Trying to jam one of these three into a Gen 3. All are teh suck to fit so it's a matter of which one will get the most biatches.

V6 is VQ30 with twin GTR turbos.
V12 is 1GZFE 5.0l Toyota.
2JZ is a 2JZ with whatever bigass turbo on it.

These three need a custom X member, option 4 needs some poly pipe and hose clamps.

Dammit I pressed the wrong one,

V12 is what I wanted to press.

As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
 
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

Sif not serious. Have dropped V12 and V6 in engine bay today. Both need custom Xmember as would 2JZ. I'm talking completely new fabricated Xmember with rack position changed.

Nothing exceeds like excess.


454 injected chev

Then add two big fuckoff turbos.






I clicked the V12.

I agree with Jase, with the blown 454.
To pick off the list, I would pick 2JZ. Sure, the Century v12 would be good, but I would imagine availability if parts would be an issue?

Voted for EJ25 SoHC

Cheers,

Lol Marv. I briefly thought of that, but to be honest I am yet to think of a car that the V12 *should* go into that it will fit into. The V6 was being a tall decked *** and they sound mootastic so I slammed the V12 in for saturday afternoon entertainment and it fitted better and will get more *******(or Ladyboys in Cracka's case) than the V6.

P.s. Your Sig is epic. I loled til I saw the raven saying nevermore, then I bowed to your skills at finding cool pics on teh internets. You spelt herra wrong though.

I would recommend using Merbau or Victorian Ash for that front engine mount, Cypress Pine is not classed as a hardwood.

Surely a V12 powered MX83 Grande would raise some eyebrows. You stick with both the Toyota roots of the engine, and the fact you've already got a Cressida. Gratuitous win on both fronts.
