hey, snakehead just out of curiosity how old are you, what is your power goal, and how much money are you willing to spend!!!
BECAUSE
If you didn't already know your driving a Lexus not a Honda what it takes to feel like your driving a real car is totally different!

if you don't have deep pockets then your dreams are all talk!

if your not looking for at least 300hp in a "SC" then your going to still feel like your driving a BRICK!!

sorry to make it seem like i'm coming down hard on you... the truth hurts!! if you can't see your self dropping at least 3k under the hood... then your looking at the wrong project!

I am old enough , I own a LS430 , I have been thru the drift scene with a couple of 240sx's ,I have had audi's slammed to el caminos, I am not trying to go fast and furious , I just want to build a luxury road car if that makes any cent$ , I understand about the $$ , I have had $7500 wrapped up in my Redtop SR20det , No i am not loaded with cash so i will keep it between the lines.

Try calling JHOT as I know many people recommend them for sourcing 1JZ's, if not you can maybe check our SupraForums.


Good luck!
