Thats awsome, why you ask, why bloody not, the thing would scream, I went in one years ago with a pos 4 cyl na which was pretty fast, would sound sweet to opened up.

if that thing sinks i think i'd cry....

well der car boats have been done before... half of the asian boats are made like this....

But has anyone seen a 2jz with a big single top mount on it before on a dodgey boat like this? I think not

Is it just me or does that boat look like a prime candidate for filling with water the first time he nails the throttle?

I've run up and down many rivers in Asia (especially Thailand) (and in the ocean occasionally) on boats like this... they go like stink in a straight line, expescially the big ones on Mae Naam Chao Phraya that can seat about 20 people... but because the direction of push from the propeller is centered in the motor about 1m above the waterline, they have to stop and just edge the boat a little bit at a time to turn it... when they get it pointed where they want it, the drop the prop back into the water, open the taps, and they go like stink...

So any little runabout would eat them, since they can't turn, but they are great fun... kinda reminds me of all of the pussy drag cars, racing means cornering :D ...

BTW, they are generally built like this because of the shallow draft, and because there is usually a lot of floating weeds in the river, so they can easily lift to prop out of the water to clear it...

ya but the 2jz is still more reliable than 2 F440 engines lol....

Why the hell would you waste those engines on an ugly red boat?

Because you have that much money you have weird dreams and then go "you know what, im going to get some one to build that". lol.

Also millionairs have Ferrari's, other millionairs have big boats, then there is billionaires that build ferrari boats.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
