So here is my pride and joy that i have had for almost 2yrs now
Bought the car with the 2jz convertion (so i take no credit for that)
was unregisted when i bought it, took it home stripped it and got it ready for paint (it was like MG RED.... pretty vial)
next few weekends was spent rubbing back and getting it in primer..
after getting it back from the *CREATIVE BODYWORKS*
spent the next few weekends putting it all back together along with coilovers
fixed up all the wiring under the dash and through out the car
Changed interior to Type X
Re-Trimmed the roof in black suade along with replacing carpet
Battery in boot with Optima Yellow top
i've hidden the SAFC behind glove box (Gadjets piss me off)
wired up R32 clustor (for VSS issues, now cable driven)


could keep rambling on about the blood sweat and tears but you get the idea.

Like to thank Alan and Miles from AM AUTO for being such legends helping me with the project.

anyways let us know what you think.
Thanks
Damian.

    Argh Simon's old car, had this about 3-4years ago, very quick but hard to handle with the brass button clutch it had. Used to be red so obviously had a paint job.
    It could only do a 12.28 quarter with road tyres due to tramping, needed coilovers in the rear and semi slicks for a good time.
    At the time it was producing 428Kw on a safeish tune but had more potential with an upgraded fuel system.
    Massive problems with overheating, had to drive around with the heater on so the car wouldn't over heat, but we sorted that out.
    Good to see it is still around and not wrapped around a pole. Also glad to see MR. SPARKLE survived on the engine cover.

    Yes people the battery is now in a box.. these were pictures from when i was doing interior exchange

    J-Train

    I have upgraded fuel pump to 044 (intank)
    Subaru fans instead of those anus plastic thermo's(runs off a temp switch now not the AUTO button)
    Removed the gay chocks from bonnet

    When i bought it, it had a Mircotech in it with 800cc injectors but have since removed both and put factory computer with SAFC in and U.S spec 550cc

    also thanks for those pictures :( im glad i changed the colour

    the guy i bought it off was a kiwi can't rememeber name but looked like he hadn't looked after the car that well.
