I only said 2J, and besides even IF mine had a 2JZ-GTE it wouldn't be worth 15k. 5spd would blow in no time, along with its crapy 2/1 pot brakes... still rather spend the coin on a decent RZ.

All I want is to know what i'n means? you used it more than 3 times in one post so it's clearly not a spelling mistake. never seen that abbreviation before...

also, found the perfect one for you.

it's in WA AND it comes with a 2JZ.. asking price is $99,000 but surely much easier than buying one allll the way over east. makes me wonder how all those people import cars from even further away than say sydney. places like japan even. they must be nuts.

I did have one problem with your engine transplant idea though. all the JZA80 supras I could find for sale, yes even the ones in WA, all had 2JZ engines already fitted to them?!?! WTF? their owners must have beaten you to it and installed the 2JZ. maybe you could ask one to sell you one without the 2JZ engine in it, and then you can do the transplant?

there is an awesome supra I've seen in japan (not one of the tops eecret built ones) with a nice built RB26 in it making around 750ps, with sequential 6 speed box etc and lots of gear. I actually like it. it would annoy a few folks though. top secret started sticking RB26 into supras cause he 'knew' how to tune the 26 and thought it was god's gift to engine bays. I did like his GT300 inspired 3SGTE powered supra though. that thing was cool.

Whoever built that car is a wealthy master troll.

Have to say I'd be doing similar things if I had the money to burn.

His name is Smokey and he is no troll !

and Beer Baron, when looking for Rb26 Supras one of the google images links was in your gallery Lol

Could you put the AWD drivetrain in that too? Sure the soop would weigh quite a bit, but an AWD Supra would be sweet.

This engine does not need internal combustion to operate, pressure from that turbo alone will suffice lol. You just need to tow start it and build the revs up to 10,000 first :P

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
