Exclusive shots of the test day yesterday. I thought id give them to you guys first. The car had its first official "outing" yesterday afternoon at the NOS center in san bernardino. The car looked good with alot of power. After a few suspension changes the car started getting dialed and looked amazing on the track.

looks to me that hood would be the Seibon hood that was talked about in this thread.

I was the only one that liked it and everyone else pissed on it

It's the pic I posted and not the first one

Hey 9520G, you're from jerzee so I'll let you know.

There is this guy from Bullish Racing in Hackensack that is one of the best guys on the 2JZ.

I could be mistaken but I think his name is Bert.

Titan Motorsport used his help when their motors blew out at an event . . .

Bert is very knowledgeable on the 2JZ-GTE. Ara has been racing them for some time. I got to meet up with them awhile back in Palmdale. Just don't expect to make it inexpensive...

Well I'm about ready to get rid of my DSM but I cant be without a fast car, so the money from that car would toawrds the swap, Bert might be very knowledgeble with 2JZ's but can he do a swap on a totally different car?

Good luck to who all is planning to do this swap. Getting it to bolt in etc is the easy part. The big hurdle is to wire everything up to maintain a "streetable" car. We are running a haltech E11 in the drift car.

Would you guys be willing to do again for just regular customers?
