the rhd 1j car is super clean and runs fantastic. I will not drive it i just want to flip it and get some money back. I am not frustrated, just lost ambition and want to spend the money on something I can do with my kids.
OK update time. I have an opportunity to trade this car for a rhd mkiii with a 1jz. it has 92k on it and is completely stock. the owner has many supras and doesn't want a rhd car he also wants me to trailer my two cars 150km one way. should i do it?
this has been going on since there have been streets,driving is being aware of what is going on around you and expecting shit like that to happen. It's funny that when someone walks in front of you "cutting you off" while you're also walking most times you will apologize or exchange some type...
It was pretty quick when I could get the tires to stop spinning. I originally had it as a cruiser so it had 3.73 gears in it and a 5 speed, this equals instant full spool and as such instant wheel spin. I used nitrophyl floats, modified the choke and drilled out the jets. Honestly though I can't...

I really did not consider it a dumb deal. I was willing to give someone a good offer for something I wanted in exchange. Not everyone is out to screw the next Guy over. Would have liked it better if the engine had held together at least until winter though.:biglaugh:
things happen for a reason. yes i should have turned tail and run but i would have felt guilty for making him drive down for nothing. I have a good friend who is going to make sure i don't dwell on what is lost but rather focus on what is left.
The car will be rebuilt and it will be...
I knew about the lexus afm and stock injectors hence why I removed it first thing. I thought you could run the stock gear up to 10psi? Fuel cut seems to be 11-12 with some people getting away with 13. The fuel pressure was set at 43psiI figured it would be a bit rich at that, wish I still had my...
