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.

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
