Not normally a fan of 1.5jz setups, but if you already had everything I'm all about the "use what ya got" principle . Great looking car and it's definitely coming together nicely!

Thanks I will post the Videos once i fired it up.
I finished the wiring last night so should be able rap it up tonight.

Thanks you sir.

Thanks you sir, i didn't wanna use the 1JZ head but didn't wanna buy a GTE swap and tear it apart and rebuild the whole thing so i gave him my 1JZGTE head after i part out my engine he decided he wanted to use it , he didn't wanna go Na-T because of the manifold going over top.
I told me i would been a waste of money buying an Aristo swap since he wasn't gonna use the internal anyway so i had to work with what he had.

The turbo wasn't my choice , it's big for road racing lol GT4276 but that's what he wanted we might end end going with the SP QSV.
R154 wasn't my choice that's what he wanted but i know it's gonna break and we will end up with the V160.

We are aiming for mid 800rwhp on E85, again the weakest point on this car is the Tranny, but will see what happen.
