In the last three and a half years, I've put about 80,000 miles on my car.....not kilometers.........:biglaugh:
I've also had it at about 170mph.

..you love doing a little bit of wiring.
..you couldn't afford to do a 2JZ swap.
..you like twin turbochargers, running in parallel.
..you want a front facing intake manifold.
..you want intake piping that doesn't route cool air from the intercooler over a hot engine.
..you *-fucking hate-* karman vortex style air flow meters!!!
..you dislike the 7M because it has done you wrong - or vice-versa.
..you like the idea of upping your displacement by "simply" replacing your short block with a different stock short block.
..your 3.0L option is a "1.5JZ", not going back to a 7M.
..you love the Supra enough to at least "keep it in the family" - just not the same engine family.

You have over 2000 posts and the longest build thread in history and still don't know where the cam angle sensor plugs are.:sarcasm::kickinthenuts:
sorry had to do it adam

There's longer build threads. Look at IJ's build thread, his has the most posts by far. Mine's 1/4 the number of posts of his, although my build thread is 2 1/2 years old. As for the cam angle sensor plugs I've barely done any work to the motor and am slowly working my way through the motor, learning more about it as I do upgrades and repairs. Hell, I try and avoid wiring if at all possible.

I guess "little" is a relative term. For some people, it's a little - for others, it's a ton.

or you like to dril holes in firewalls and run it that way works perfect no wiring haha

you have to push your car off because it doesnt make enough torque to get it moving from a dead stop.

you can drive your car home after popping an intercooler pipe.

you don't have to buy a front-facing manifold.

your alternator doesn't have to look for a new place to live.

your throttle linkage wasn't designed by Rube Goldberg.

you don't have a spot on your block for a mechanical fuel pump.

you keep spare capacitors in your glovebox.

you've never wanted a VPC

you don't need to afford to "do" a 7M properly as a stock JZ longblock will do just fine.

you wonder why there's a motorcycle brand on your timing cover.

checking your oil won't tell you if you're low on coolant.

Toyota was the last person to touch the inside of your motor.
