Yeah, I like the body styling, altho interior I suspect will be as bland as other Toyotas... Unless someone recolour some trim parts with other colours like silver or woodgrain... depends on which style they want..

the orignal version of that engine (mk3 supra and soarer) had the twin turbo's. in later model cars ie the jzx100 they dropped the two small turbos for a single larger one. its more responsive and less laggy aparently.

then, how come all the jzx100s listed at j-spec auction data are twin turbos???

I think the single turbos were pretty dam rare. The 92 supras had singles and they got vvTi as well. Most of the 1jz's out there are twins dunno why maybe they started concerntrating on the 3.0 2jz and gave up on the old tech.

Even on some supra lots of ppl modify them into a single turbo conversion, as it is far cheaper than buying two sets of turbo and a good single turbo will do the job well.

Alternatively, I think it won't be long until someone stick in a twin turbo charged 2JZGTE engine from a Supra into a Chaser JZX100... Dunno if that can be achieved as gearbox mount, driveshaft length etc could be different. But the engine bay suppose to fit as it looks larger than a Supra.

    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
