Car: '97 (JZX100) Toyota Chaser Tourer V

Colour Dark Green/Black (looks black in most light)

Engine: 1JZ GTE VVTi single turbo

Gearbox: 4Sp Auto

Price: $16600

I am the first Australian owner of this car which was bought as a grade 4B (very good condition) car from the auctions in Japan. It already had a new timing belt, the 3 piece, 17" Intelesse wheels, Rs*R lowered suspension, air filter, 3" stainless exhaust, and Dvd/Vcd player, and TRD front grille fitted.

Since purchase, I have fitted smoked front indicators, a full Trust Spec-M intercooler kit, Torsen LSD, 3" downpipe, and an Apexi Power FC ECU.

The car has been modified for economy (leaving plenty of potential for further performance from the current setup, and other mods, if desired), and after fitment of the above parts, gained both power (now 265HP at the wheels), and economy (gained about 100km per tank). It has been fastidiously maintained, and perfectly reliable. One of the best presented, sensibly modied Chasers in the country: mature enthusiast owner means all work has been carried out by professionals, and no corners cut.

Any enquiries, please either call me 0413003013, or email: [email protected]

Cheers,

Micah

Thanks for the offer, but I have another car already in compliance, so am looking for an outright sale.

Good luck with the sale!

Manual conversion would be around $5500-$6k if you paid to have all work done....assuming you could find a decent R154 Gearbox. That said, a Manual in the same condition as mine should have about a $8k premium, so I guess it would be a cost-effective exercise, if you look at it that way...

The cheaper option would be to get MV automatics to shift-kit the auto, and strengthen it, then retune the transmission and engine for better performance with the Power FC, and have a rip-snorting auto for very little outlay.

I know there's no substitute for 3 pedals, but auto suits these cars, IMO....

Thanks for the comments and free bump!

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
