Recomendations on Toyota Ute for a 1J Wed, 19 May 2004 12:03 Go to next message
Anyone got any good recommendations on what toyota utes would best suit a 1j ,......reg will be in Vic so shouldn't be to hard to obtain if the conversion is kept simple and neat

I don't want to get stuck into cutting fire walls or altering steering etc etc basically looking at just being able to alter the basics,eg engine mounts ,.gearbox cross, radiators, ...exhaust ,... wiring loom etc

My knowledge of toyota ute's sucks but i am open to year models age etc
Dual cabs 4x4 or 2 wheel drives ,.....i'm leaning on the 2wheel drive models though

Any suggestions or Pro's Con's would be great,.....also pics of particular utes

ohh also particular 1j models ,...KW outputs ,..$ figures etc
I presume there is prob several different models

thanks

it probably dont fit your requirements of not having to cut/mod stuff but a stout with a 1j would be nice!!

have a search - there is a guy around with a 1jz hilux. 1jzs are all fairly similar (except the vvti single turbo) and fuck I dont care anymore
go do a search for 1jz types, it's all explained.

Thanks for the stout idea guys but i have had a look at a stout and it definatley does not meet the criteria of fitting relativley easy

Draven I have done a search and spent a good 2-3hrs reading any post with the hilux posted little alone 1J all before i posted
I noted that there is plenty of post for a hilux and a 1u but i already have a 1u and would like to play with something different

I was looking for constructive information from someone who may have actaully done a conversion seen a conversion or know the process for a 1j in any toyota ute conversion
eg if you use a single turbo model 1J in a 85model hilux the exhaust will clear the steering box with ease where as a twin turbo model won't fit at all without modification the to the steering

anyway no offence intended to anyone just trying to do the homework before rushing out an buying a ute and a 1J for some fun

Keep anyideas comming as i am keen for this conversion to happen

Need a Ute basically

1J would be the go in a 2wd ute ..

I think it would be a very very sweet converion outside of making it a strip woarrior with the motor from your ta22 ..

Auto would be easierr to as most motors seem to be sourced with an auto ..

I cant see it being impossible seeing theres a heap of space under there ..

Go for it jamie ! 2WD 2jz/1jz auto hilux towmobile! !!

slylux has a 1JZ in a third generation type hilux i.e. after 1989 i think. Im pretty sure he had to convert it to single turbo because of clearance issues.

Other than a hliux what about those early Crown utes, they are cool.

stilux, that's him.

sorry bout my crassness last night man - not your fault, I was just in a really shitty mood.

there are 3 sump types for the 1jz, and you'll have to find out which one will suit a hilux best (almost certainly a front-sump type... the rarest Smile)

Hmmm Crown Ute i didn't even think of this ,.....maybe i look into this some more ,..mind you they are prob getting hard to locate

Draven no prob mate, I didn't think your comment was that bad just a tad negative and everybody gets the shits once in a while

ok so Stylux or is it Stilux he should be able to help me with some advice ,....i will do a search for his posts

DOHC,.. that would be great if you are speaking to your mate to ask him if it is a realtivley easy fit,...anychance of grabing a picy or 2 for us

thanks

I have a 1993 (3rd gen.) Hilux 2x4 with a 1JZ Manual. It is out of a JZA70 Supra. If you have any question I'll do my best to help. It is a great conversion.

If you guys think that my Crown Wagon is rare try and fing a ute. If you do find one jamie that you don't want I'll take it.

If you do go with a crown you'll need to get the single turbo 1J or do a single turbo conversion as there are clearance issue's with the steering box.


If you got a Stout the 1G fits in Rod measured it. That would make one tuff truck.
