Like the Sandlot: you had a special edition gold oil cap, built by TRD, and you took it out and actually played with it?!?! (…..and actually played with it???)
After you put about 15 grand in it, or more, if we have to, overnight parts from Japan. (Also crazy that the guy at Toyota his name is Jesse!) Edit: Bcuz of the title.. 🤷
I feel you so much David. I just bought an E30 and had to replace a bunch of the 30-year-old cooling system and I had to stop what I was doing 3 times for a mundane but bizarrely specific parts.
2JZ,the God👑of all engines🥳 get a M3 dct,dsg Transmission and powered the 2JZ. New technologies powering the old and still the best around engine. JZ Engine then,now,forever!
I feel you on the oil cap. I would have been out there like cal trans workers. Finding authentic parts for a 20 year old car is tough and expensive. I still have a stock oil cap because I refuse to put knock off stuff on my car. JDM all day thanks for the video
i agree needs to be a car that doesnt look like a honda civic like either a old 2000LB car with style or a x chassis. x8 is sleek, x9 is light weight and 100 is style.
@@megarafjogos Why would they? Well so they can call it a Toyota and it actually be one maybe? You mean it's a perfect BRZ, as far as laggy and heavy. The car weighs no were near 4k and the lag can be fixed with a twin turbo set up. Unlike yourself we as enthusiast would like a real Toyota sports car. Not a Z4 or a BRZ or example.
@@AKAT1980 it would mess up the balance. The car is perfectly fine as it is. It has a 2.4L boxer 4, which brings the weight and center of mass way down, while having enough power to send the rear end sliding around any corner. Why do you even care about putting a 2JZ on a gr86? Seriously, it wouldn't bring anything worthy to the table... "oH iT WAs MaDe bY tOYoTAa iN tHE 90S". The engine is way heavier, longer, wouldn't pass emissions, the center of gravity is way higher ( especially when you take into account those twin turbos), and it's nowhere near as responsive as the N/A boxer... If you must have something 100% toyota, get a GR yaris. The new GR86 is perfect as it is, save your 2jz money and waste it on tyres and fuel.
@@megarafjogos Well to answer your question you can re-read my last comment. As far as everything else is concerned. I wasn't talking about using that engine with that cars setup. I'm talking about building the car from scratch to work with the 2JZ engine. If emissions was such a big deal we wouldn't have 6.4 Dodges running around here. Why do you care to have a Subaru motor in a Toyota? If you like that platform get a Subaru. You sound contradictory as well because Subaru has used the same outdated engine platform for years. Plus, the fact that you told a car enthusiasts to get a Yaris shows this is not your playing field. But it's ok, you got the car you want and I have the Nissan Z. So we both have what we want. You can get a under powered Subaru and I can get a real sports car like the Z.
B58 is as close as you can get to a modern version of it with current emissions and economy restrictions. Only major differences between the motors is that the b58 comes single turbo stock and that it has direct injection
.I love cars too (I have a 2017 Corvette C7 with the fun manual transmission) but it ain't free and stocks are one way to make money. ,.,,.,,AMAZON: Yep, I bought a ton on the dip. It's getting cheaper relative to its current earnings (half compared to last year). ...With the Delta virus coming at full speed ahead, pandemic sales will make a comeback. Amazon's not going anywhere so I know that eventually it will come back. Fidelity considers Amazon as a large growth company (probably because as big as it is, it still only has 7% of the retail market) buying via Amazon Smile donations donates some money to my favorite charity too! Get on board or be runover, it's up to you.
