Still no progress on the JZ swap. Been incredibly busy with work and life in general. But here are more photos of the wagon!
Also. Bought my girlfriend a car and we decided to make it nice. So HAD to persuade her to buy a cressida. Sold her car, Put all that money in her savings account and my friend hooked me up on this x8.
had coils and BV rear arms. Car needed a lot of work so we Paid the registration which was $675
had to buy a battery
had to recharge the AC, Got the car tinted, took off all the stickers, Bought these crown vics for $100 plus a pack of marlboro reds. Bought brand new tires. Changed outer tie rods and more. All done within the last 3 days.
then BAM!
I DONT like the rear camber at all. Going to get alignment today and fix it. especially since I replaced the tie rods and lowered it more. More to come for sure!

ok, so haven't been driving the car lately because the motor was just sitting in the back. So I had to buy something to get motivation to work on it again...
soooooo got these bad boys. Wheels were only driven on like 10 times. Tires are brand new.
15x9.5 0 all around. with 205/50 azenis
made a drive to take the motor out and put it at my dad's shop. So I loaded everything up.
wheels fit decently. Front needed a little spacer to clear the coilover. Could use more.
Think the wheels look pretty good.

Ok so small update. Sold the wheels. Then my friend gave me a good deal on an NA 2J from an sc300. Came with front sump (on the side), serial nine mounts, all the accessories and manifolds, sc300 wire harness. Almost everything to get the car running. Now I'm on the hunt to find a w58 to jz bell housing...In hawaii, its pretty difficult.
Why is the rear so low??? because motor...
got this thing in the back of the wagon with assistance from some of my friends. It was so heavy, and my back is still sore from this stunt
IF anybody has advice on putting this thing into my car. It would be appreciated. I have the general idea. But more info is always welcomed!
here is the new daily. My friend with the 510 wagon sold it to me for $700. It has a password jdm 6in stretch, different handle bars and frame by the gas tank. so stoked!
Also got a pretty killer deal on this rep bride seat, buddy club rails and sparco steering wheel for $140. I have really awesome friends.
more updates soon!!!!!
