My S12

[Steelballz]

well lads and ladies, how are ye?I jus bought a quite neglecteed S12 this evening(ie bit of a rust-bucket lol)....
its a 1984 ireland-car, and I want to make it into a budget drifter...so:


any help on suspension/S13/14/15 parts that are direct fit are well appreciated.
also, has anyone ever shoe-horned in a 2JZ-GE non-turbo supra engine..?I've been thinking, and this is the best between sound, cost and performance for money here.also will be fabricating induction trumpets for the engine, if anyone has any help on how to set them up properly when made, any help appreciated.



p.s. will post up pics soon, as I'm very busy with my other cars at the minute.....

p.s. if anyone cann tell me exactly what engine it is, it says 2 litre dohc on the back and "fx" on the side of the rear bumper....hardly jap-spec is she..?!?!

that IS a Jap spec car. DOHC 2.0L is the FJ20E engine, im assuming its non-turbo.

The US Spec cars got a SOHC 2.0L named CA20E  Your 2.0 is making decent power stock, and its hard to find em in Jap spec nowdays.  however, I like your idea better, put a BEAST engine in it.

where are you located? assuming europe, since the car is from ireland.

was thinking jap spec too while browsing the site...
haha, my s12 isn't making power, as one of the last owners decided to take off rocker cover, and leave it...I'll get pics of the rusted cams soon LOL

and not beast engine, but I want a straight six sound to accompany the squealing of tyres....mmhmm
yes, europe, and indeed ireland is where I am.very far off most of the members..!!!

Welcome dude, looking forward to seeing pics of this thing.  The FJ20E isn't a bad motor and can make some decent power if built.  If you are looking for sixes, that will be work, but its definitely possible.
