FINALLY!!!! Yay! I can make a thread for my 1JZ! I'm so excited. I dropped my baby off with Aaron and Dave (Driftmotion) yesterday. In 2-3 weeks I'll be picking her up. It's sad not having her around though. She's so far away! :wtc: But I know she's in very good hands.

I'm trying to get the pictures from Aaron, but they're super busy down there. I'll update this first post whenever there's something new, but here's the breakdown of what she's leaving Pomona with:

JDM 1JZ-GTE w/70K Miles (113K Km)
Barely used R154 (Seriously. It's SUPER clean!)
New Exedy clutch kit (stock spec for now)
1JZ tach
Koyo Race Radiator
Upgraded intercooler
2.5" polished aluminum IC Piping
BIC Mounts
Samco RED Hose Kit
SS P/S Hose
3" DP (FREE WITH CLIP!!!!) ::w00t::
3" TP
GReddy Speed Cut Defencer (because 110 MPH isn't enough)
Walbro 255 fuel pump

Pre-existing upgrades:
Custom CAI
RS*R ExMag GT-II 3" cat-back
Megan Racing Track Spec coilovers
Megan Racing front and rear strut bars
Konig Maxxim Lockdown 17" Wheels
Kumho Ecsta 235/45/17 front, 245/45/17 rears
4:30:1 LSD

12/1/07 Engine fired up with a rodknock, see page 9 for details. Aaron is taking care of it starting Monday.

12/14/07 Engine is installed, running, with only a few minor things left to go. I'm excited. I'm anxious. I can't wait for my baby to come home! :D

12/17/07
Test Video 1 Test Video 2

12/19/07 She's home, safe and sound. Kept hitting fuel cut on the way home. Pissed me off. Aaron suggests an Apex-i Super AFC Neo, AFPR kit, and some tuning to clear it all up. Link

12/29/07 Boost gauge, AFC Neo, and Aeromotive AFPR have all been installed. She'll be tuned by the end of next week.

Just talked to Aaron again. He said the grenaded 7M-GE is on its way out. I just added an intercooler and polished aluminum IC piping.

Wowie wow wow. I had thought about it last night. I crunched some numbers today and found out I had enough to add it on. I couldn't help myself. :D

Great feeling huh?

Wait til you get it back...

You're gonna enjoy the drive back home on the 5. Good thing you have that SLD.

Make sure to post before you leave so I can stop by and see it.

I might be joining Jaguar at DynoExtreme if Robert is done with his car when mine is done. Don't know if he was serious or not. LOL.

The paint is fxcked right now, so don't expect what you see in the picture. :D
