Difference being most 2JZ owners can afford to repair it right away and shrug it off as "shit happens" where the average Mk3 owner breaks a fan belt and it's the end of their life followed by much wailing and heartache ;)
(this has improved so much in the last 4>5 years though so now if someone pops a head gasket they don't automatically reach for the razor blades)

Did you guys see the middle guage on the 3 pillar pod? It looked an EGT gauge in which the warning light came on @ approx 800 degrees and it showed when he just backed off and it was near 1k.... That's why they have peak warning lights... DUmb shit

Those are kind of hard to tell, unlike what seems to be his A/F ratio. Full load was only 11.x. As IJ said, I would be a little richer at that power level. It is one thing to pull some fuel at 350rwhp, another to do it with that much at stake.
