Gem ran a real 430ish on a standard engine with td06 for a few seasons, with pistons and cams on top of that combo 480 out of reach compared to the extra weight and expense for that power with the JZ.
Like i said best of luck with it man, just seems a waste for the weight and ponies you are going for, not having a dig at ya so no need to get all defensive :)
You can buy a sr22 striker kit from apex in the uk for 1100 sterling! Be handi built just need to bore the block to fit 87mm pistons but I thnk 1js are just epic the sound alone! This build will be class either way ha
480hp in a 4 cylinder and 480hp in a 6 cylinder are 2 completely different kettles of fish, and the jz will be more reliable in that power figure compared to an sr. Good luck with the build Ant, so far all generations of this car is getting better and better
I will have the jz bought with new turbo . manifold and so on for same price worked it all out.
ya the jz sounds amazing
cheers dec. Ya I dont think I can do much more to in now after this conversion ha. Will need a new project me thinks ha. Jz s15 ;)
some major developments lad.
From what I remeber could be wrong but this was your first real attempt at building a drift car . hats off for the work gone in top class. 1J will be awesome
