1987 Jaguar XJ with a turbo 1JZ inline-six

The last time we saw this unique Jaguar XJ sedan it was in Poland. Now it is back and for sale in Norway. The classic British car is powered by a twin-turbo Toyota 1JZ inline-six and JZZ30 five-speed manual transmission. When the car was in Poland it had a single Holset turbocharger making 493 hp (500 PS). However the 1JZ was converted to a twin-turbo system with factory turbochargers making 313 hp (230 kW). Presumably this was done to meet Norwegian Public Roads Administration (Vegvesen) approval. The car rides on BBS 17-inch wheels with Nankang racing slicks.
