his bumper got freshly repainted and i'm guessing they didn't have time to put it on......as of now, i think his car is not running as they're rewiring his ECU.....or something....

sorry guys...

the car was running... but not driven.... there was a rush to ge thte car to HIN so some things on order from japan and other manufacturers were not in yet... i.e the radiator hose from blitz with teh bung for gauge.....

teh bumper was off in taht pic becoz we were showing off my supra v-spec Blitz Intercooler... teh core size was about 24"x 12" x 4.75" .... its larger than teh greddy 4-row on all those 800+rwhp monsters...

teh wiring was removed after all teh time to get it together... as we are putting in a stand alone now.... so everything will beign from scratch again for teh wiring......

the hachi does have a 20 valve black top and a lot of jdm stuff.... very very clean... and babied mroe than my IS..... the motor in my IS is a V300 2jz-gte off a 2000 aristo with less than 9000km so its about 6-7000 miles on it......

i'll post more pics as everything else comse along... i.e. larger turbos, fuel upgrade, tranny upgrade....

also... jsut to let you guys kno... those blitz technospeeds are 19x9 +42 front and 19x10 +45 rear..... fatties all around....

and that maxima is a turbo maxima of my bro-in-law that was invited to be at the maxima booth at the show after the reps saw the car....woo hooo
