Supras and Skylines get all of the attention. But there is one JDM import that has flown under the radar here in the States. A car that has been a staple of the Japanese drift scene. A car that you might remember from long nights playing Gran Turismo. The JZX100 Toyota Chaser! Today let's take an in-depth look at a tastefully modified 1996 Toyota Chaser Tourer V, and find out why you should probably buy one.

  • You are riot, they are a joy. I sold my 911 and kept the jzx. I'd suggest you get the geometry setup, I use mine for track days and back road fun. With a more aggressive geo set up they feel great and agile. Regarding power if it's just a piggy back and boost up to 1bar we got 287whp at 1bar running bigger injectors, fuel pump and a link ecu.

    • Haha thanks!! From everything that I've read over the years, the safest way to mount a child seat in a car is to use the seat belt. Even for a rear facing seat. Just follow the instructions for mounting via seat belt, tighten the crap out of it, make sure it doesn't wiggle around, and you should be good.

  • These cars are the very definition of blind pop culture. They were considered fodder for their motors back in the early 2000s, infact I bought a JZX100 motor for cheap to put into my Z20 Soarer (and had to throw away the worthless front oil sump of the time for a rear one). They're basically a wannabe BMW E39.
