Project DD

[empera]

so i picked this up yesterday for 1300, it has a BHG and some small issues that an old high mileage (230k) would have. So i am still wondering if i should go with another 2jzge (Na), 2jzge-t, or 2jzgte if i can find a good deal. Either way it'll be a nice project for me. I've always loved these cars and it should turn out to be a great NA if i can get everything fixed.

Pics.

Thanks,
-emp.

so head gasket and a wash and your good to go?

 

[empera]

yea pretty much, and the driver side window is stuck down...depending on price and budget might even got 2jzgte.

 

[Mk3runner]

sounds like a great dd in the making. maybe just na-t?

 

[empera]

yea if i can find a cheap na engine i'll do that.

lets hope so Ian...lets hope so...LOL

A bud here has an SC400 that I've driven a couple of times

They're so damn cheap and make so much more sense than an MA anything

 

[empera]

could be true, i've been looking at the na-t possibility. Should be interesting to see how i'll feel about the supra in a couple of months

Personally I'd sell the Supra if I bought an SC
(watch me get burnt at the stake)

Since you need to do a hg anyways, I'd go NA-T, so its "convenient" to lower the compression and go fast.

 

[silversup]

NA!!! You need to keep a ride that will get some normal gas mileage....u have the supra for lightning fast speeds....

 

[empera]

lol we'll see wat happens...

 

[IJ.]

Modern tech done right you can have both

 

[empera]

ok im having a hard time finding a local 2jzge replacement....wonder if its worth changing the HG on a 230k engine...no milky oil not much of smoke...but getting exhaust gases in coolant...creating lots of pressure and such.

R&J distributing, they'll find you one for pretty cheap shipped.

 

[silversup]

find a low mileage ge and lets swap that damn thing already...then no need to worry about the HG...O yea i forgot to say...welcome to the dark side :evil2: You r now a 1J/2J bro
