MA61 complete 1J conversion, any interest?
|
Tue, 26 August 2003 12:34
|
 |
considering selling my 1 J conversion for MA61
this includes:
1J from JZA70 half cut, 70,000 ks
timing belt and any seal that could be replaced without dismantling the engine was done
new soarer water pump
tripple core radiator (new) never used.
engine mounts(bolt in to Ma61)
p/steer hoses :plugs into standard rack
reivoir (bolt in)
all intercooler piping and intercooler, all bolt in to MA61
stainless intake and cooler piping (drivers side) BOV (plumbed in)
Twin RB25 skyline turbos, roller bearing. on custom stainless manifolds.
complete 3.5 inch mandrel bent exhaust twin 2.5 dumps off the tubos into x pipe and out into twin 3inch high flow cats then out into 3.5
2JZGE bellhousing, clutch, fork, slave ect ect
2JZGE gearbox
the engine was originall manual and hence comes with a manual ecu
all the wiring is already done so the loom is plug in. just a coupple of power wires to connect. This conversion has evrything needed to put it in and start it up the same day, it is all there as it came out running.
im asking 7000 if there is any interest. and before you all have a crack at me for asking so much, in a previous thread it was already established that this conversion without aftermarket gear costs around 6.5 to 7K all told. and much much more than this has been spent. anyhu like i said expressions of interest, if there is none ill just wait till a body comes up.
cheers

It is an entire MA61 conversion
Complete bolt up
Ie.
Engine
Exhaust
Gearbox
Loom
ECU
The custom exhaust is exactly that, custom for an MA61, but can be altered for any car with a bit of work.
This however would be a weekend conversion for an MA61 and would save alooooooooooot of time and money.
I really don't know why he is selling this! SILLY MAN!
To me, this is actually quite a bargain, think you can do it for less, go ahead and make your day (or few months). All the fabrication is done and ready to rumble. 
Consider this a free bump!

i reckon you'd sell it real quick at $5000
i know u can pick the 1jz 1/2 cuts up for $1500 now from SSS.
I'm doing a converstion of a different kind and anyone who went and found the things themselves would prolly get it all done for less than $7k.
but good luck. you are making it easy as you are providing everything for an almost direct bolt up.

This is with a manual conversion, from a JZA80. The best possible box that 'fits' with shifter in the correct spot. (r154 goes in with work).
I would say buy that halfcut if you can get it for $1500! But im sure its auto, which means auto ECU, loom and no flywheel.
If you want to run a manual good luck finding all the bits and installing them!
The cheapest buy in route will not always be the cheapest end result. A lesson learnt.

as black supra said thats for a normal conversion AUTO!
this conversion is pretty quick, put it this way
this conversion +4 80kg guys and a full tank of gas kept up with a BMW M3 no dramas, what are they 250kw? outta factory??
i remember mick paid something like 3k for the piping and manifolds,
so i physically challenge you to do the same for same price

haha supraboy u fool... sss are the biggest rip off around... did you make sure that the 1/2 cut for $1500 comes with an engine?  
oz_ craig you forgot to mention that in that race the car wasnt even running properly... hadnt been tuned out of the 1/2 cut... running some kind of crazy mixture... and it went THAT well...
sorry supraboy but this engine is worth every penny... i sat in the passenger seat of the car that this engine powered a few times a week... so i kinda know that its worth whatever jaze asks... he knows his shit

sss auto arent rips offs
they have 1jzgte motor packages for $1500. They sell you the motor but keep the ECU once your ready to run the motor they give you the ECU and you have a months warranty with the car actually on the road. Its good service, i was very impressed when i went down to check out the 1j's they have. Very professional and helpful. Things not found at many importers.
as for jaze knowing his shit. Paying $800 for a set of engine mounts ?

I like the idea of ringing up a place and spending a little bit extra to get the mounts made up saving myself at least a weekends work, blood sweat and tears.
And considering we now have these available on a jig they are significantly cheaper, if you understood the first thing about economics and how the world works this may become a little clearer to yourself.
The original machine lead time, initial measurements and dummy fit required alot of time for a 'professional' who is paid a 'professional' wage to construct.
As a result of now creating a jig, these can be made up in much less time (and price), but obviously these mounts are not high in demand and as a result the supply is rather low, in fact made to order. As such people are either willing, or will be forced to pay a much higher price than say what you beleive them to be worth, im guessing not much more than a case of VB.
Perhaps you should look at norbies website at www.norbie.net, then ask norbie would it have been worth his while to buy these mounts outright.
You obviously have little idea of reality and how the world keeps on spinning.
Jaze does know his 1J shit and many other people here do, so if i was you, i would ask around before throwing around accusations.

cheers for the backup guys,
nate: i was happy to pay that much originally to have it done right, and exactly how i wanted them, and not have a backyard job that made my engine sit at an angle or mounts that break with any reasonable power,and as mentioned because i did now mounts are available to those who need them without the screwing around of making them. my best wishes to you with your conversion, i would genuinely be interested to see how your mate with a welder goes, if he does them good for under 250 bucks, best of luck to you.
and as for the conversion, it has been sold.

fistly. AE92poit FUCK YOU.
i'm merely giving my suggestion. i never said i was right. i never said he wouldn't get $7000 for it. i just said that he would sell it real quick at $5000. perhaps before you go and bad mouth other people and other company's you might count to 10 and think about what you are going to say.
i made an error when i said 1/2 cut for $1500. i mean to say engine package.
i picked up a ca18det engine package, cut loom, ecu, top mount cooler, turbo, engine. for $1650 + shipping through this other mob. the converstion in total will cost me about $7000 - $8000 only because i'm buying a few lil quality extras.
sorry guys, but people that think they are 100% right piss me off. i only ever gave my opinion.

