shorty

Love it phil! Shes a stunner. Is chris mapping it again?

Most 90's very early 00's toyota's are easy enough to work on tbh mate. Great thing about toyota engines. Basic mechanical power

Haha i know needs some coilovers badly! Or some gs300 sport shocks and springs as a quick fix lol.

Done best beer I've bought lol.

And yea man they are litrally nuts lol

Sweet even better then. And yea man the lexus gs300 came with a 2jz-ge and the aristo came with the 2jz-ge and 2jz-gte. Best of it is every one thinks its a lexarse gs300 and then it takes off like a stabbed rat lol.

Already got cat back and 2nd decat, mate has a 1st decat with restrictor ring sat to one side for me. I've an ebc and 2 lower mileage turbos sat here just need fcd and pump and im ready really.

And my e46 323 was also auto lol and the 335d msport im after next is too haha. But i drive a van 5 out of 7 days for work so less of a hipocrite and more of a lazy thing but yea auto haha. Tell ya what the 2jz is fookin awesome though

Im maybe thinking fully polished and make the blue band black? Or keep it blue?

Yea 1700kgs with 280hp is still very quick though and mine is pushing a bit more than that. I've a few bits left to sort and it will be 400hp and while being sat in a lazy boy armchair haha. Stock internals will take 600hp and forged well 2jz's have done 1200hp+ haha no starlet will do that.

wheels are on. Just need to chose a refurb colour/idea.

^^^^

Disagree, nukes equal the start of world war3. Watch the movie "war games" is an old skool film where it proves no one wins a nuke war. And if/when ww3 kicks off the usa is the only real back up we will have. Without them we would be dead/lose/be over run. They are a super power. We arnt. Simple.

Tbh mate 4.6 is a bargin for what you got and i love the e60 but the nimbleness of the e90 apeals for me. That said the room in the aristo may sway me to an e60 as there is so much in the aristo its silly. Looks like you have a very very clean car here. Will hold its value really well too even with another 20k miles on.

And cheers, the aristo is a cool car indeed. Just not as fuel efficient as a diesel

Enjoy it mate. Im after an e90 335d M-sport next just need to buy a house first lol. Your very lucky to find one thats such low mileage! The 5 is a lovely size too. Like being in a limo. Same as my aristo like you say total contrast to starlets. Any plans for it?

Wicked car! I love bmw's big time. Still miss my e46 even though it drank like fook! Im after another bmw in the not so far future. Lush cars, great build quality. Enjoy it mate.

Contact the site in the quote I've put up. They do custom forged shafts from $210 thats really not alot atal. No one has off the shelf parts for an ep85. Its the joy of rare cars. The japs didnt really mod them either so there are no jap performance parts for them. Clearly they knew something we didnt.

Shipley are good for this sort of thing too

Lol you miss the point that company does custom shafts. Have you emailed them? Or shall i do more work for you? I dont really know what your after mate? You asked where to get them I've given you the info. If you cant work out from here then best get a different car lol.

Around 5-7k id say if its mint is about th going rate. Not that they go often tbh.

^^

Haha love you too cock chops

Ok my bad i got my ae86's confused. Direct quote from uksc and the legend of starlets that is Enzo (dont care what anyone thinks he knew/knows his shit!)

"rear axle sizes are 24 mm which is the same as the zenki (early shape) ae86 corolla

so any lsd for that rear diff fits into this diff cusco and kazz make lsds for this

also if you are aimng for big power I've also found a company that makes custom rear strengthened axles

as ths is onsidered the weakest point in the 4paws setup 24m is awfull thin

some eye candy!

I really hope he doesnt mind me sharing this but 4wd info is rare and few and far between tbh.

Haha cheers, they are a bit marmite tbh, the gf hates em but i love em. Very jdm lol

Well few bits sorted so far. The passenger vent missing in the first post has been sourced and fitted, a new rear arm rest has been fitted as on the old one the leather had slipped and showed off the foam behind which looked grubby.

The smokey turbos will be coming off and replaced by the new low mileage ones I've now got. Got a new set of aristo badges to swap back from the lexarse ones.

Added wind deflectors

Added new mats from japland

New black grill to replace flaky lexarse one

and some new shoes

18" 9j Volk challenge F Zero alloys. Not sure what colour to do yet etc but i love em. Will see what they look like on the car when they show up

Few other little bits to update some when but this is mainly it for now.......

They look epic, i quite like the matt look too before the lacquer tbh.

Mental! Looks savage mate. Bear in mind tok its the same size shaft as an ae86 on most ep85's so worth doing some measurements there as you can use ae86 shafts and they are already available from some places. Also the kouki ae86 rear diff works too.

Meh, im not fussed, more space is handy my cars huge haha

2jz-gte case closed. Best bang for th buck, basic upgrades and its over 400hp! (Just buy shares in shell Vpower haha)
