Non-rotary-owning noob in the house. 2JZ content inside...
Yo, I'm Bryan.
I was at the Rolex Series Grand Am race this weekend at New Jersey Motorsports Park and briefly talked to some FD guys who recommended I check out this site, so here I am.
They had a pretty nice lineup of cars out there, I enjoyed it... if any of the guys from the race see this then speak up! Always looking to meet locals who own nice cars, and I love me some RX-7s.
So, moving along... I live outside of Philly and I own a bugeye WRX with a complete STi swap and a single turbo 6 speed Supra. Both have a lot of work done but the Subie is the understated one, more sleeper-ish, and well, the Supra isn't.
The Subie was my project for a long time, most of what I know about cars I learned from experience on that car. Its had about 5 of everything on it, haha... but I fine tuned things until I was 100% happy, and now I pretty much am. It has a full 07 STi swap in it which I did at least a couple years ago... engine, trans, drivetrain, brembos, wiring, ecu, interior, dash... and so on. 100% complete... its basically an 07 STi with bugeye headlights, except I did it the lonnnnng way, haha. Went with a FP Green turbo, EWG, 750cc injectors, APS FMIC, Perrin EL Headers, etc. etc.
here's a pic of 2 of my friends during the swap...

and here's a shot of the car on e-towns road course
I can indulge you with plenty more photos but I'll go look to see if there's a member gallery first, and if there isn't then I'll keep you waiting a little bit anyway
.
The Supra is the new toy... fell in my lap a couple years back as a project and my intentions were to keep it simple... but my goals and expectations continually rose with the car and now its much different than I originally planned. Now it has the engine bay painted, fuse box and batter relocated and wires tucked, 67mm turbo, full fuel system, full 4" exhaust, Greddy 4 row FMIC, Titan Intake Manifold, etc.
I can copy over complete lists for both cars, again if this is the right place to post it all.
So, thats it. I'm not a chick so my best shot at getting any responses here is with some pretty photos... hopefully it works!
