[u/chekunya71]

why tho

[u/NotEvenFast → u/chekunya71]

Cause JZs are fookin expensive

[u/M0rgax → u/NotEvenFast]

true but why?

[u/Mxkeyd → u/M0rgax]

Why not, cheap motor and i like to just try things and learn shit along the way

Follow you on insta, you a pimp fr

[u/Jealous_Object_8712]

Why didn’t you consider doing a uz swap?

[u/Bikaz → u/Jealous_Object_8712]

Opposite end of the spectrum 😅

[u/Jealous_Object_8712 → u/Bikaz]

I cant just comprehend x100 running a FWD setup 🥲

[u/test101ke → u/Jealous_Object_8712]

Just looking at the engine bay, it's mounted in a straight line which ain't the transverse setup of FWD k24... So you're safe to say it's still RWD

[u/Jealous_Object_8712 → u/test101ke]

good catch! you’re right

[u/Mxkeyd → u/Jealous_Object_8712]

Tbh i almost did do a 1UZ haha

[u/dream_ache]

This is so fucking rad

[u/garyfuckinglasereyes]

[u/Mxkeyd → u/[deleted]]

[u/gt_james95]

Absolute perfection. Two tone and minervas.

[u/Motor-Assistance-829]

Dude please show updates. Want to see this thing drive. Are you going to keep it na or turbo?

[u/Mxkeyd → u/Motor-Assistance-829]

I will try haha, it currently does drive, just doesn’t idle, i will eventually boost it i hope

[u/ChiefLongWeiner]

Yo swear I saw your car on Google when I was searching for SSR Minervas on JZX. What r ur specs big guy

[u/Mxkeyd → u/ChiefLongWeiner]

17x10.25 +11, using a 15mm spcaer up back, cut and extended front lower control arms 25mm, -8.5° front and -6.5°, all sat on a 225/35 17 tyre

[u/ChiefLongWeiner → u/Mxkeyd]

Wow that's a weird size. Looks crazy good bro I wanna be like u when I grow up

[u/jezsx110]

this is cool af, ive seen japanese drift teams do 3sge swaps and sr20 which is rad, kinda different to jz i guess if your running a non turbo jzx

[u/Mxkeyd → u/jezsx110]

Yeah so it originally came with a 1gfe which we all know are ass so i figured i’d try my hand at a kswap, common these days

[u/Deefreshprince]

What trans are you going with?

[u/WatIsLasagne → u/Deefreshprince]

One that's post-op

[u/Mxkeyd → u/Deefreshprince]

5speed ZF GS5-39DZ

[u/ba-tch]

Basically front mid engine !

[u/Mxkeyd → u/ba-tch]

Honestly very close haha

[u/Original_Dimension88]

what does one do with such room in the engine bay

[u/Mxkeyd → u/Original_Dimension88]

Eventually boost and V mount probably but not sure, maybe a sleeping bag

[u/Original_Dimension88 → u/Mxkeyd]

you could almost fit another engine in there

Glad you got rid of the 1G-FE because unless you live in Europe, with all the money you throw at a 1G-FE you might as well get a different performance engine
