I wrapped my down pipe yesterday and the wrap is smoking? how long does this stuff smoke before it stops?

Mine smoked for a few days... course, I also happened to forget to tighten one of the coolant hoses all the way, so it was keeping it wet haha...

I want to see more of this. Perhaps a video on the street and or at the track? I feel your excitement for 1jz 150%.

That's a damn nice car, and they're really light too. What rear end is in it?

The stock rear is r180 3.30 which is great for a cruiser but a 3.50 or a 3.70 gear i think would be the perfect balance.

As of right now it's not lsd but maybe next year i plan to go with a r180 lsd from a wrx sti, or a r230 from a 90's 300zx..

Well, that one is very rare, hard to get and very expensive..on top of that it's kinda old being that you need one from a 87-88 turbo 300zx. So to pay $700-$800 for a 20+ year old rear end is crazy..I can get a '04 wrx sti rear for around $400-$500, this one needs custom adapters.
