1JZ scheme HELP!!

[5l_eater]

OK so i can't decide on what to do with my engine bay ...here's how it sits now

I have three schemes in mind i would love some help choosing

scheme 1 - polished valve covers , polished intake and throttle body
scheme 2- black valve covers black intake black throttle
scheme 3 - polished valve covers black throttle and intake manifold

black it out man

Black. Everything. Just black.

...add one big polished turbo and you're done!

well why not powdercoat the turbo to ???

 

[Zumtizzle]

look into techline coatings.

and you may want to get a grommet onto your firewall wiring hole.

Well, think about it. You're engine bay would be like one giant black hole...

...if you polished, say, a gt42r and slapped it in there, your eye, or, more importantly, a young car loving female's eyes would immediately be drawn to the shiny thing dominating your engine bay.

THEN the panties would come off and your day would get immensely better. :icon_bigg

Results not typical. If erection lasts more than four hours see a physician immediately.

Granted, my turbo housing is black, BUUUUUUT I accidently sprayed it with undercoating, so it made sense at the time. I'll probably just sandblast mine and PC it with a high-heat epoxy clear, then call it a day.

[SuperNova]

Polish everything.

 

[5l_eater]

alright bro it all depends on the poll

 

[Slow_Sc3]

i voted polish everything..... just have fun keeping it clean and the monthly upkeep.

 

[hvyman]

polished. but paint the spark plug cover black with black hoses and couplers. just polished and black. no blue red or yellow.

 

[7Mboost]

Polish cam covers, black coil cover, black intake manifold, polish TB, black ICP's, polish intake pipe.

 

[5l_eater]

Quick question...
if i pant my intake will it hold in heat ? and if so enough to worry about
also if i get polished is it a pain to keep looking fresh ?

 

[Evilempire1.3JZ-GTE]

polished valve covers and polished intake and throttle body the way I roll just paint the IC & plumbing black if you live in Ca or smog restrictive area.

Black valve covers. Sand blast/sand the IM and TB to where it's just nice and new looking but don't polish them.

I say leave it how it is and spend the money a big fat turbo, you will get more bang for your buck
