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!

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
