    Toyota 2JZ-GTE Engine on 8G Galant

    After I've finished assembling Super VR-4 Galant successfully. I thought of doing something special. Something no one has done it b4.

    Here is my new project.
    RWD 98' Galant with Toyota Supra 2JZ-GTE Engine.
    Estimated Time: 60 Days ( Hope everything goes well )

    So far I've fitted complete Supra's Front Setup
    ( Engine mounts, Steering, Rotors, Coilovers, ... )

    And Super VR-4 Rear Setup
    ( Fuel Tank, Rotors, Differentail, Coilovers, ... )
    also I made custom housing for the rear drive gearbox ( 1JZ 5 speed Manual )

    Here is my new ride



    Engine Bay







    Gearbox housing from inside





    Super VR-4 Recaro Seats



    Evo X Enkei Wheels with Toyo T1R Tires 245/40R18
    ( Supra Brake Calipers - Notice that Galant calipers are mounted in the front )








    To be continued ...

    I seen the motor sitting in the bay and all I could say was "holy shit" I've been wanting to see this done since at least '04.....half tempted to post this up on another site to show some dumbfuck who said it couldnt be done, that it is being done.

    ^Don't do it until its done...Builds of this magnitude can meet unexpected difficulties and end.

    yeah thats the half tempted part, better idea to wait till it runs. and its a site I havent been on in like 5 years so who knows if hes even on it anymore. Might stick it up on a local car forum instead just to show the Honda guys.
