[rocketguy13]

nice! i went 2j and never looked back. so far it was the best decision i ever made. hope yours turns out as good as mine did.

the pictures are smaller because they are from my phine sorry. fogot to take my camera. but here are some more pics from today. we busted our butts today and after some blood and being majorly soar we got the motor out of the clip and into the car. sad to say we ran out of daylight and a few snags but tommorrow motor will be in fully and ready to start being wired and little bits and peices done!


at this point i'm thinking maybe 2jz would've been a better option lol but still loving the 1jz

 

[suprachick22]

a few others

 

[karlmk3]

all the talk about how much harder the 2jz would be lol and how easy the 1jz is ya bs lol i cant get the thing to line up the wiring is a night mare i just cant wait to get it running hopefully in the next mounth it will but this is my first ever supra and this is my first jdm swap as well lol also this is my first turbo car so lots of first

 

[suprachick22]

ok so today got the motor mounted completely almost everything put into/on the car. the drive shaft that was sent to me was wrong sadness : ( but got the right one ordered and no cost yay! tomorrow will start the nightmare of wiring it together and getting the inter cooler back in and raidiator. then hopeully up and running by the end of the month if we run into any more snags :nono:
