when the car had a probe motor and FWD it ran 11.20s

Just fyi... the motor in that car in the pics posted is not a 2jz-gte

It is a 2jz-ge (the non-turbo version) however, i'm sure he has built the bottom end... just not sure why he would use the GE head if he wants to make gobs of power... ohwell.. otherwise the thing looks pretty crazy.. other than that tiny I/C lol

I'll just post the pics here so people don't have to go through 15 pages to find them... although I would suggest checking out the dudes fab work throughout the project... pretty competent fabricator.

i knew it was a 2j something or another lol. since I am ip banned from there I have to use a proxy to read it which takes forever, so I have only skimmed through the last few pages with the motor in the car.

not sure what he has done with the motor, cuz like I said I havent been able to talk with him much lately, but I know the turbo in those motor pics is not the one staying on the motor, he has a much bigger one. he def. knows what he's doing though

I thought it would be cool to have a rear bonnet that was CF weave underneath and then paint the top silver to match the car. That way running around it looks normal, but pop the bonnet and its CF underneath.

Hey my name is Federic. Judging from your sig, I'm guessing you have a MR-S. Are you selling your 1zz-fe motor if you plan to do the 2zzge swap or you keeping it? Let me know if you have any turbo parts for sale.

>>I originally was going to do 3S-GTE swap on my celica, but I picked up a 91 MR2 and I'm just gonna play with that car for awhile.
