- Sorry for the poor audio quality, we didn't expect to feature any cars while we were at Formula Drift Seattle, but Jeff's car was too good to pass up! So we scrounged up what audio gear we had. Enjoy!

Thank you guys for watching. If you guys want a signed print for your wall I print all of them myself from my large format Canon printer larrychenprints.com/
Please don’t ever change your theme music intro/outro I absolutely love it and it sound great coming out of my surround sound when I’m watching your content !!! 🤙
This should be driven next to the B58 GR86 Swap. Would be nice to see a video with both together and compare, engine, sound, maybe a little race 🏁
Okay, so does it seriously still have the temp tag in the rear window?? Damn, son. Ain't waisting any time are we? Awesome build! Must've been a pure thrill to ride.
Might wanna check your video at 35 seconds 😂
😂😂😂 you bought a defective motor 😂
the sheer joy in the laughs after that pull was hilarious.

haha for real

I honestly felt that the GR86 was closer to the ethos of what the Supra was, than the new Supra. This car with the 2JZ really seals that for me.
Wasnt the Supra a GT car? The GR actually follows the sports car "ethos". =)
@@roryvitaga6001 You make an excellent point, Rory. .. and in some ways, it’s also more like an AE86 than a Supra.. but one thing is for sure, it isn’t anything like a roadster (what the new Supra is based on)!
@@ScottOmatic I think Toyota got lazy with the new Supra. Maybe because BMW is the only one producing a potent inline 6 and wanted to pay hommage to the 2jz..But if Toyota really wanted to, they could've made something 100% Toyota and rock the socks out of that Z4
@@roryvitaga6001 Yup. The new Supra is a halo car.. I understand the economics of why they partnered with BMW... But at the end of the day, Toyota did this project to convince people they were still cool. Instead, all they showed us is that they are still a corporation with a bottom line. If they were passionate about what they were building, they could have afforded to build it themselves.
@@zackw4941 There is always some idiot in a Toyota on the road. Usually a Camry. Nearly got run off the road by one because instead of flooring it to get in front he just goes a bit faster and it's not fast enough to get a head of my Lancer. I'm not the honking sort, I'm the get out of the car sort. Toyota drivers need to learn.
2JZ gets a brand new GR86 body to be twice as legendary.
It's more Supra than the Supra.
His story about “Stealerships” ripping people off is spot on. I recently had the same issue where the salesperson called and said they’re going to “have to alter the sale price” or return my deposit. They’re all frigin crooks!
Yup, and it’s not going to change unless people stop fighting for new vehicles. I guarantee the stealerships will go below MSRP if vehicles sat on the lot without buyers for months unless they sold for MSRP or below, but it ain’t gonna happen because people are willing to pay 10k over. Think about it, their goal is just to make money, not to make people happy. They could care less if you are happy and will return there. Stealerships that actually care about their customers are in the minority, maybe 1 in 100. Every stealerships I’ve been to, has always been about trying to scam me for a penny more if they can. I was so surprised at the length they went to try and scam me to buy an extra $200 clear bra by telling me it’s already on there and I just have to pay for it, when clearly it’s not on there and when confronted about it, the useless human being selling me the truck, said I pay now and bring it back for them to apply it later, like wtf?!?.
Sucks but Business is Business
Would be nice if we can buy direct like with Tesla
Yes, but only because not so smart buyers, enable this. Sales chase market.
Lmao that laugh at the beginning says it all!
Dude sounded like a turkey 🦃
Sounds like a few cheering birds, or monkeys 😂
Like a couple lil girls..🤦♂️
@@karipaturketo5438 thought the same! Takes a 2jz to make dudes giggle like girls!😂😂😂😂
33:41 had me dying with the turkeys 🤣🤣
This video just made me smile throughout. The passion for the build, the attention to detail, the strive to retain lots of factory function and showing that the GR86 chassis can truly handle the legendary 2JZ engine. This is pure class.
Fantastic execution creating this unique performance sportscar! Being well over 70 years old would have a hard time getting in and out of the car. I can still appreciate the enthusiasm that Jeff put into creating this car.
Lol!! I'm 40, and from age 20, all my chosen vehicle choices have been hard to get out off...🤷♂️
Really cool to see all my local roads around my house in this video! Always a pleasure seeing Jeff rolling on this thing around the hood
Is this in Everett?
Correct
Does Jeff have a shop in the area?
In the same business park that Philly ya belly is in.
Wow what a beautiful build! I love the new styling, Toyota killed it! Haha the hyena laughter got me 😂😂 I pray that the car market levels out 🙏
It seems like it was built to impress people at cars and coffee, which I'm sure it will.
Love the NSX rear end
This is one of the most beautiful builds I've seen, work of art right there. Super clean Jeff.
Taco go to car meetings around California and you will see cars way better than that Toyota.
@@faustinopinella8126 its a really nice build, it all comes down to taste and i personally agree with his statement
oooo ''way better''@@faustinopinella8126 don't care, this toyota looks Fn amazing.
That’s a cool build. Makes me want one. Honestly it looks like what I’d expect the Supra to look like.
Just started following, the content is greatly detailed to show appreciation of the build. Its nice that you allow them to explain why they chose their specific parts. 👍👍👍

Where can I follow Jeff’s build?? No mention of his ig or anything
This is a very nice build. Does he have a CZcams channel?
@@seanasilo85 i second this someone tag me for updates please HAHA
@@elvispretzel2023 Me too please if you get a response lol
Everything about this build is rad and executed flawlessly. Smiles per gallon. 😍
Jeff has and will always kill it because he does exactly what he wants with no compromise. The talent and passion is real! 🔥🔥🔥
the synchronized giggle in the van was epic
I saw a gr86 for the first time maybe a week ago and had to google what it was. And I'm usually pretty on top of new cars and stuff. And these guys already shoved a jz in it. Good job fellas
A 2JZ GR86 if more Supra than the new Supra
Couldn't stop smiling throughout the rest of the video once you guys took the car out. Man, what a machine. Beautiful build.
That pull/hyena laugh needs to be in every intro, ya'll had me geekin lol 😂
This build and combination is so fire bro. Glad I got to see something like this be pulled off. Making me wanna get a gr 86
Def best gr86 build so far out there that I’ve seen. I love to see the full potential of this car in the hands of enthusiasts.
I can't wait for the GR86 to come to the UK, this is just art.
Hoping to do a turbo beams on my MR2 next year
@@ASLackey22 3S-GTE?
Everything about this car is gorgeous , body kit and all
That sounds absolutely amazing. I have it running through my truck speakers and I feel like I'm in the car with you guys
The 86 should have been released with the modern equivalent of the 3S-GTE Turbo engine from the later MR2 Turbo.
They have always been very underpowered and that stopped a lot of enthusiasts getting into them even though the chassis and steering were sweet.
Nice build dude. Rock on!
That would make the 2.0 Supra unsellable
The platform is great for tuners because it can handle a crazy amount beyond what its sold with.
The gr86 is so good aesthetically wish it had the driveline the gr corolla is coming with
Could be coming soon... Probably rwd though if it happens
@@toby.2a rws 3cyl turbo gr86 would be insane i hope they do it cause id buy one lol
@@toby.2a from my understanding, if that happens, it will be hydrogen powered.

@@sigmamale4147have you seen the gr Corolla engine? It can handle 500whp in a 3 cylinder turbo it’s crazy
Love what you’re doing featuring these builds Larry. 🔥🔥🔥
Holly this man really saw the vision! I want this exact setup on my 86, watch in like 5-10 years this will be a classic
This is EXTREMELY clean. Really nice build.
This car is levels!!! The quality of the build is next level. Banging video & content as always.. Peace and Respect frm the UK 👍👊✌
Jeff!!! Wow what a car! Awesome build. This is Max, you bought my pink S13 from many years ago. So happy to see such a great build. Quality, fit and finish looks very nice. Hope life is going well!
@Let’s talk OfficialKitboga ah dam lucky bro I wish I could’ve been selected 😢
Hell yeah that's one clean looking gr86 can't wait to see more process to the build
I love the perfection he puts on his build, what a great car
That’s one way to fix the RTV problem!!!
The best way 😆
I just saw this at Driftcon last weekend, absolutely amazing job!
Can never get bored of that sound.
Dude is a genius, awesome build, not a fan of wide bodies but get that he needs the extra tire and that its a shop car to showcase the shops skills, etc.
That's a fantastic looking body kit.
Obviously the 2JZ is great but I always fancied a Beams 3SGE-T as the perfect swap.
Beams is superior indeed, especially on a small car
The GE is a better fit for this build due to the different routing of the water necks, really keeps the bay clean and the plumbing hidden lower instead of the top water neck running across the front of the engine. Real clean work man. Thank you for putting out a machine like this 👌
I got mine for msrp, waited 5 months for it.
Hopefully I'll have a supercharger setup in a yr or two on it.
Love the car so far, even stock.
I went to Fat Five Racing back in March and saw the cars JZ Jeff mentioned. Also went to a private test and tune/drift practice with Minowa Shinji san and his son Hiroya san. Saw the RB aero'd and 2J'd GR86 in person and it looks the business. Love Japan
LOVE THIS BUILD!!! The quality and meticulous details to it, keeping that oem++ style to it are top notch!!!!
