Guest cptsideways Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Hi Guys Not been on this forum for a long while, but having just picked up a GZ20 with the 2.0L Twin turbo & manual too!! I'm looking for some advice & general direction pointing. I'll be building the car for the D1 GB rounds, so its a full strip down and build up. Anybody on here with some tips on the tuning side? From what I gather the main running gear is all Supra based, so I'm after any goodies you lot might have lying around.... Coilovers (it has the Toyota adjustables at present) Paddle clutch Some tasty wheels split rims if poss Engine tuning goodies A decent aggressive diff Anything else that might come in handy Might be keen on a 2.5 Twin Turbo if theres one about. Here she is all shiny & original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethr Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Anybody on here with some tips on the tuning side? From what I gather the main running gear is all Supra based. Not many 20 Series Soarers in the UK. Try the toymods forum in Oz for info on the 1G-GTE. It's Mk3 Supra rather than Mk4, and the GA70 also used the 1G-GTE. P.S. Where in the South West are you? TIF have a meet near Newbury at the beginning of March. Lots of 30 Series Soarers, but we've never seen a GZ20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrdsukautos Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I'd check out the aussie forum as they know lots about the older soarers http://soarercentral.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cptsideways Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Cheers guys for the tips Its looking straightforward from a driveline onwards point of view, nice and simple swapsies. Anyone know of any MA70 owners who've done a 1JZ-GTE swap?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 try http://www.mkiiisupra.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Anyone know of any MA70 owners who've done a 1JZ-GTE swap?? Haven't heard of anyone swapping a 1JZ into a Mk 3 in the UK. I think Arnout has done some http://www.supras.nl. I believe there was a GZ20 with a 1JZ-GTE on Soarer Central in OZ. The Aussies reckon that the W58 is a bit marginal for the 1JZ and tend to use the R154 for auto to manual changes on Soarers. Your best bet is Toymods, lots of old school Soarers in Australia, and they love all sorts of engine swaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
