Update on "The sleeper"
 

;)

I picked up a 85MM throttle body from a Infiniti Q45 and a 4" aluminum tube for the intake manifold plenum. The motor & tranny mounts are all finished and it's mounted. :_paranoid It looks so wrong yet so right sitting in there.

Very cool.........name suits it too :unibrow:

Well, sort of a sleeper. :_paranoid
It's a 2 door '63 Nova!!!!!
Everybody knows that...Do you have 6 banger emblems for it?...The chevy ones?

That is one awesome Idea, I wish I would have thought of it, probably the only one in the world. I will be disappointed if you don't keep the steel wheels and hub caps.

Is that yours jason?

Too Cool whosever it is,

Rick :thumbsup: :clap: :patriot: :bow:

Yep, that's Jason's project. It should be one quick car when he's done.

I also like that you had The Offspring going in the background. :thumbsup:

sooooooooooo ummmmmmm..... supra engine?

that has got to be one of the kewlest "dare to be different" ideas in a long long time. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

i like it
 

Love the idea. I cannot even post a picture and you have a video of your progress. Makes me feel.....some what less of a man.

:thumbsup:

Yep, I've got the original 6 cyl emblems and I plan to run 15" steelies.


:thumbsup: I haven't really figured out how to dub music in so it's the next best thing. I had to wait a little while before something good came on. ;)


:thumbsup: We'll sorta, this particular engine was from one of those used Japanese engine places and it was out of what's called an Aristo. Which is basically a GS300 in Japan. The oil pan is different than the Supra's and is better suited for this chassis.



As funny as this sounds it is easier for me to post videos than pictures. :thumbsup:


BTW: Check out the comments that are attached to the video.

Love it!

Reminds me of a webpage I found a year or so ago where a guy is/was putting a 2JZGTE/Getrag 6-speed into a 64 or 65 Chevelle. I loved it and thought his work was great.

You should have seen all the grief that was dished his way when he posted on Chevelles.com....

Just keep it wound up and making boost and it'll be a blast. I've driven a T88'd 6-speed MkIV Supra and I think I would make better speed on a bicycle as long as the revs were below 5000, just the nature of the beast. Things got very interesting, very quickly, as the tach went past 5300 or so... :unibrow:

:thumbsup: I knew another guy put one into a 58 Apache but the Chevelle would be fun also. :unibrow:

I can only imagine how much flack I will get at the track with this thing. :_paranoid

I've done the manual tranny, big turbo thing and it is a chore. This car will have an auto and a proper stall, & a trans brake so I will leave on boost and never look back. ;)

Slow4dr very nice choice, and cool project! :thumbsup: The 2JZ is a hell of a power plant. I really love mine.

I saw a Nova wagon don't know the year, that is running in the Hot Rod Drag week. He is running the newer I-6 that they put in the Envoy / Trailblazers I believe. Built motor and a GT47-80mm Garrett. He is running high 8's - low 9's!!! :eek:

Check this guy out for parts and knowledge about the 2JZ www.inductionmotorsports.com His name is Jeff Bromberger. Definitely know's his stuff.
