At what end of the state will this soarer be located? You are correct when you say there are several TT 1jz soarers getting around. The soarer is an excellant car if correctly maintained. Look foward to seeing some pictures of it. gl with it.

Oh yeah its all done right,many times by the guy im gettin it from,he knows his stuff. Im plannin to be back before christmas eve. It will be in south of state through hobart on good nights. Ill be lookin to get out an meet some cool cruisers to cruise with...
Seth Cooper
Nov 17 2008, 09:04 PM
What is that name of the chap you are purchasing it from? If it is the one I am thinking of he is very reputable in various soarer orientated clubs. The soarer is definately a fine cruising machine. Has yours retained the automatic transmission or has it been converted to a manual?
Mayhem78
Nov 17 2008, 09:08 PM
The guy is in Bundy,Rob. Yeah its still got the auto thank god...Im sick of clutches... head to classifieds and search ghetto soarer...Have a preview, go on...
Seth Cooper
Nov 17 2008, 09:15 PM
I just had a read about it, a great sounding ride you have secured the purchase of there. Unfortunately I was unable to view any pictures, however I would be glad to do so at a later time. It seems to be a different person selling this vehicle to the one I suspected it could have been. I have recently myself also opted for an automatic transmission in my current ride for similar reasons to yourself.

Theres a guy on the mainland about to start selling twin turbo kits for the 1uz, I'm going that route for the celsior. Twin T28's, piggy back ecu, cooler, fuel pump and injectors on 14psi they make 300rwkw on a stock bottom end. They are crazy tough for a stocker and have made 2700hp on 50psi (obviously insane internals)
Webbey64
Nov 17 2008, 09:25 PM
haha Twin turbo FTW and mayhem thats a very nice soarer mate and cheap to!!! Wish my mate would have lisened to me when i said buy one over a BMW but nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Oh yeah i forgot mention the stock bottom end can handle around 800hp,and a stock top will handle upto 500hp...But obviously wouldnt really wanna risk it.... Ill get the 9psi on with a few other mods and should get 260rwkw. Then its onwards and upwards from there....

Lets just call excels BREAKFAST shall we(not all i must admit)!! The guy sellin cant till dec,because of family stuff. That suits me though it gives me time to sort final coin and a garage spot,insurance etc. Although the sooner the better i say!
