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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • 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.
