love the Top Secret TE37s, but those fenders are horrible. even if the style is not to my taste (which it's not) at least they quality could have been good, but it's terrible. The engine work also looks like arse, but the idea does have some merit and if it runs well will be quite fast. considering the car was possibly stolen in japan and sold to someone in UAE for $10 or $20K then it's not a bad way to build a cheap fun car.

still such a butchered car by now considering the LHD conversion, the dodgy kit and the engine swap. :(

Haha yeah.

GTR with:

- Maxima dashboard

- Supra Engine

- No 4wd

- Botched widebody disaster

- Cheap and nasty respray

God i hate this more than anything.

Top secret TE37's they may be but considering how dodgy the rest of the car is they're probably resprayed VORK RAVS or regular TE/LE37's at best....

I don’t mind it.. Then again the Toyota motor is a far superior motor to any Nissan motor *waits for Nissan groupies* You all know its true.

There is a Gtst-4 in Thailand with a 2jz, with a butchered 4wd system. Seems to work..

where can i find more info on this?

It was on a google search.

I was searching things like 2jz skyline conversion, 2jz R32 conversion, 2jz R32 engine mounts ect. The link will be a Thailand performance forum

The idea is Awesome. But I agree that its a shit idea to ruin a AWD car just to fit a FAR SUPERIOR ENGINE They should have left the Nissan engine if they couldn't be bothered getting the AWD to work. That said, any RWD Nissan deserves a 2JZ or even a 1JZ.

12.5 @ 115mph, stock ECU, stock turbos stock auto.

BTW anyone wanting to fit a 2JZ with stock turbos in a Nissan PM me. I have a special dump and front pipe that crosses under the engine and re routes to the passenger side. It has good ground clearance. I am upgrading to a single turbo and won't need it. (top dump section has since been HPC coated in silver)

omg just chill, if the owner wanted a 2jz, that fine. i like the wide body kit. i dont see nothing wrong with it.

maybe he wanted the r34gtr shell but doesnt like the rb26 or 4wd, ever herd off bog? most 4wd cars suffers that.

and who the f**k says "poorly executed", that thing pull 600+rwhp untuned wtf.

who gives a f**k what u think all think of the car. toyota make dam good engines. and just when did modifying your car involes someones else opinion. if he wanted the 2jz good on him.

thats a great conversion if they retained the 4wd, and how do u guys know they havent? i dont think fitting the gtr sump upto the 2jz would be that hard with an adaptor plate same as they do to rb30s. i'd go a 2jz over rb26 anyday of the year :P why have a built motor for 600hp+ when u can run stock internals and do it easy :P checkout the yank supraforums and u guys will start to realise the 2jz is alot stronger than the 26's in holding big power. ive got a jun 2.7L rb26 so dont think im against 26s at all i just know the money i spent i could of got a stock 2jz and made the same power with a monster turbo and 1/4 of the $$$.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
