Aaron,
I may be heading down to LA after the rains stop in the spring (that is if my car is running by then). Maybe we could swing a deal to have a spearco rep intercooler and piping installed !!!

Looks like you guys do some good work down there at driftmotion.

I love how your swap came out!
Mine is next since youre done and they have already started the dismantle on it.
Whats going on mine is the 1J swap, FMIC, intake, Trust 1JZ Downpipe, Tanabe Exhaust, AEM Gauge/Boost Controller, Tokico Blue Struts, Eibach Sport Springs, new clutch, MKIV TT Wheels and once DriftMotion is done, It will get a Shine 2-Hole Lip and a paint job. Interior is very clean (IMO maybe Aaron can voice his opinion on this interior) and I will post pics once its all done in and out to show you guys what I got for $500.

I love it! It runs really great for being stock with just downpipe back exhaust. I KILLED a 350z on the freeway the other day... that was fun. :naughty:
just curious... how much boost are you running... and i never knew you had a 1jz, lol... you just always said "stock" w/ downpipe,exhaust

I dunno... the stock boost gauge pegs at 8psi lol. I haven't have a chance to hook up the hks gauge.

I also raced a 350z with intake, full exhaust, chip, etc. I beat him too even with me granny shifting so it's running pretty good. 0 to around 90mph

I still have the stock 2.25" downpipe though.

I think a 7mgte with stock ct26 at 14psi will beat me... I did a 109 trap when I ran that ols setup. I had a techtom romboard, hks vpc, hks downpipe, and the same 3" exhaust I have now.

Sorry about the hijack, Aaron.
