My R32 Gtst 1Jz Gte Build

[88cameron88]

I used to have a VR SS Commodore with a 1jz, sold it 11 months ago.

Thats when the depression hit

So 11 months later im back!

This time im throwing a 1jz in an r32 skyline

I love the 1jz, theres nothing better, so i went down and picked up a halfcut from sydney yesterday.

Grabbed an r32 a few weeks ago for pretty much nothing, infact i made money on the deal.

So here goes, this build is going to be bigger and better then the last, stay tuned as hopefully this thing is going to move pretty fast, because i wanna be out tearing up the streets allready!!!

i have started repairing the gutter rash on the work wheels, had to weld one up.

dismantling them and painting the centres black and im polishing the alloy piece.(dish and lip)

i think this will look pretty sick!

Going to get the conversion done, engine in and running with a new haltech that i got for a steal.

then pull the motor out next year after its engineered and do a full engine build.

Going to paint the engine bay satin black... .what do you think????

where did you find a manual JZZ30 half cut?

Mustve cost a mint

and do you want to sell me some bits out of it?

[88cameron88]

its not manual, its auto. got it for $890

iam selling the auto and buying an r154 manual

sure what parts do u want mate???

[zebra]

Damn....Wanted the pedal box/clutch master

[88cameron88]

ah sorry mate.

need to sell the 1jz auto though, so looking for someone to take that off my hands!!

look forward to seeing how this turns out, good choice on changing the auto box, maunual is so much better. r154 boxes are good, i put one on the 2jz cressida me and my brother built.

and zebra i sourced a manual halfcut a few years back for 2,500 you just need to know where to look

nice mate, if i could put a 1j in the gtr i would trust me !!!

[88cameron88]

yeah they are the sickest motor ever, i love em.

iam picking up an r154 for 1200 so far this has been the bargain build, lets hope it continues along this way!!!

is it true that it is hard to wire a toyota motor to nissan shell because something to do with the ohm being different

[88cameron88]

havent heard about this before???

I cant see it being too much of an issue as im basically using everything toyota anyway, just splicing into nissan for headlights, instrument cluster and simple stuff like that.

Someone buy my rb205 speed gearbox so i have a bit more cash to throw at this!!!!!! bargain $430

[bigjiz]

i love 1js as well before i had my gtr i had a soarer (z30) with a 1j in it and i run low 12 's all day with minor mods and now my gtr has had oil pump failer (engine still fine) i really want to put a 1j or 2j in it but i think theres to much involed

[88cameron88]

yes there would be a lot involved. just build a 30dett. that was my other option for this car, but i just wanted to be different

[88cameron88]

Well today i removed the single wheeling diff to see what is going on.

Turns out someone has welded the centre and something has broken majorly inside the centre.

I have sourced another diff, probably shim it up nice and tight and fit a lockout bar and alloy subframe bushes.

on the lookout for a mechanical lsd, preferably 2 way if anyone can help me out!!!

[88cameron88]

UPDATE!!!

Picked up an r154 gearbox on monday night

shimmed up the diff tight as, refitting it tomorrow along with a lockout bar.

Also resprayed the engine bay 2 pack satin black, came up great.

Its all coming together now!!!

f**king awesome mate! Cant wait to see the final product.
