Called Aaron today, just got off the phone as a matter of fact. Here's the list:

JDM 1JZ-GTE
R154 Transmission
3" Downpipe and Hi-Flow Cat
RS*R 3" Exhaust

Sending my deposit this week. Can't wait. 2 months seems like it will be FOREVER. :eek3dance

Two months is a ;ong time if you are someone who drives the Supra Daily, and because you love driving it that much. My car has been down alsmot that long already and I can't wait...so I understand.. lol.
Definitely worth the wait though...

I just had a 1J w/ wiring proposed to me, unfortunately it doesn't have a tranny so i'd have to get the bell housing or a new tranny...

If that's the plan, I would just start with a full 2J if I were you.

No need to reinvent the wheel.

Or wait til you drive it before you make a lack of torque comment. :)

Yeah, i was kidding about the block swap, cuz then i would have 2 half engines lying around and whats the point of that not to mention it would be creating alot more work than just goin 2J. BTW, the 1J has its own AFM right? you dont have to use the 7M one

I wonder how come the guys in Australia can drive there 7M powered cars without the AFM? A few guys on the Cressida forums a while back found it wiered our USDM cars can't run without it. They said the check engine light comes on in their cars and thats about it.
