Whats wrong with strippers *****? I love how people think they are better than other people because of their job. Strippers need love too bud. Its legal, they make a lot of money, they are usually hot. Only bad thing is they are usually bat shizt crazy, but that describes most women.
That's why men die before women, because we want to.
Oh and Mike... good find on the SC.
Vrank LOL

Anyways this thread is supposed to be about the car, which no doubt will end up with a shocker sticker on the window and a marijuana leaf hanging from the rear view.

LOL. Did not mean to cause trouble.
OK, back on topic. Here are pics of the car and clip.
I'm going to have it repainted the factory color. I actually quite like it. Wheels are going to be the only deviation from the stock appearance. Those are going to be Volk TE37s. Not exactly original, but I love those wheels to death; function and style.
As it turns out, the clip was on ebay. The shop is closed today, so I had him send me pics of it, and he said he would send me the pics from the ebay listing. I, however, bought it sight-seen in person. I'm going to get more detailed pics of it on Wednesday, when I return from New Year's in NY.
Right now, the plan is to get it running and driving, and then figure out what changes I want to make from there. Single turbo w/ QSV is pretty much a given. Rear end will almost certainly get changed out too. If I duplicate the setup on one of the other cars there, I should end up with 700 to the wheels. That's good enough for me to start off with.
Interior is definitely getting the thrice-over. I will probably change the whole interior to black, because I love black leather interiors. Power seats and creature comforts are staying. No drift-car interior here.

Obviously the your opinion of this person you have never met is quite low, but she's actually a pretty decent human being. It's no big deal though. She's not my wife or my girlfriend, so there's really no need to send the thousand armies of Persia against you.

Mas o menos. I never even saw this damn thing until she told me to come get it. Up until then,all I ever saw was a Harley Davidson Super Duty.

Cool bro, thx for the pics...seems like you've gotten a really good project build. 1. SC-check, 2. 1jz swap-check, 3. Exterior paint plan-check, 4. Interior re-do-check, 5. Wheels-check. Great start! Will definitely be following this closely. Thx for sharing, enjoy NY-have fun, be safe, and see you next year!

OK, so today we started up the clip engine and everything runs beautifully. I nearly fell on my *** when I saw the electronic gauge cluster! This purchase just keeps getting better and better.
So far, this is where I am on configuration: I just bought a nice takeoff HKS Super Drager single outlet exhaust, which is great, because we actually found Super Drager decals in the glovebox, so it was what the car had anyway. gixxer_drew suspension setup has been ordered, and the JDM rear wiper conversion is in the bag too. The Sard gauges are coming along, but I'm half and half on the MOMO steering wheel. It really takes away from the luxury car look.That's something I will have to think about. Ordered a meth kit to help keep things cool and stable.
It's going into the shop this week, and should be done by the next.'
Thanks for the support, and Have A Happy New Year!
