  1. Welcome. I'm new here too. I just picked up an auto 88 that has plans for a 2JZ daily. I'm trying to get rid of my 97 GSX before I really tear into the Starion. Any plans for yours?
  2. I did the Rustoleum job on my GSX that was multiple colors when I bought it as a project. It is a very tidious process. It is cheap and if done with care it comes out pretty good as long as you wet sand it and buff it up real nice when all the coats are applied. I'd say you need a garage because the paint takes a while to dry between the pair of coats that are supposed to be rolled on.
  3. It's an auto trans like the title says. I'll ship it everything to you for $600. I realized that these engine and trans are not that expensive but may have to go one two pallets.
  4. I had to stop by and say welcome. I'm former Air Defense Artillery and I picked up a Starion for a project myself so new new to StarQuests as well. I have 4G63, Ford 2.3T, and 2JZ experience so for this project, I'm going 2JZ. I'd give 1JZ or 2JZ some thought for the project.

  6. I'm selling a complete engine and transmission out of an 88 Starion with 88K miles to make way for a 2JZ swap. Turbo needs to be rebuilt and the starter is not included in the sale. It's located in West Palm Beach area and I am willing to ship at buyer's expense (typically $200 for engine and tranny). I'm asking $650 and the engine and transmission will be pulled when I have a buyer. Willing to separate. Thanks
  7. Looks like I'll be picking th car up for $600. Even though I plan a 2JZ swap, is there anything in particular I should be looking for before I pick it up?
  8. Yeah that's it. I went to look at it today. It has a few rust spots here and there. It's missing the cowl between the windshield and hood, and the front bumper is broken. Interior has a few broken plastics but dash is great and the black leather seats aren't in the best of shape but snot bad considering age. I'll sleep on it and go from there.
  9. I was thinking about sticking with the auto tranny. A friend who owns ASAP Performance down here has done work on a 2JZ 240SX stock block never been opened up and the toyota auto transmission running 8's at 154ish. That car has very little work in it. This car I'm looking at seems to be a good condition and he's asking $800.
  10. Greetings from South Florida! I'm Chris. I currently own a 97 Eclipse GSX as a fun car. I've had turbo Ford Rangers, IS300 turbo, and an Eclipse GST in 2002. After looking around I found an auto 88Starion that I'm going to buy and go the 2JZ route. Just want to say thanks for the amount of info the members of this board has provided.
