    what is better? 2jz front clip or just the engine

    ok so if i had a 2jz than it would be better to switch the top to a 1jz top... and if i had a 1jz than it is better to switch the cams for the 2jz cam.. by the looks of it and by all the parts you are able to interchange between the 2 engines they are like fraternal twins

    question about single versus twin

    N/A Clutch Decisions

    stage 3?? i would go with the competition because they are cheap but if you are gonna be abusing the tranny than the clutchmaster would be safer because they are well known and well respected and if they are sponsered in need for speed then you know they must be reliable.
