Default 1jz swap complete! *56k*
Well, I've been the owner of my '88 supra n/a clunker for about 3-4 years now and finally she has some real power. Got a 1jz/5speed clip a few months ago and got it dropped in. Picked it up from the mechanic this weekend. Went from a n/a automatic to the 1jz 5speed twinturbo and all i can say is HOLY CRAP! Anyways enough of me talking, here's the pics:

Here's what she looked like a few months ago:



Rear shot:



The 7mge engine bay (ew..):




And here's just a pic of me takin the clip for a little spin when she arrived *ahem*:



Finally it goes from this:



Into this:



Front view:



And the rear view with the sexy tanabe HM exhaust:



Mods done to the car include:

1jz/r154 (duh)
3" ypipe/dp
Some 3" performance cat
Tanabe Hyper Medallion catback
Rotora drilled/slotted rotors + performance pads
Tein Flex Coilovers + EDFC control unit (you can see she's riding quite a bit lower)
Greddy Profec B SpecII boost controller

Still trying to get used to the 5speed (first manual car -_-) but she's is a blast to drive now. The spool of the turbos (which is unmistakeably audible within the cabin) hasnt failed yet to make me giggle like a retard. Despite the rediculously huge muffler, the car is really quiet at idle and low speeds, but under wot, it has a nice roar to it (sorta like the g35/350z but quite a bit louder).

Workin on getting some vids...Enjoy!
