Yes it is the 2JZ-GTE with VVT-i. I wish I could get tuning parts for this engine in the states. The engine pushes around 450 Hp right now. As for the emblems they only make Silver or Gold, no black, unless they get painted. The Gold matched the car when I got but these days it sticking out pretty bad. Might change to the silver someday. Just not high on my list of things right now. I really want the Veilside hood but for some reason it is more expensive here in Japan.

Are those rims the Work Meister S1 3 peice, or are my eyes playing tricks. The look great. Show me some profile pics of the car so I can see the rims clearer please. Thanks. Overall good look as long as you have that GTR intercooler, you might as well show it.

Yes this is a real Aristo. The main difference are the 2 picures below. The engine and the steering wheel on the right. Also it has a 4 speed A/T.
The rims are Work Meister S1 3 piece, front 9.5J, rear 10.5 J. Don't have any good side pics but when I get a chance to clean it up I will post some.

Ahhhh it's always nice to see another aristo owner on the board. I see a greddy oil catch tank and a night pager aluminium water bypass kit. I already bought the same stuff but my catch can is made by Carbing and the night pager item is already on the way. NICE!

I bought the carbing in Hongkong when i was there last month. It also came with the shiny cylindrical tank and a couple of hoses that are too short for my purposes, so I am thinking of changing it to s/s lines like yours. Here's a pic of it in a box:

By the way, why don't you get some of the HKS upgraded 540cc injectors? Should be readily available since you are already in Japan. Or you might even go nuts with the Sard 800cc injectors but might be an overkill if you are not going single turbo on that car....

Looks nice. I don't have SS lines on tank but I plan to change. I am going to probably get some stock US Supra injectors, they are 550's and you can get them for around $50 a piece instead of the 430's I have right now. I already have a Walbro 255 high pressure pump. 800's are too high for me unless you are going like t78 turbo. I am going to go with the HKS gt30 pro kit for now. I need to upgrade my transmission to handle anything higher then 500hp.
