Chaser spotted


Recommended Posts

I saw my first chaser (Mk4 I think but dont quote me) today whilst launching the boat to go fishing :rolleyes:

This was at the boat ramp at the end of Katanning street just off Guilford rd. If you know your geography this is on the same street as A&B auto's who are a compliance mob. It was black with chrome deep dish 5-7 or so spoke mags and was a manual with blowoff valve.

I could tell it was a manual and had a blowoff valve cause the driver was umm erm testing the handling characteristics of the car:rolleyes:

I'm not sure if it had dealer plates or not so does anyone know if they can be complied as yet or is the sevs procedure still being gone through?

Anyways it was bloody schmick, sounded awesome and although very camry/cressida looking it made me look 5 or 6 times.

P.S. Ken your GTR hasn't moved from the front carpark since Tuesday except to bring it in at night. Dont be suprised if they take longer than quoted...again :D

Hi Rhino,

As of now there was only one importer who could get the Chaser 2.5twin-turbo (JZX90) in, and that is Cannington Auto Wholesale, Frank is the owner and I think the cars go for $25K. I do believe that C-red are bringing them in soon, as they make awesome drift cars. The Chaser, Mark II and Tourer V are all the same car with minor differences.

There are also a number of LX90's , which is a 2.4L diesel turbo , my mate owns one, they look good, use F/A fuel but have no real performance.

See'ya:burnout:

GTS-4OrCeD,

Unfortunately most of the ones around are LX90's, the turbo diesel. You can tell as they have the down-turned exhaust. The 1JZ engine is fantastic, what I used to have in my Supra, so although they don't look quick they can hand your ass to you if you don't expect it.

See'ya:burnout:

Guys,

My Mark II is a JZX100. I also had a Mark II JZX90 which I got rid of. Both the 90 and the 100 are available in Chaser, Cresta and Mark II, with different front and rear ends basically. As a guide my JZX100 has 260 odd rwhp and is as quick as the GTAAH rolling start. Its fcken nuts. We'll have compliance available for the JZX100 within 2 or 3 months.

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
