everything looks fantastic. you have an amazing car that is one step away from an ultimate driving machine (apologies to BMW).

In comparison to the shot in your sig, the clear corners make the car so much more photo worthy in my opinion. Without the orange to distract the eye, it is much more easy to get lost in each frame in an effort to soak in all the details that have been accounted for during your build-up.

How much RWHP/TQ are you making now? Also how much power will the 1UZ bottom end handle before it needs to be forged?

Love the color
Love the engine bay
Love the seats
Love how you mounted your gauges.
Not in love with enormous wheels. It looked like your car was slammed, and then i wondered why is it so high off the ground... Yea, but a great clean SC.

thumbs up!

Those seats are kind of pricy! I used supra brackets and modified them.

I agree, but what would I do with the holes? Looks like I’ll just do a body kit to make it go away.

Fronts 20 x 9 36 offset Tires are Continental contact 2’s 245/30/20
Rears 20 x 10 35 offset Tires are LingLong 255/35/20 (these will soon be 275 series, I also have some Continental contact 2’s in a 265 series setting in the shop)

I do not have a number yet, I am waiting until my 6-speed goes in to dyno/tune it.
