warning: they are not 56k friendly.

after a few days of driving it all i can say is that it truly kicks ass, if your in the se suburbs of Melbourne you might see me cruising about. go the 2JZ!!!

Hey Jason! Good to see your beast on the road.

LOL might have to convince Craig to come by in his Aristo to take a pic next to yours. He loves teh Aristo's (as do most of the boys at J-Spec). The VIPBOY Aristoid is identical to yours except I think you've got factory cupholders and a sunroof.

That's nice and clean - I was going to get one of these, but decided on the Cosmo instead.

So tell us - how does it go ?? Give us the low down and review !

Looking forward to hearing about it.

Are you going to mod it ??

Cheers,

^^^^^^ yes basically the aristo is the 2JZGTE a twin turbo 3.0litre.

the chaser depending on age is a 2.5litre twin turbo(older models) or the VVTi single turbo (95 onwards i think). very nice cars. excellently set up for drift as standard.

Bollocks. Chasers are just run of the mill family sedans. They'll drift with some suspension work.

Chasers got a 1JZ from memory, wheras Aristo's got the 2JZ (incidentally Aristo's came with the 2JZ BEFORE the supra's :)... so in fact the Supra is a 2 door coupe with an Aristo engine if you wanna get picky).

i was just saying what i've read and heard. tehy are popular with younger guys and gals in japan who are getting into drifting. cause they have the balls to get sideways and stay out there. tricked up suspension helps even more.

theres actually a variety of chaser like cars made by toyota. the Mark II, the chaser, the tourver V and the Grande. the grande came with N/A 2 JZ the other came with 1JZ twinturbo or single turbo.

Chaser's come in manual whereas Aristo's don't, and I think Chaser's weigh a good couple of hundred kg less than the Aristo (but don't quote me) I also think you can get an AWD Aristo.. very rare and mighty heavy at something in the region of 1900kg o_0

That aristo wouldnt happen to be the one running on the dyno at my bro's shop last saturday was it?

nah hasnt been dynoed yet.

all up cost about 17K and thats for a 95 model that is very clean with a true 77K kms, sunroof, factory cruise controll and 12 stacker cd player.

just did about 200k's in it today and i must say it has some balls in stock form. with an exhaust and some more boost this thing is going to tear it up hardcore

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
