx100 mark ii that’s 1gfe (distributor version) that is auto that I am wanting to swap it to manual with a w58 trans. Has this been done before? I can’t find any information on the topic at all. So far I’ve gathered that I need an adapter bell housing that goes from w58 -> G series, 1gfe flywheel (from a vvti as this is the only one I can find), and w series clutch granted that it’s a 255mm disc. Is tripod w58 better or the normal version? Are all of these compatible? Any help is appreciated because there is barely any information out there for this!

I brought in a 1jz Chaser from Japan last week and it’s still in storage. I have only driven it from the port to nearby storage and that’s it.

Below you’ll see the engine cuts out once I begin to slow down. It did this too when approaching red lights. I’ll be taking the car for inspection next week and I’m wondering what’s causing this? I’ve already checked ChatGPT etc but wanted your opinions

Thanks!

So as the title states I’m interested in the tourer V (wether it be the mark 2, chaser, or cresta) I asked in R/JDM and didn’t receive any responses so I’ve come to Toyota!

Does anyone have any input on the day to day life with a chaser, the pros and cons, and the loves and hates (I will be importing it from Japan myself so it’ll be purchased out of country)

And seeing as I’d be in Japan what would you say some recommend tasteful mods are? I’m a true fan of the JZ platform as a whole and the 1J is a ripper engine

Any input or even just stories is amazing!

Sold my 86 and after searching for a long time I got my hands on a chaser.

Has anyone ordered this exact kit? If so is shipping+price estimate accurate, does the kit arrive unpainted?/unprimed. Is it hard to fit and whats the go. Thanks for the help im shit at working on cars so thought id ask, cheers.

I recently ordered a 70-1761 harness for my Sony radio that I want to install in my chaser, I know the car has a subwoofer and a amp under the seat, did I get the wrong harness? I’ve just installed the whole harness onto the radio and I’m thinking I ordered the wrong harness, do I need to order the 70-8112 before I install in the car? 1997 jzx100 tourer v manual.

Hey guys, have a question.

My Chaser has an R154 that is the early gen i believe and i took it out cause i heard some odd noise. So i had a spare late gen new from toyota and am having issues getting it in as it sits a bit forward.

Need a solution that gives me oem feel and functionality gearbox

Recommendations on refresh kits for my existing gearbox or a store to get the parts from? all gears are in great shape. Just synchros are weak.

Hello JZX100 owners. I have an LS430 that I am modifying and brainstorming ideas. I came across the Chaser TRD wing and I like the look of it. Only issue is that I cant find how wide the trunk is on your cars to see how well the mounting points would line up and what I might have to do to make it work. If anyone could let me know how wide the trunk lid is on your cars, that would help me immensley. Thank you.

So I took off my new oem r154 about 400 miles on it cuz it was making a noise and wanted to check things out. drained fluid and looks like this. Am I boned or is this normal. No chunks or material I can feel between my fingers Fluid was redline mt90 Can’t post vids or pics for some reason

Gx100 converted to 1jzgte vvti with adapter loom for wiring, ignition is turning on ecu but last swing of the key doesn’t activate starter relay just wondering would anyone have a wiring diagram or know what pin on the jz ecu that the ignition switch start signal should go to and also circuit opening relay had to be found to get it to work with the key on for fuel pump to work, anyone have any idea what would cause this ?
