Because it's so played out. The JZ engines are legendary... but it's so lame to take this car and put on in it.

Want to do something cool? Find a way to put a fully built 4AGE in it. Something paying tribute to it's heritage.

The 1JZ/2JZ route..... it's just stupid. The only reason to do it is to be the first retard on the block to do it.

Id do a 20B 3-rotor swap before i take on a 2jz swap...so i can retain high output, high reving, and low center of gravity.

anyway...my first mods will probably be in order;

Headers,Intake,exhaust,coilovers,wheels,(Aero).

Right.... So your saying be the first retard to put a Less capable engine in a car so that I can be original. Sounds like you are a genius, and I don't give 2 shits if the 2jz/1jz are played out, I know the engines and what they are capable of, not to mention the aftermarket for both are enormous, instead of bashing my idea, why don't you say hey that will be pretty quick, or I'd like to see that, instead of oh look he's got an idea that I don't like, he must be dumb. You know what's even funnier is that you think your on to something....:slap:

I won't lie... I'd like to see it. I'd never do it myself, but wouldn't knock you for pulling it off. I take it you are making it a drag car though?

Might as well since the balance that Toyota were striving for will be completely lost. I mean, this kind of reminds me of the RX7 2JZ swap, that thing made 1500hp+ on nitrous, but lost all handling and became a drag car. The 3 rotor idea is cool tho, but to expensive for anyone with a budget at all.

BoostJunkie 06-22-2011 02:18 PM
A streetable drag car, but depending how it does we may go extreme(bigger turbo)

Sea1monkey2 06-22-2011 02:45 PM
I am going to hack the computer in the car to play a speed matching version of THIS at ALL TIMES.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=QH2-TGUlwu4

When the car is stopped, it will be off. Then, as soon as i start moving, it will picked up in speed from stopped to full speed at around 40mph. All of this will be played from a megaphone between the exhaust tips. THIS IS GOLD!

Even though an LSX swapped FD RX7 loss some balance it still handles great and would put a stomping on stock FD3S, stock for stock swap in a drag, autocross and road course.

..really? i would have picked Mario's Star Theme, and have a rainbow colored underglow strob faster as the car picked up speed.

Yep, handling didn't change too much with swapped LSx FDs iv driven a few and didn't see much of a difference... buts rotation changed dramatically in certain driving situations. A buddy of mine in guam did the LS7 swap in his FD, but because of the changed characteristics of the output of the engine and where inertial weight was being transferred, the car couldn't plow into corners like it did with the rotary.

I for one would love a LS FD...its the right kind of sports car for me. And the power output of a light/compact V8 ..cant get any better..But if my backyard was a long sloping downhill, with connecting curves..or if i lived in the boonies with a series mid-speed s curves....an LSx FD would probably not be the best performing car on the block.

Everyone knows what the engines are capable of.... :bellyroll:

But so what? There's an enormous aftermarket for Chevy Big Blocks too. Does that mean you should throw one of those in? At least that would be so outrageous it would be awesome.

It might be quick if you can keep the rear tires down. The weight of that engine is the front is going to lift the back end right up... /sarcasm.

I'm saying the idea is dumb because every single Toyota car that as ever come out, someone has had to stick a 2JZ in it. Every one. After a while it becomes pointless. You're not breaking new ground, people will coo for about 5 seconds because of the 2JZ and then you'll be forgotten.

If you can even make it work properly. Sticking a Cast Iron straight 6 where a flat 4 resides is not going to be an easy task. Even more so if you want it to be "Streetable".

Personally I think you're biting off you than you can chew. Even if you do shoehorn it in there. I don't think you'll get the reception you want.

NemesisPrime909 06-22-2011 07:57 PM
well I can say really, as much as I want to go on about modding my FT-86/FR-S/216A I keep going back to one conclusion, I haven't driven the car so I can't say for sure what I would modify first but I think I would go about doing some weight shedding (loosing the spare and unnecessary interior pieces) that's all I can say for now

WTF??? X2

First, it's a Pop Tart cat?

Second the Google ad that popped up was for a Scion flash mob something or other. I didn't click to look, but my attempts to suppress my HATRED of Scion marketing/BS since the FR-S in NY is being severely tested right now...

Sleepy-kun 07-02-2011 07:44 PM
TTTTAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOO!!!!!1

No, seriously, I want a turbo, a body kit, and a giant ass wing on teh back so I can be a stereotypical asian ricer.

In reality, I want a turbo, coilovers, catback, lowering springs, and a sound system.

chulooz 07-02-2011 09:16 PM
coilovers and lowering springs, huh? haha

I might just do some struts and springs, we'll see what the stock suspension can handle.

rL-gT 07-04-2011 05:38 PM
Black / Red / White FR-S

TRD Red BBK all around
Coil overs
Volk CE28 Time Attacks
-18x8.5+40 w 245 Tire up front
-18x9.5 +34 w 265 Tire in the rear
Volk Formula Red Lug nuts
Full LED Upgrade

Gonna get that all done with in the first week (Minus coils)

Cant wait.

CyberFormula 07-04-2011 06:20 PM
1. 2 FIA approved buckets (still deciding between Bride or Sparco)

2. Coilovers (Tein? perhaps) and then I want to corner balance the car with me in the driver seat.

3. Light weight Rims that are as small as possible


4. If the power is 200hp..i'll bump it to 230hp. I'll be pretty content at 215-225hp stock.

5. If the steering wheel is ugly, i'm getting a momo 3 spoke steering wheel

6. Yellow fog lights :iono: (its either white or yellow...as far as i know the law goes)

DougieFresh 07-06-2011 09:16 PM
Coil overs, then staggered wheels with a tad of camber :thumbup:

fatoni 07-06-2011 09:22 PM
if the car doesnt come with staggered wheels thats a bad idea

Anyone who's ever entered a corner just a bit too fast only to go off into the gravel :burnrubber:

bigbcraig 07-07-2011 10:36 AM
Sarcasm? No?


Fine.

In a WRX, just abruptly lift off the gas and you'll snap from understeer to oversteer so your ass end hits a tree first ^^
Yes, it's happened to me, just not the tree part.

WhiteKnight 07-07-2011 11:01 AM
Turbo for sure... hopefully Ptuning will become a sponsor so they can produce a kit for the FR-S

buckets 11-17-2011 05:39 PM
Throw my old rozest ss-01 competition wheels on there. 17x8 and 17x8.5, 13.5/14lbs non stagger tires too. Might get em repainted

There have been 7 or 8 redundant/repost threads in the last couple of days, started by complete noobs who couldn't be bothered to search. So I figured that if I was going to respond negatively to badly behaving noobs, I should do something nice for noobs that do things right (ie. not starting a whole new thread about it). :)
