Engine Swap Jeep Cherokee Limited 1995 For Race

Jeep Cherokee engine swap Toyota's 2JZ-GTE VVT-i in the engine room. "I really want to be toned and equally curious turbo engine. Apparently the result was unexpected," said Arif who calls himself not a racer.

The replacement machine has a huge impact. "Yet this is all still the standard engine. If you already use the competition definitely louder," said Doni Satria of DonSa Garage workshop, Ciledug, Tangerang who believed install the machine.

According mainstay Springhill Off-road Racing Team is all style cars take turns. Example, while still wearing the Cherokee engine, continue to step on the gas pedal. 

But after changing the engine, even more lifting gas because the car was sliding a bit tight though just trampled. "If trodden on, baseball certainly turn the corner," said the man who was never out of the hat.

Understandably, the previous engine power estimate stands at 180 hp, but after replacing the turbo engine jumped to 283 hp, and even then with limited turbo boost below 1 bar.

Subsequent impact on the braking point. In the previous modifications, the braking point close to the corner. But the machine-made 'new' is still looking for the ideal braking point. Based on this experience, the next modification in the sector to better grip the brakes again. Understandably, this car is still relying on the factory standard brakes.

Although only adjustments to new conditions, Arif was able to grab a position in the class 2 national championships G3.2 speed off-road in Lampung some time ago. "Maybe the new 3 series heck can really control the car properly and quickly," he said.

2 The position can be achieved also thanks to good power transfer from the engine, girbok to wheel. Luckily, girbok that has long attached coded R154, and an innate gearbox 2JZ engine. Use of this gearbox is very advantageous because it allows doing shift at high rpm. The standard Jeep Cherokee could not accommodate it.
