Hi Folks, names Neil stay in fife up in Scotland

thought i would join up to learn a little more about the toyota engine. The 1jz is an engine im not too clued up on.

I have just bought something a little different a Skyline r33 with a 1jz conversion.

Having had skylines for the last few years and more recently sold my R32 GTR i wanted something a little different from the norm for drifting up here in Scotland at driftland.

So the r33 it is then......

Looking forward to reading up on the good technical areas in the forum and getting involved in my 1jz ownership

 

cheers

Plans

 

upgrade the Brakes i have a set of K sports sitting for the front and also going to upgrade the rears to likely gtr spec anyway.

 

Fix the power steering leak get new pipes made up there seems to be a progressive leak at the return line

 

Bodywork- Gtr bumper clean up some rust areas underneath and also above the rear screen and a good machine polish.

Oh and a new set of wheels the ones that are on it look a little lost even with the spacers. Gutted it would need alot of work to get my Volks GT-C's on so might look for a set will weaker offset.

 

A few pics from the previous owner and will get a few once its back home in my garage next week
