Nice car, but this is the first thing that stuck out to me as well.





Definitely a sleeper. Very mild looking from the outside. What turbo are you running?

yeah i never intended for it to look nice at first it was more function over looks, i bought the car from a junk yard lol, its a garret/precision hybrid t67, the place i take the car to for tuning built the turbo for me

God I need to do a JY build! All mine are usually super-expensive crazy ones that sometimes suck the fun, and money, out of the project.

it was nice to start with a roller that was basicly worthless and i intended to keep it very cheap but got a little carried away with the build, its no longer what i would call a budget build but i wanted it to be reliable and i wanted to destroy the 522whp that the car made last year, so far i can say its reliable and on 9lbs of boost (wastegate boost) it still blows off the et streets from a 40-50 mph roll

Damn the car looks beautiful, sadly my cracked side mirror is gonna mess it all up when I'm trying to see it at the track behind me

har har, we will line um up at some point this summer, i think it should be a good race car weighed 3300 on the dot this morning with a full tank full interior and those heavy ass cobra rims

i'd be very interested to see the chain in your trans after the season... all that weight and whatnot on what I can only assume is going to be 600whp+

make me think twice about going 2.93 7/8ths :io: and lower the boost
