All this 1jz/2jz stuff has me re-thinking the LS1 swap I originally wanted to do!

[sikgtr]

nice i just got done with mine

[WDRacing]

You FAIL at updates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hinds90]

What's up guys anybody know of a REPUTABLE shop that sells 1jz's. I've tried r@d factory and he said they problably want have anymore for awhile. Talk to gspeed pretty much same answer. would like to try venus auto but it seems like they are a hit and miss company.

[TotalDPerformance]

Guys I apologize fpor the lack of updates. Im waiting STILL on a couple of parts that are hindering me from doing the swap. Another reason is I'm training for and with 20th Special Forces Group getting ready to go to Selection. Again I apologize and will have something soon for you guys.

call tech2 motorsports and see what they can do for you on an engine. Thats where I got mine.

[Coolwhip]

Looks good, lets see this thing going!

[TotalDPerformance]

Well guys first off, I apologize for the lack of updates. I work in the mountains and dont get very much free time anymore but, it hasnt stopped me from getting parts hehe. Right now on the way I have full z32 brakes, 5lug, and q45 rearend on the way. Next is Stance gr+ coilovers, rims/tires, 67-74mm turbo kit(havent decided on size yet), Fuel system and Engine management. Ill have some pics of the parts as soon as they arrive. As for the work, becasue of my job I have to push it back for a bit. Looking at the end of march/beginning of april. again apologize for lack of updates. Wiring was done by tech2motorsports.

[dillards1234]

Modified by dillards1234 at 6:14 PM 2/20/2008

[TotalDPerformance]

Still purchasing parts right now LOL..... since I cant work on my car yet. Being in the mountains working, Im just buying all my parts and gettting it ready so I can do everything at one time. I think im at around 14k and counting ....if I remember correctly could be more.

[TotalDPerformance]

also looking for some rims suggestions.... want either a black with polished lip or bronze/gold with lip, staggered 17's maybe 18s if they look ok. any help will be appreciated.

[dillards1234]

I would buy some 17's with black and polished lip thats what I got on my s13 LS1 swap thats almost done just another hour and done

[TotalDPerformance]

Didnt realize i posted in my older thread on accident. But, as for part updates. I recieved my q45 rearend, axles and rear hubs. Waiting on front hubs,brakes.

I pick the car up on the 20th in louisiana to trailer it to Colorado so I can start on my swap. Im looking for the beginning of June for it to be done. Ill be on stock twins for now until the fall gets here then ill move over to a 67mm or 72mm turbo.

Anybody in colorado thats wants to make a trip to Grand Junction feel free to come by.

Will update when either more parts arrive or when i get back from louisiana and start getting my hands dirty.

[redtopsdrop]

badarse. did you get the ic piping from tech2. i was wondering if there piping had a bead around the ends. the photo on their site doesn't really show and i don't want to be blowing couplers off constantly. btw alexandria is where a ****load of my family is from. i used to go up there a few times a year.

[TotalDPerformance]

yeaa I pretty much got everything from Tech2. The piping is beaded around all ends. I hear ya, i was constantly doing that on my evo, pulling over fixing it and then doing it again. But i finally fixed it for good. How far are you from Waco/killeen area? Yea I lived in Alex for about 12 years. But now in Colorado for the time being.
