im an engine importer thats how i got it they are pretty spendy motors though ranging from 3-3500 depending on wats all there. I make sure i get clips only but motorsets are cheaper and i do alot of package type build ups for my guys and customers. This is my personal/shop car. Im working on the gauges right now.

But yeah guys....ill get you the wiring info np.....just want to clean it up and refine it for the different models. Right now i have the SC300 5sp to Soarer VVTI done. the reg GTE also is done....now those with tems and TRC is another story but rather simple. id rather give a complete answer then a half assed one.

OOOOOOOOOOO she runs super linear and quick!
Issues- Gauges dont read or read incorrectly...will start work on that asap.

the gearing on the R154 is really nice. 1st gear is a bit short but second and third are where its at.other than that the car is really nice...super quiet and pulls strong. Shes running on 92 octane with a bit of octane booster(dont have exact numbers).

thats because its not a vertex kit, its the vis knockoff kit
you can tell because the grill coutout is too high, on the vertex kit the bottom of the grill cut out is even with the bottom of the headlights, like this:
