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.

did you just reveal his 'top secret' :P

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

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
