Default "New" engine finally in

Aaaaand just over a month later the bottom end is knocking. Not really such a productive thread, I just wanted to spread my sadness and frustration. Been out of the SC for 6 months and just got back in it... now I'm out again. Bought it from http://www.engineworldusa.com , can't really say it was their fault but uh...I wouldn't recommend them at all.

What was it a stock one or 1JZ or 2JZGTE? Sorry for your grief. I have not been able to drive mine for like 4 months now and it sucks.

I agree with the single turbo, single exhaust setup is the way to go!
