Thank you, I've put a little time and a little $ into in over the years The Innovate is good aslong as you don't run leaded fuel, I used to go through about 2 Bosch sensors a year.

Where is the 2JZGE option lol.

Seriously, I need to go NA-T. I pulled up next to a S2000 last night and put my head down in shame. I shouldn't feel like that in a SC. Maybe someday I'll find the time and money to maintain this motor and install a quality NA-T kit.

My engine consist of a 2JZ-GTE with precision 76MM turbo, 272 cams/valve springs, 4" downpipe, 1000cc injectors/E85 setup, painted accessories with billet pulleys, and other polished parts. I replaced the water pump, oil pump, crank pulley, valve seals, FMS, RMS, and other misc seals.

The engine will be mated to a V161 with 6spd JDM diff and 6spd driveshaft. I should be dropping it in shortly.

I'm shooting for 800+ RWHP.



gues who hates you! this guy *sneer*

so i traded my 97 sc300 in 3 years ago for a 2004 volvo s60R, BIG MISTAKE! im looking to getting a 3rd sc soon since i simply love these cars! looking at this thread i see a TON of gte swaps, whether it be 1j or 2j and a few SC 1uz's, which i would like to have, but here is my idea for my next sc: a GM LS1 6-speed swap, whether its a 5.7L or 6.0L doesnt matter to me. ive seen it done in a gs, so that leads me to believe it can be done in the sc, anyone have any thoughts or info on this kind of a swap?