Larry Chen signed print of this car in the future possibly?????😁🙏🏻💯
Seeing this car in person is always so amazing. I've seen it many times but I still stop and look at all the details that went into building the car. This 86 is absolutely perfect.
As an old guy watching this, I can say that I'm really impressed. I'm an old SC300 fanatic. This build knocks it out of the park. My compliments Son...
Saw this build at Wekfest Seattle and it’s so insanely awesome.
It's a great feeling knowing the area they are driving in. Hopefully I'll get to see this beast on the road one day!
Where? I couldn’t tell but I guessed maybe WA.
Everett WA
Grinned ear to ear the whole time I watched this. So cool. Must be so fun
That's one sick looking ride, just WOW!
That thing is a piece of art. So amazing.
I wasn’t really a fan of the more squared off fenders on the wide body at first, but the more I look at it the more I like it.
Took first place trophy’s… my guy you built a stunner you’ll be slaying shows for years to come
This is an amazing build. I am eagerly awaiting future aftermarket availability with this chassis. It would be really cool to see someone put a Porsche flat 6 into the BRZ/GR86.
I agree and I actually looked into this. A ~300 horsepower Boxster or Cayman engine is around $20,000 used. A 911 engine even more. That is why you don't see people swapping Porsche engines in Subarus.
@@ProjectM97 That makes sense. While I'm sure it would be cheaper to put a wrx engine in a GR86, a Porsche flat 6 would be way cooler. I would also like to see a 13b rotary or another lightweight JDM legend like an SR20DET those costs are quickly becoming too expensive. Hopefully Toyota makes good on their possibility to put the 3 cylinder turbo from the GR Corolla.
@@DevoT Toyota may release a 3cy turbo 86
@@JB-sv5pr That would be awesome, I just hope it doesn't cost 45 grand.
@@JB-sv5pr they sell the 3cyl as a crate over in japan but also maybe the motor from the tribeca could fit in here
Such a clean build.
this is probably the most beaitful GR86 build I've seen
It’s wild that Toyota still does that oe color, my 1991 Supra came in the same sapphire metallic black from factory; granted the first owner had it specked out by looking at the sticker tag but still 20 years later still a gorgeous color.
The 2J will always be legendary. Great choice.
boring like corvettes
I want that swirl pot for my GE 🤣 looks great! Amazing build
Man, that's a sick build and the fact it was ripped apart right after purchase. 👏👏
Just a thought -- you could always use your phone as a mic and sync audio later for these impromptu vids when you're out without gear.
Keep doing you, Larry!
This is a sweet GR86 for sure. I had the chance to shoot video of it at Wekfest Seattle, I have not had the chance to edit you. Great video, keep up the good work!
I can’t even imagine how this feels to drive. A powerful 86 is a proper 86
Yeah that's a dope kit and swap.. Definitely wish that car came with more..I might would've thought about buying one.. Great Build tho..👍🏽🏁
Seen this car in person!! She is an amazing build for sure!
Damnnn probably the cleanest build i've ever seen
I thought this was clickbait, i clicked the video because the thumbnail made it look serious and then I’m 10 minutes into the video and this guy is talking about putting in custom transmission welded mounts and his knowledge and I’m shook. I’m subscribed now and will be following lol
So super cool I dont even know where to start..... the turbo/exhaust sounds.. subtle yet aggresive.. and SoOo much more... Cool video overall.. thanks.. def sub'd...
I HATED this kit when I first saw it on every GR86 at Tokyo Auto Salon but on this car, all Blacked out, it looks AMAZING.
Killer build man
Awesome build....I love it ..Hoping to build the same beast soon...
I’m curious how long it’ll be before somebody swaps the motor and 6 speed tans from an mkV Supra in one of these. I absolutely love the 2J, but the B58 would be a pretty dope swap to be being newer tech. Now that it’s been researched and tested extensively, pulling a good 800hp out of it for a street car this size would make for such a fun daily. I know the B58 swap has been done before, but not with its own factory trans. But this build is stupid clean. Nothing was missed and it was all done with massive attention to detail.
I don't see the point of swapping in a B58. The only reason to go that route is to be "different". 2J swap is much more simple and already a proven platform. I think he made a great decision going with the 2j imho.
Nobody would daily an 800hp 86 lol that's a borderline death trap
@@madkas14 There's nothing "different" about 2j swapping nowadays, and a B58 has the same performance.. yet weighs a LOT less. I'd say 2j was the right choice, but to talk down about the B58 bEcAuSe was silly.
@@rocketots if it's the same performance as a 2j, then why aren't people doing B58 swaps? Why are people still using a 30yr old engine instead of a fancy high tech engine that's supposedly superior?
