super-hachi 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 I told you crazy changes were coming... my designated driver thought it would make a better hatchback i guess... sorry for the crappy pic quality.. cell phone camera A couple buddies bought me a new shell the next day and the work began.. new car had a destroyed dash and harness was torn out.. so i took a few pieces from the parts car done swapping noticed it was banged up a bit in the front and ghetto straightened.. and the parts car is totally straight in the front so......... i cut it out.. and transfered it from the straight car. then deciced to drift it this year so i figured bead welding towers and stitching the whole bay was in order after that we slightly tubbed the wells to fit bigger wheels with more angle and welded up a bunch of holes, removed battery tray and covered a bunch of weld for a cleaner look painted teal with a cool clearcoat. new wheels ordered, 5mt swapp, suspension ordered, hydro e-brake in works now, bride seat installed, baller shift knob arrived, paint coming soon, aero possible aswell is that enough for me to have said "stay tuned for crazy changes".... ya i think so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guy Smiley 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 Yay! 2JZ buddy. I'm starting to have more 2JZ friends now. Bang for buck over 1jz. Someday people will get it, then they will be expensive and we will be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChriSOL 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2011 Fuck man. I paid well under a grand for my 1JZ motorset. If you can find me a 2jz with everything for that I'd gladly trade up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guy Smiley 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2011 Point is.... I paid $1700 shipped for my motor. I know people find 1jz for cheaper than 2JZ MOST of the time, but I would gladly pay a little bit more for what I have. Nice car, get it done and have fun. Take a cab from now on!