SSS are great for parts, as long as you go there in person. not much time for people on the phone.

"sorry guys, but people that think they are 100% right piss me off. i only ever gave my opinion."
"You won't find a better car than mine."
you seem to think that you are 100% sure that no1 will find a better car than yours... it had better be good... if its lived a life that has meant its needed a new paint job and a new engine than i can say i have seen an ORIGINAL ma61 better than yours so your statement isnt 100% right.... but anyways that one that im talking about was a stunner... looked like it had been driven out of the showroom yesterday... and thats not because it had been cleaned up its because it is THAT clean...
anyways sorry to get so far off topic jaze
and good luck with ur sale supraboy

im sorry but as a car enthusist i would rather do the work myself then pay someone a huge amount for mounts.
apparently i have no grip on reality because i would NEVER spend $800 of two chunks of metal. The way you described to make them is overkill. I will be making up a set of mounts with the help of a couple of mates (one of them can weld of course) and they will be just as strong as your set. I understand the cost of production and how that shit works. I dont see how you can apply that to one set of mounts which are so simple to make yourself.
so if you dont mind i will spend a weekend with a couple of mates, have a good time working on my baby and have my wallet a fuck load fatter at the end of it.

The mounts are actually now $250 due to the jig and well worth it in my books, it takes the guy about 4hrs to make them up FROM AN EXISTING JIG and he has done this before.
They all line up nicely, they are completely simple, functional and engineered for high tolerances.
and they are PROVEN!
Do it your way if you want, thats fine by my but i will stick by what i said above.

you just had to go and be a f*ckwit eh? its people like you that ruin these forums,
read: I DO NOT GIVE A SCREW IF YOU DO NOT BUY THE ENGINE MOUNTS.
the company that makes them sells them for 250 bucks and is located in hustville and has no affiliation with me WHATSOEVER. if $250 bucks fattens your wallet considerably perhaps u should not be waisting your remaining pittance on attempting a 1J conversion.
i did at no point ask you to spend 800 dollars on mounts or for yourself. what i did was my decision and my choice as it was my money that i spent, and whether you thought it was a good move or not u have no right to get on these forums and give me shit for doing something how i wanted to do it.
if you have the time to spend sitting a 1J above a MA61 and taking measurements amnd welding, well best of luck to you i did not give you any shit for wanting to do it yourself.
as the following question from your pm indicates, your a very knowledgeable lad arent you,
:did you ever dyno it ? why did you put rb25 turbos on her ? do they produce more power then the stock 1j ones ?:
best of luck with your conversion mate, seeing you are such a smart bastard ill bet its the best one anyones seen yet.

i'll trade you my soul. sence of decency and maybe my conscience for the conversion package.
Seriously though
if i had $6000 i would most likely be driving my supra down to sydney, for a nice 1jz, as we speak...but i dont so i wont be driving down 
Good luck with the sale...and damn you for not waiting for 2 or 3 years...because thats how long it'll probably take me to save up $6000

From soneone in the middle of this exact conversion (though stock turbos & injectors and auto), I can attect that this is a Total F**king Bargain! Jaze's package cuts thousands off the cost of the conversion cost. Not only that, but it comes complete with upgraded turbos and the increadably rare W-58 JZ bellhousing.
That said, I'm really hoping that 82mkII does get it and join the Perth JZA61 club!
- Justin
PS: FWIW, I drove a JZX90 Chaser on Saturday (all stock except 3.5" exhaust). Man, did it fly. Boost comes on creamy smooth. Now, just imagine an extra 150hp out of the engine and hauling around 250kg less weight. Go 1J Supra!

marco,
The M3 is quick, but you've gotta realise that there are plenty of quicker cars. There aren't any automatic M3's either, they come in manual or SMG2 for the E46 range, and I don't think the driver is stupid enough to run full auto mode when running another car. Whats this crap about a "base in auto", umm, there isn't such thing as a base model M3... 
Also, the lighter M3 you speak of doesn't make 290kw+, it only makes 265kW. Geez, its a 3.2l six in a road car, not a race engine. If you're going to talk shit, at least make it seem believable

ah ha ha what a wanker that marc is. he makes a completely stupid statement then edits his post to remove it and then keeps acting like a toss.
why does he instantly dismiss a JZA61 as having no chance of beating a M3. - does he even like toyotas , whats he even doing on this board? get a clue dude its power-weight!!!
obviously hes been too busy reading wheels & modern motor and shit like that. - dreamer. ha
