I'm trying to get a hold of him but he's not responding. I want pictures more than you guys do lol. Here's some pictures to hold you off though (only of my car though...):









Here's a higher res version of my sig:



Money shot:



I've replaced the nasty stock rad with a nice shiny Koyo since that pic was taken.

I did find a pic I took of one of the 350z's that entered:




Hopefully that will hold you guys off till I get the other pics.


Here's a basic mod list:
1jz +r154
Tein Flex c/o w/edfc
Drilled/slotted rotors
Koyo racing rad
3" china ypipe -> 3" dp ->3" cat ->3" tanabe SHM
greddy profec b spec II ebc
15lb wheels of stock jza70



Oh...and no...no badass trophy :(

K, I finally got pics! He didn't take as many as I thought but here's what I got:

Aston Martin (what model is this by the way? db9? I dont keep up with supercars...other than the supra :p) :


Mercedes:


Couple of 240sx's (both turboed):


sr20 from the black one:


Supercharged v8 in a mustang. Sounded WICKED with the hood open!:


The beast '99 ws6. 383 stroker LS1:


Edelbrock Corvette:


Engine bay:


This was after most of the cars left. Row of cars on the right were in the tuner class. I think 2 of the 350z's are there but the 1 blue one left before this pic was taken. My car is the third black one from the left peeking out:

Looks like a DB9 to me (I think the headlamps in the V8 Vantage are a little different.)

Either way, as far as bad ass factor the Aston > *

Masterchief819, your Supra is looking sweet... that engine bay looks immaculate. Your pics have inspired me to try to repaint my wheels, they've been losing flakes of paint for years it seems...

Congrats on the award! :drink1: Prost!

Hey thanks!


Nah, cruise control is the only thing that doesnt work after the swap. Power steering, a/c, stock n/a tach/speedo, oil pressure, and everything else works perfectly though!

i've heard the stock oil pressure is a bad gauge. u might think about getting a more accurate one...

but i've just heard that. mine seems to work fine! :)

so what was it like going from 7mge to 1jz-gte? i've NEVER driven a turbo...or any other supra than my very own N/A.

It was nonturbo automatic before too! When I drove it home from the shop, I had to drive on the highway about 2 hours. I'll never forget the feeling I got when I stomped on it on the entrance ramp. The difference was insane!

You should consider saving for a swap ;)

sweet nice ride man

clean up the cam covers and you got it made!!
The whole engine was cleaned when the swap was made. They scrubbed the cam covers a little too hard on that side and scratched some paint off. No big deal though :icon_razz
