My 1JZ flywheel looks identical to that JUN one..

Jeff, I think that pic belongs under the "Official Owned Thread"!

"Get" some mechanical experience, man. Get in there, get your hands dirty and learn. Once you start, it's tough to stop. As for having a hardtop, I was thinking of going this route; lighter, more rigid, less leaks. I considered doing the 2JZ swap into a hardtop, swapping my interior over to it...

Dude.. MGS3 is the shit. I was able to play it on a 52" widescreen and it was amazing. I've beaten it on Extreme mode, and I still can't get enough. It keeps me from playing Gran Turismo 4 - yes, it's that fun [to me]. There is a sniper battle where you have to use some real concealment...

Maybe a Kaminari rear bumper? That's what I want for mine, if any.

You should be able to order resistors from an online electronics store, and usually Radio Shack HAS catalogs that you can find "real" electronics in. I remember buying a GRIPLOAD of resistors, pots, op-amps, LEDs, etc from there when I made my "red box" project for phreaking.

Dumb question - is it also gapped to make room for the rear glass wiper? How long after paying should we expect these to be done and shipped? Also, when would you need the cash for this item? I'm interested, but might not be able to do this until about the 20th.

You will rebuilt it, Lam. Home Depot is right around the corner. Show them your pics and maybe they will hook you up with free stuff - remember that sponsor stuff that people were talking about in the other thread?

Looking at the front of the blue MkIII and MkIV, I think I found the color that I will paint MY MkIII. That MkIII is a gorgeous blue.

I'm not saying that he rips people off - he doesn't [unless you count time wasted]. What I'm saying is that you aren't the only one that has had this happen to them by Mike. I've heard at least 3 other stories of the same incident happening with him - the harness is lost, stolen, lost in the...

Yeah, that sounds like Mike's M.O.

Don't let that out.. They will make a movie about it, and then it'll be IMPOSSIBLE to get any shopping done while trying to avoid all of the posers.

Those vertical doors make the car look like a pain in the ass to get in and out.

Ask Arnout.. or Mike Urbano.

..and the 1JZ and 2JZ are both 8.5:1

Someone have a bit of a misogynistic streak?

I wave, but very few local guys with MkIIIs are enthusiasts. I don't think they "get it". I think maybe two guys on base actually have mods, and they wave. One has a brown 87-88 in EXCELLENT condition. The other has a burgundy one, forgot the year, but it has some sort of funky sticker/trim...

Arnout VanDerKamp for inspiring me to get started on the 2JZ=> MkIII swap Orin [OB1] Bivens and his mean 1.5JZ Reg Reimer for his site - actually e-mailed me and was patient during my 7M newbie first year of ownership Mike Urbano for leading the pack of 1JZ swapped A70s in the USA.. and for...
