E30 "Mad tyte jdm" 1JZ-GTE build

[EuroNut]

I can barely read that word let alone know what it means.

So happy this car is where it's at, rather excited to get the exhaust done on it and to see it out touring around with me

I think he means unique?

Can't wait to get it on the road!

The wheels "are".






Bad pun I guess.

I sure like that radiator support piece jobbie you made there.

This car is really slick.

very nice job on the rad support, wicked to see it done right
i've made a heap of progress on my sr20 swap, finally got it mounted and running this weekend and sending the driveshaft to get cut and shut this week.
ha ha love how you do a little bit and then think, hmm i might just put the grill back in- to see how it'll look and then can't help yourself but put it all on. if i could find a manual pedal box i'd be on the road by a fortnight but people think they're gold plated apparently.. yours can't be too far off driving, what you got left?

Thanks dude. The front end is actually on for good now lol. I just have to finish the brackets for the seats, build some exhaust ( going to try and get some oval tubing due to ground clearance issues). Get the coolant lines all finalized, and depending on the feel of the brakes, I might install my new pedal box and manual brakes conversion before it hits the road for good. the car needs new lca bushings, ball joints, wheel bearings, and axles too, but i might get it on the road first and bring it to my buddies shop to get all that done. and congrats on getting the sr swap running!

Hey man what fan set up are you running? My unshrouded efans don't cut it in traffic.

[HoodRide]

Nice work man looks ace.

I'm running one 16" e pusher fan...im hoping that with the aluminum rad, and the royal purple coolant additive, it will stay cold enough..

By some crazy force I've managed to miss this up until now. I have read every single page and post. I love it all.

I've been so demotivated just doing the simplest of OEM swaps, I can't imagine a 2 year long swap. So much respect for you. Keep it up, it'll be so worth it!


Also, Burgundrot!
Also also, I want updates!

I've been waiting on my front spacers to show up, and it seems that they finally shipped out yesterday. I've been putting off working on the car as i needed a break, and i bought myself a vintage motorcycle to keep me occupied (next project vehicle). Once my spacers get here I just need to build myself some oval tubing exhaust, and wire in the rad fan/ temp sensor.

updates will follow

[EuroNut]

got my spacers in the mail....














excuse the dirt, we dont have any water out at our shop.











and a little walk around video of the car, with the new bike

Amazing. I love this. Rear needs a little more low IMO but if you are going for performance then you probably don't want to go lower.

[EuroNut]

I know the rear has to come down...already took the adjusters out...that's just the coil spring....but the tires already rub like a bastard just pulling in and out of the shop (just rears)
