Hey guys,

Just bought my new Soarer last week Friday. Its a 3.0 non turbo 2JZ. Not 100% sure whats going to happen with her so far, but I'm thinking a big fat turbo.

Sorry that the pics are off the carsales ad, but I havent had time to take any decent pics yet, As soon as I do, I shall post them :-)

It has:

Vertex body kit
Robocop rims (haha)(I'm changing these lol)
Hi-Flow cat
Dual canons

Sounds absolutely sick, and the interior is black and is immaculate.

Anyway that's my soarer

love the site, will no doubt be tonnes of help.

Looking forward to a Soarer cruise, will be sick.

Cheers

Hi Kristian,

Welcome to the club mate!

Not a bad looking 2JZ Soarer you have there, black looks great. Dont know about those tail lights though.

I probably wouldnt even think about getting a "big fat turbo" if i was you... its just not worth the time and money and effort mate. You are better off just buying a clean TT and going from there. However , if you do go ahead with your plan, check out www.otomoto.com.au as i think they were doing a turbo kit to suit the NA 2JZ.

Hehe, Thanks guys, Its not as fast as your V8's and your Twin turbos, but I will make sure that is attended too.

I really really want to go for a cruise with you other guys, The idea of lots of soarers on one road is just awesome.

I will be no doubt asking a ton of stupid questions, so heres a prior thanks for putting up with me hahaha.

Nice one brother!

Very nice, keep the boot spoiler, it has your brake light and it lowers the CDa of the soarer by 0.01.

I have heard Wilkinsons Suspension in Bayswater are very good.

I have never used them myself but have talked to them about replacing my bushes. They say they have worked ont he soarers and are familiar with the bushes on them. They did also say that the soarers front uppers are the most likely to go. Wilkinsons will replace your factory worn bushes with the cheaper Nolathene ones unless you supply your own like the ones from VFT


http://vftbushes.com/

I ended up not changing my bushes because I found out that that they were fine and it was my wheel bearing that was making all the noise plus seized suspension. Once those two things were fixed no noises and a smooth ride.

Good luck!

Anyone can do the Soarer brake pads, there is nothing special about them.
