Thanks for reading through my struggles and all the information provided to do what I did! This has been the most reliable, best car I have ever owned and it is pretty crazy to think I originally picked it up for $700. Legit a decade of the best memories hooning this beast. Really funny how so many go 2GS when the real badass is the 1GS JZS147/SC JZZ30 and MK4 JZA80. These three cars share so many parts, engineering and attitude its unreal.

Sad to see another 147 bite the dust, but given the work you've done to it over the past 10 years you definitely gave it another lease on life!

I see the post about swapping stuff over was about a year ago. Has the dismantling started or does she still live?

Still alive, insured and driving for now! I need a new car before i dismantle her and the current chip shortage has made that a mess.
