very very nice car and build dude! good thing you live far far away in joondalup. wouldnt wanna line up at the lights and get smoked heh

like the brakes dude. how much and where abouts did you source those supra calipers from? and do they fit onto a jzx90 rotor?
the only options ive seen have been jap ones like grex's for 3.5k which come caliper and rotors. ive already got rda slotted rotors so..

I sourced the brake kit off these forums from jayzed (in Perth) after he sold his car. They are basically brand new as he put less than 5000k's on them. From my understanding the pads and the calipers were sourced by him from NZ toyota (contact is rory) the adaptor kit I can't remember where he said that was from and the braided lines are from maltech. DBA slotted rotors can be sourced in perth quite easily and at a decent price.

As discussed in other topics on this forum, you need the adaptor kit to mount these brakes which are just some replacement lug nuts to go onto the calipers, and I don't think the standard rotor would be able to be used and if you were planning on doing this you should really upgrade to the rotors too since your going from a 297mm rotor to a 324mm rotor.

mate any hint's/tips on fittin the 2j in? as in what can be re-used from the 1j, basic run down, engine mounts etc?

[CHA54]

use your original mount brackets etc. You can use the 1J powersteer pump, AC compressor and even alternator if the original has a round plug on the regulator.

On the JZX90 2J swap I helped with, it just used a 2J long engine with intake manifold/throttle. It went single turbo at the same time and was already running an adaptronic ECU so we just plugged the 1J loom into the 2J sensors and tweaked the map.
