  • Welcome back guys, have I got a treat for you!
    Ive got myself a new JDM project car and a crazy deadline to hit.
    Ive given myself just over 3 week to take this Toyota Soarer that's been off the road for over a decade from non running to road worthy.
    The end goal is to drive the car to the Toyota National day but there's lots to do so lets get to it!

    The Soarer badge represents a Griffin. I owned a few years back the 2.5 litre JZ30 straight six twin turbo great car. The 3 litre GT you own can get genuine JDM performance upgrades with loads more power as its the same engine you find in a Supra.

      Sweet thanks.
      I didn’t think that there would be much more to be made power wise from an N/A engine. What can be done?

    nice vid, same for me, picked up a soarer that has been sitting for 7 years, only 88k on the clock, started on starter fluid
    same issue as you when we first tried, fuel pump. The whole fuel tank was rusty alongside the fuel pump. Still waiting for some parts to arrive before getting her on the road
    cant wait for more vid ahahah

      Nice to know I’m not alone.
      The tank on this one isn’t too bad so it will go again and the new pump arrives very soon.
      More content on its way soon, 22 days and counting until deadline…

    The creature on the badge just has to be a "Soarer".
