good one numbnuts, that's thailand. Been posted here a few times :D 1JZ and 2JZ conversions are common as fcuk there, and they're very powerful. It costs a lot more to do an RB swap than it does to do a 1JZ swap, so when you have lemons, you make lemonade... or 1JZade. Most of the thai guys are active members on cefiro-thailand forums.

yeah, what the fark is wrong with a 1J conversion in a cefiro? i reckon it looked alright.

also the sitcker on the back that says: CEFIRO THAILAND is a hint that the country of origin is not in fact 'arab land'...

lol quick with the flamage on Hella Flush there guys...... :D

I'm sure it was a honest mistake!

Neways, I am also a fan of the 1-2JZ engine in Cefiro but easier and cheaper options in Oz land

Ando

hate wagon begins...

didnt even read or look at stickers - saw one ugly one with 1jz and massive tursbo... and one clean rb26... will correct topic title to satisfy

cant edit topic title... if you want since you took offence to it monkey - convert arab land to thai land...

Edited by Hella Flush

haha I didn't take offense... I call every one numbnuts when they goof up. Topic title corrected.

Although calling a cef ugly just because it has a 1JZ is a bit uncalled for. Consider that cefs in thailand don't come with RB20DE, RB20DET or RB25DE engines.

The best engine they get is the RB20E, which is an SOHC 2.0L RB (sorta like a 2.0L version of the Aussie RB30E engine out of the VL and R31). Next best was the RB24S which is a 2.4L 6 cylinder carby engine.

We have under 40 cefiro's here in the whole of the UK. All were imported from Japan and most are the RB20E engine with automatic box's. 2JZ into a cefiro. You folks in Aus and Malasia are just on another level to most of the tuners here in the UK.

Most tuners in the UK wouldn't know where to start, there are a few acceptions (WMS, Mayer etc) However a lot of people would just dismiss it as something that "can't be done"

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
