A JZX with some history... build thread?

[Agraff]

Yo! I don't think I've made a build thread for this car, I couldn't find one at least.

A little bit of history... this car was purchased off a mate in 2013 in Okinawa, Japan. I drove it there for another 2 years and then brought it to Italy with me. I now have it here in the UK with me and it gets abused as it should.

I'll try to post updates if anyone is keen for it? Currently been installing a Link ECU G4X into the car, so it's been off the road but got it running last night! I will post a full spec list and some more pictures when I get a chance, but for now I'll leave you with this photo...

Updates?

Oh shoot. Not much to update ! Did driftmasturi and thrashed the car! Currently building a new engine as the current one is quite tired in the compression department. I’ll pop some more pics up !

Stock crank, bc rods, je pistons. Bc springs and retainers, and other bits. Not going up in power or anything, just a reliable ripper.

I remember buying the Banzai February 2020 magazine just to see this car.

So this happened…

And then this happened. New engine is in the car and rips hard. Jack Tonkin did the sauce on the map. Runs sweet.

And then absolutely beat the hell out of the new engine and the car. Drove it home with no issues
