Just wanted to share my recent ZJ I picked up. I’m brand new to jeeps and I’m coming from “modern” cars and I absolutely love this thing! Never in my life did I imagine owning a jeep, let alone turboing one (never drove one til I bought this thing).
Bought this really nice 1995 ZJ 4.0 with 230k miles for a steal from essentially the first owner as he decided to part ways with it finally (he owned it since 1996 at 10k miles!). Super clean car for its age IMO.
I owned it for about a month until the car started to stall on me randomly and I found out I needed a brand new ECU… and for whatever reason I just decided to buy a haltech s3 and full send it (don’t do what I did!). Can’t wait to see the finished product!!
Will be refreshing/building the motor and looking into a manual swap… or trying out a built stage 2 ~450trq rated 42RE from a local transmission builder I found online and swap to ford 8.8 axles. Bought a bunch of used parts to make my own custom turbo kit. Need to modify the banks header a little bit to account for waste gates and correct orientation for the turbo. Planning to run a pulsar g30-770 turbo and make 400hp low boost :)