@@madkas14 because people prefer a 450 lb engine that everyone likes over a 300 lb engine made by a different mfg that holds the same amount of power. yeah, turbo/fuel only 800whp can be done with a b58 as well. and it's happening..alot. dudes are just fanboys of the 2j and it's hilarious. do you have one?
Kinda look like a 370z a little but nice build love it 😍
I love Toyota midnight metallic black, it looks crazy in the sun.
that kit is literally perfect
0:10 who brought the turkeys
Is it just me??? Does the front end look like an s2000
@@ianvisser7899 not trying to hurt anyone’s feeling. Just saying it looks like an s2000. A lot of people say the back taillight’s look like a civic. I’m just starting to see what people are talking about. It still looks cool.
My brz just passed the driveway test today. Love this build btw
I actually love how this car looks with the body kit
It's not a ricer-ish body kit. Looks more menacing, like an RWB car.
@@cyberspectre8675 facts also looks like my RSX with that front bumper
What do you think the new weight ratio would be after a swap like this?
You'd be surprised how little it would affect it if the coilovers are set up properly. You probably couldn't notice it much at all on the street, maybe with some hard roadcourse driving you might notice the heavier front end. A lot of aftermarket parts lower weight and you don't even realize it; exhaust, wheels, coilovers, calipers/rotors, seats, battery. My turbo'd FR-S weighed 2650lbs with half tank of fuel which was lighter than it came from the factory and very much improved in every aspect.
much more front heavy than it would be if it had an LS in it
Most badasss build of the fucking year. Big props Jeff!!! would love to do my own!
Dam thats clean ! Congrats hard work pays off . thanks for the video
The only GR86 that’s worth owning 🤷♂️
Why the 0:12 Laughs sound like a Turkey?
Great video Larry, Jeff's car is awesome and he's also an awesome mechanic!
I KNEW I saw this car before! I was at Wekfest! It was my first meet I went to after moving to the PNW from Arizona, wicked stuff man! I had no idea the story behind the swap was so cool!
It sucks the work you have to do to get the GR86, or even the Supra, cause people put deposits down on them. I already put a deposit down on a new manual Supra back in May, I'm at the top of the list at my dealership, and I still haven't heard anything on timeframe. But the luck for this guy to get this and make it as awesome as it is, it's awesome. I love seeing 2J swaps in JDM cars, especially as in depth as this is!
How much was the deposit? Also did you get approved for fiance after the deposit or do you have to wait until the car comes in.
@@JcLazy1 500 deposit, and they want to see what your credit score is same day, but they won't start the financing until the car comes in cause your trade-in or amount you put down could go up or down by the time the car gets there. BUT if you plan to pay it all off at once, they don't have to check what your credit score is when you put down the deposit. Only reason I know that is cause that's what I did
@@ezioahmet4192 gotcha. I notice people who pre order cars tend to do that.
From what I’ve heard, the special edition manuals and auto Supras will be delivered this year for a lot of people. The regular, non-a91 edition manuals won’t start delivery until next year.
@@Barbwire710 well, that's heartbreaking. I've seen the A91 is showing up to dealerships, then all other stuff are autos, so I was already fearing that was going to be the case. Like the GR Corolla showing up in '23, not for MY '23
this thing fucks
The car is beautiful - it’s probably the best combo ever
Brings a lot of memories back... I was the first "privateer" in the U.S. to complete a 2j swap into the original 86 (frs)
Sick car. I’m gonna get this same car. Props to you for your brilliance in building it man. 🔥🔥🔥
Haha, you're in Everett WA, that intro pull merging onto I5 is the most epic on ramp, very twisty, and then flat out at the end. Very nice!
Larry, hope next time you're in Seattle you'll have time to see my manual swapped C55 AMG and rest of the Mercedes fleet finally ;)
Epic build, knew right away you were in the pacific northwest from the opening shots. This style build is not always my cup of tea truthfully but this car works really well with the kit, the color, the swap etc. Awesome job Jeff, way to represent for the for your shop and the PNW!
So nobody gonna mention anything about the air freshener? Love the build, looks absolutely stunning and the air freshener is just the cherry on top
absolutely gorgeous, the 2jzgte is no.1 straight 6
Saw you last weekend driving past Bellevue of Toyota on I-90! Just got done placing my order for a Neptune Blue 86. Couldn’t believe you had a wide body kit already on with temp tags lol. Sick car man
Is is bad that I started to laugh the same way as the guys in the van at the same time? Truly sick GR86, beautiful sound, looks amazing.
So much knowledge with Jeff
A GR86 with an old 2JZ is now my dream car
Excellent from start to finish.
