Does this car belong to anyone on the forum?
I believe it's in Canada. These pics were snatched off of a friend of mine from another forum.
Does anyone know this car?

Interesting, never saw a charged UZ that looks like that.

Read below. Note the procharger on top of the engine.

Someone with any info on this please let us in on it.
From the picture it looks like no acc. whatsoever unless they have been relocated. It doesn't look like there is enough room for them though.

Im assuming that its a 97+ 1UZ motor with a custom intake manifold and a pair of snails? Or a crazy blower Ive never seen before for the 1UZ?

That looks crazy, but those circled things in the second picture are the TEIN EFDC controller solenoids that adjust the dampening remotely from the Cabin.

It is a custom intake and you can see the procharger (possibly) sitting on the drivers side right by the missing battery.

what do you think the red thing is on the intake tube? Man, a pretty wild set-up! Looks like 295's on the rear too, what do you guys think?

The red thing is a tial BOV and I doubt those are 295s. I have 295s on my car and they look wider than those.
Also, I'm sure the guy (if its indeed a 97+ motor) just swapped in a newer motor. (for the guy who asked about the older front bumper)
