    spiller's JZA70 build-up

    The wheels are lenso d1r 18x10 and 18x9 in pretty agressive offsets. I absolutely love them a) because not too many people run them on supras and b) they were dirt cheap compared to say work emotion which is also CAD. Ma70r, previous owner swapped in the analouge dash from the jza70 front cut...

    Drop and Roll: Lowered MKIIIs + Aftermarket Wheel Showroom

    they are called Lenso D1R. Released to compete with the work emotion range of wheels, mainly aimed at the drift crew. i originally had them on my JZA80 but kept them when i sold it as i thought they'd look great on my JZA70. btw they have been powdercoated satin black, they usually come with a...

    Oil thermostat - quick question

    thanks for the insight dude! are you using s similar style of thermostat? the only downside(s) I can see is that it "bypasses" the oil filter so technically the "dirty" oil is going through the cooling core at the end of its cycle. also, can you recommend a specific size/brand of core? B&M seem...

    Oil thermostat - quick question

    actually on second thoughts, can the above adaptor be used with the oil filter on top of it? (i.e. the adaptor is "sandwiched" between the engine block and the oil filter?)

    Oil thermostat - quick question

    Hi guys, im looking at going to a full flow oil cooler kit and want to keep it as simple as possible - that means no remote filter relocation (dont need it, cant reach mine fine). I just want to use a sandwich adapter with thermostat included and -10 An fittings and run lines to and from the oil...

    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    Thanks for the kind words! Stretching the tyres would be much easier but I like as much tyre on there as possible - they aren't over-tyred as such, it's pretty well spot on but I think once I lower the front more I will destroy the guards whether they are rolled or not. So, I might get 5mm or so...

    Drop and Roll: Lowered MKIIIs + Aftermarket Wheel Showroom

    just test fitted my wheels today... 18x9 +15 front (245/45) 18x10 +22 rear (275/35) pretty happy with the outcome, although still needs a drop and roll :p

    spiller's JZA70 build-up

    also test fitted my 18s... specs are: 18x9 +15 front (245/40) 18x10 +22 rear (275/35) im actually really happy with the fitment as I was a little uncertain as to how they would go on the A70. Obviously the guards will need to be rolled but once I get some coilovers in there and...

    spiller's JZA70 build-up

    so true Andrew, A70s are much harder than 80s (much older, less aftermarket support etc) but the fact that you are driving soemthing that is more unique, is to me, a rewarding feeling. OK, gave it a wash this morning as it had some small birdshit stains on it and i didnt want to store it away...
