It's actually a R&D car. For the sole purpose of developing a twin turbo kit


Sorry I'm most likely going to be moving onto a different platform soon, so I won't be making much more stuff for these cars in the future.
That sux Jeff. Your input will be sorely missed.

Wow i'm definetly impressed with your setup, I bought my SD GS with the intentions of doing an Aristo swap, I just recently sold my 97 RSP/black SC300 NA-T and the car was great to me, no cels or any hiccups at all, the engine was pretty much bone stock with 176k on it and ran 6psi for over a year with ZERO issues, the trans just had a cooler on it, it was my only car and daily driver..

Previously I had a 1JZ SC, and have been pretty set on going with a GTE engine in the GS, but your setup looks like a great option..

Can't believe I'm hearing that =( Whatever your new platform is, there's going to be a very lucky forum...
I would've loved to get my hands on your Stage 2 kit and tranny for my stock 99 GS3.

So will you still release the Turbo kit for the 2jz before your switch over? I've been waiting with cash in hand since I found out about your kit , and I'm still eagerly waiting.

I'm going to guess his signature holds the answer to that question.

Still doing some extensive reliability testing. I won't be selling any kits here until I become a vendor. Trust me, when the kits are done...I will be pushing them heavily on the site when I am a vendor. You won't be able to miss it lol.

There will also be transmission upgrade packages, all other sorts of chassis bracing/upgrades, and I'll also be offering built motor packages for far less than what any other vendor out there is charging. Fully built forged bottom end shortblocks for about the same cost as a new GTE shortblock. I'll be the one stop shop for GS performance needs, from small power all the way to monster HP
