Reply With QuoteSo much junk out! How much would it weigh at a guess?
What engine is going into it?
JZZ30 are cool, I don't know why more people don't do them.

Have been entertaining the idea of a zz30 chassis for a while now, they can be found cheap as chips now with broken air bag suspension and as rolling shells, most people I know in these parts just pull them apart for the donks and toss the rest.
I also like the underpinnings, suspension etc, pretty much a jza80 anyway, just uglier on the outside, but they have grown on me lately.
So came across a jzz30 minus engine and box for cheeeep!
So far stripped the bejezuss out of it, everything superfluous to the basic needs of driving it too and from the track, and believe me there is a LOT of superfluous in these!
Left the wiring loom tails just before the lights and on the column and some of the dash cluster, the heater box is gone, ABS, A/C, cruise control all of the interior etc etc
The amount of little brackets and bolts and the size of the wiring loom amazed me, the car before stripping sat nosed up with no engine and trans, stripped it sits dead level lol
Also realised weeks after having the car that it had a set of 17x8 and 17x9's, but both the 8s were bolt on one side and the 9s the other.
Someone has hit them with the black rattle can and they look shite, but upon pulling them off I realised they weighed fark all...
Had a look on the back and they are Speed Stars, nice surprise, can anyone identify the model?
So got to it and fitted a jza80 clutch and brake pedals box’s and a set of Silkroad coilovers.
Plan on stripping the sound deadener out next.

Yeah plans are a vvti 2j, would love to go a v160 but christ they go for good money as a package.
Likely just a hilux r150 box converted with an auto bellhousing and concentric slave.
Keeping it to around 300kw atw or less and responsive and the box should last well.
Top feed injectors, AEM managment, single high mount with a split pulse flange, undecided on the wizzer just yet, but likely a kinugawa.
Plan to mount the engine back about 25mm which is better for the shifter position weight distribution and this will also allow the intercooler to be mounted behind the rad panel so as the cooler piping can be nice and short.
Also remove the fuel tank mounted behind the rear seat and fit a floor mounted fuel cell, a better no fuss setup and will lower the CG a bit in the back.
Sounds rad.
My friend is selling an AEM setup for 2JZGTE if you are keen send me a message.
V160 is crazy money and the clutches too. I'd just run an R box if it's around 300kw.
Your wagon was sick and I'm sure this will be loads of fun too. Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing the build progress.

It has been a while between updates but things are moving along.
Got hold of a 2j vvti from an Aristo just before xmas cheeep, came with a cut loom and a missing air flow meter but neither matter as I wont need them.
It did also have a damaged vvti solenoid in transit as it sticks out so far.
I have the engine up on a stand at the moment to remove all the crap I dont need and give the donk a tidy and a birthday with a
genny water pump, timing belt, tensioner and tensioner pulley, full engine gasket kit and replacement crank pulley.
Got onto a pair of 38mm Tial wastgates from a guys RB26 build that he was no longer going through with, 400 for the pair...winning.
Tomei 2-way at the ready to bang reliable duallies.
