Nope nope. I'd rather stick with the tried and tested motor. 2JZ Baby!!! What other engine can hold 800-900rwhp on a stock block (of course with fuel sys)? Don't try to pawn that motor off on me, you know you want a 2JZ!!! Haha

QuikTurbo-Keep up updated and let us know when we can come check it out!!!

PS. I already called him. The swap to US-spec engine will cost me less than yours man!!!
If you don't mind me asking how much is he charging? You're talking about Larry McNeil of AutoTuneres in Oviedo,FL correct?

Gives me goose bumps just lookin' at her!

Just came in today. It's a 98 US spec motor with 30k miles

I'm going to be doing some cleaning, some tweaks, maybe polishing the intake and throttle body (not sure yet).

Thanks Kevin.

I consider myself very lucky on the motor I found. I guess you just have to be ready to move on something. I had to jump on it within an hour of it's posting.

Alright guys, after a really long day in the garage. It finally made it into the engine bay
I can't even tell you how sweet it was to stand back, and see it finally coming together.

Picking up my intercooler this week, and starting to get everything buttoned up. I still have to install the walbro pump, and a few other little things. I really think it should be done in a couple weeks! I only get to work on it a day or two a week Too much travel.

Anyways, enjoy.

Chris
