[JonathanL]

Nice brakes damn, this thing is going to be solid

[death 4kqt]

havent looked at this in a while, wow its look really good. Stance, wheels and brakes are perfect IMO. Under the hood looks just as good as the outside. Sweet.

[chaloux]

Can't wait to see it come to life!

Looks great Ben. Maybe we can make an exception for the "other" colored 4kq's for the PNW BBQ ;-)

[85oceanic]

Thank you Dan! xD

[easterneurocoupe]

are you going to make radiator shrouding?

[85oceanic]

are you going to make radiator shrouding?

I need to, but I am going to worry about that later, after I get it running. More than likely I will be changing out the radiator for a different one.

That off-grey color you painted the engine bits looks great (as does the entire car). Do you have Quattro Script interior?

Thank you! And yup, I sure do have Quattro Script! I just need the door cards, as mine are miss-matched.

I just wanted to check in and let you guys know I am still alive. xD I have been taking a break from the 4k to work on my buddies MK3 Supra on AEM with a 1jz swap...

Specs.: 1jz, AEM V2 ECU, Stock turbos, intercooler, Walbro 255, test pipe, 3" Tanabe Hyper Medallion Exhaust, 200 Amp Alternator, ~15-16 psi

We did a bunch of polish work too ( I'm too lazy so, Doug did most)




We also went and had it dyno'd

We ended up making 335whp/350wtq.

Aside from all that, I did manage to find time to wrap my down-pipe and get it all bolted in. Also Derek hooked me up with some new-to-me window switches and hazard switch, so I now have working windows and turn signals.

I can't wait to see how that holset acts. Good news is my billet 26 is a plug and play with your exhaust/header if it sucks!

Which is good news!!! HAHA I am honestly thinking that it will ramp up nicely at first, but on the top end I don't think that small hot side is going to keep up that well. SOOO We shall see here soon. All I really need is my Vems box, FPR w/ fuel line, and AWIC bilge pump, then she will be ready to go!

Dude, I gotta make the monies to pay for the habbit!

[loxxrider]

That MKIII must be pretty fun. I can excuse your "distraction" for a 1jz. They sound wonderful

[Audilard]

Ben, we need to put you on a deadline. You've slacked off!!

[85oceanic]

I can attest to that Chris, it is a hoot to drive!

Darin, January .... I swear man!

[40v4kq]

Stop swearing and post a video already! LOL.
