Thanks again for the love guys, i'll definetly have some video up when the 1jz is in and running, shouldn't be long.




RikTT, yeah that's the MK3 your thinking about, we actually drove from SC to texas and back non stop to go get it, the 7mgte in it actually runs great but it's getting a 2jzgte swap within the next 6 months.

I paid $1096 including tax for my 1jz swap, went to go pick it up and it was complete as hell, from cruise control, fuel pump, ps reservoir, side mount with piping, 110% complete motorset.

Hey, wanted to show you a pic of my old teal Civic since I just recently found a bunch of old pics on some old CD-Rs. Interestingly I had always wanted an Integra but never got one.

Are you taking the 1JZ apart to inspect it before swapping it in?

Good price on the comlete set. You gonna drop it in as is or tune up ?

msteele, i wish i was man but all i plan on doing is a compression check, then all new oem toyota, water pump, timing belt, valve cover gaskets, thermostat, s belt, plugs, throw some royal purple in it and pray!


RikTT, yeah man i bought my SC right before my buddy decided to get the MK3, i honestly was a little jealous at first, definetly one of the cleanest mk3s i've seen in person. the 7M runs fine but it'll have a single turbo 2jzgte by the end of the year.


thanks MILT!

You have an inline four license plate frame on your sc.

I wish I could afford that many parts for my car already. I'm jealous of those mint leather seats. Clean car though, sorry to hear about the fender damage.

lol yeah that's the plate off my integra, i need a new cool plate frame for the SC. Normally i wouldn't have the cash to do a build like this but selling my teg for 6k helped, picked up my SC for 3200 and then tax return came in as well so it was just good timing.

wow he still has that 7mgte in it?
yeah his 7M runs mint, has upgraded head gasket and all he drove it from texas to SC with no problems, it'll have a 2jzgte swap by the end of the year though.

paco, what part of s.c. are you in? im in the columbia area. we should get up some time
sounds good man, i have always lived in NE columbia but i recently bought a house in lugoff so i'm still close to NE columbia, i'd love to do a columbia or charlotte meet, there's so many turbo lexus's in columbia! I know of a couple black turbo sc's couple with TT wheels and one with fn01rc's, gunmetal one with CCW's, any of these yours??

My car cost like 3x what yours did. I wish I could have found a clean sc for the price you paid.
