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.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
