In 10 days I will have been without a car for exactly a year! Yup walking and catching rides everywhere! Blew my rotary back last march and decided to go with a 1j vvti and the burnout kit for my dd. havent yet decided if I want to go with the wide body or not.
Heres what we have so far... all that's left is a bit of wiring and to throw the tranny in! Still gotta work on the hood a crap ton to get it to fit... but shes finally looking good again! |
That looks sweet, but seriously? Get a DD ! lol.
|
this will be an amazing dd here in a week! Havent spent this much money just to buy another car lol!
|
is this still in Huntsville?
|
Up until 3 days ago! I came up last week and brought it down to Destin with me!

dude! same exact swap im doing and almost done also, although i have not tryed to start mine yet.. let me know how it goes. how much did the swap cost u so far for parts + laybor and everything? mines run me bout $5,500 (canadian) the driveshaft alone was 400 dollars though..retarded
cheers ps/oh and how does the hood fit ? i bought the same one too. LOL pps freaky my fds also red and my rotary blew up last feb, and ive been carless ever since also.hmm, must b a 1jz vvti thing. LOL |
Ive kinda went all out on mine... my motor was $4500 alone, vvti with 10k on it!! all in all it will be about 15 to 17k just for the swap, but then gotta add in the burnout kit, and paint and body work! ugh!!
I havent started mine up either, were finishing her up this weekend. Ill try and post some vids up when its done. |
