Soarer 2jzgte build/swap thread Slow but steady :D
Caution this thread will be picture heavy
k guys took my car to my shop today and gonna be hard to get stuff done but ima do my best... i got a 2j gte and r154 already along with little goodies lol.
Feel free to give your opinions and ideas
Current car specs aftermarket parts-
work equip m1's,
hks hypermax II coils,
5zigen fireball mufflers,
nrg quick release with nardi wheel.
VLED purple 6k HIDS,
97 side skirts,
and some other stuff i may be forgetting.
So to start people off i am a dual citizen with USA and Canada.. (lucky me bc JDM cars in canada are easy to have) i had a honda b4 this and sold it to pick up my TOYOTA SOARER 95 body style. 52000 miles. i got the car with hks hypermax II coils not installed work equip m1's and 5zigen fireball (not installed) picked up the car for 3000 dollars
When i first got it with the coils on and exhaust put carpet and panels in as well as it was gutted.. (will do black interior later or maybe just carpet)
THen i lowered it and looks so much better... not as low as it is now but ill take more pics of that later on
My RARE work Equip M1's
Now as she sits before i parked her... will post pics of under bay this next week and the tear down... I do like the flatter silver that came out in this shot as far as paint goes
THE BUILD PLANS
1) Go single turbo is my big plan for now... (debating to build the motor I.E. rods cams pistons etc.) or just go for 650whp and get a good tune. idk yet.
2) going to rebuild rims to be bigger and a bigger offset. thinking 18x10.5 rear 0 offset and 18x9.5 front 0 offset
3) also going with vertex rear bumper and wise front lip.
4)the rest u'll just have to stay tuned for
