WTF to do with lux?

[747]

if you search around i have seen some at that price.

it would have been 6 months since i saw one at that price.

if you want to go really cheap, get a 2jzge run it on methanol, just like rocco, problem sovled.

Yeah i got a late model 2jzgte (with vac brake banjo bolt) for $2500 with 80,000km, auto and ECU.

They are out there, just got to look (and pounce when they come up).

So < 1200 without tray????

If I was starting from scratch I would DEFINITALY go 2jz (no shit)

[GSRman]

i'd guess <1150 without tray - but it would bag with the 4y-auto with the tray off... even less if it was a single cab i'd recon...

At the time i was doing the conversion a 2J cut was $6,500+ and i would have had to go single at the same time..

So would it be better off doing a 1jz front cut/engine pack for 1500 and then throwing a 2jzge bottom end in later????

Can you get those cheap ebay single manifolds for the 1j?

A: you could.. but im pretty skeptical of the whole non gte thing.. oil squirters and such.. either go 2J or don't..


seriously, as much as every now and then i want a 2j in mine.. without 4-linking it and stuff, it wouldn't be able to use the power it would have with the 1j + with a reasonable sized single..

B: doesn't really matter, don't think they would fit.
