maybe u can start with the radiator itself,are u using the 1jz's or bimmer? if its bimmer maybe its because the radiator cant coup with it and as for your info the 1jz are pretty hot tempered.....:D

thanks for your reply Jo, my temp shoots up almost reaching the red line while the air cond is turn on. its fine while driving without air cond.

hi guys, this is the first time posting in here, that's because BMWs are growing on me! I'm using a Nissan right now, later planning to get myself an E34 or an E39 520i for conversion to 2JZ (and don't bother with the JPJ approval, just keeping the car as stock as possible)

I know there's a lot of converted E34 to 1J and 2J around, but there's almost no E39 with this kind of mods, is there any problems with the conversions or is it due to the car is too new? If possible, E39 is my target because I like the styling more and it is seriously cheap nowadays.

 

[jo-e34]

when there's a will there's a way.......get your e39 fast......while its cheap....due to the downturn.....and chuck in a 2jz as soon as possible...before the price is sky rocketing......not becos of the car is new.......but mainly ppl are still heavy hearted to part with the original.....and let a japs....sit in......

 

[stormlcc]

whooohoohoo! tempting tempting! can't sleep when i think about the sleeper E39

 

[jo-e34]

don sleep the used car is still open......got get one...this evening......pay up tomorrow....send to workshop......on saturday......then u can pick up during....raya.....lol....

 

[stormlcc]

haha, u think the mechanic has a whole team of ppl like F1 meh? can kau dim everything within 1 night. If he finishes it within 1 week i damn happy already. summore holiday mood already.

 

[jo-e34]

well....not exactly the expertise of an F-1 team....and....not as many ppl as a F-1 team....but.....i've witnessed......an E34 transplant....from.....ori engine...to....2jz/1jz......within less than a week.......

 

[stormlcc]

well if the mechanic is very very expert on a specific mod he really can do it very fast lah........my mechanic who is an expert on RB transplants only need 1 day for my car's conversion, and he still managed to clean the engine bay and car interior to make it ready for JPJ inspection......all i can do when he told me to that it was ready is open my mouth and can't close it for 1 whole day

 

[jo-e34]

true.....so those experienced workshop.....don have to wait for so long.......
