Well, give me another month or two to finish my project (16 months and counting ...)and I'll take you for a spin in my 1JZ MA61. I think you'll like it. Razz

Then, I'll show you all the receipts. And then .... you might want to rethink your options. Oh, and if I where to do it over again - I'd definitely shell out the extra couple of grand for an Aristo (2JZGTE) front-cut. Whatever you pay for the motor is only going to be a tenth of what the whole project ends-up costing!

Have you thought about swapping to a 5MGE (2.8l twin-cam) or 6MGE (3.0l twin-cam) for starters (might be closer to your budget and time frame). Then, later, either of these can be turbo'd. Have a look at www.celicasupra.com for lots of yanks who have done this. Some drawbacks versus getting a factory turbo motor - but another viable option for you to consider.

And, yeh, Monroe shocks aren't the best. I'm running KYB's which aren't bad (but probably not as good as adjustable Koni's).

Anyway, where do you live? And whhat colour is your Supra? I've probably seen it around.


cheers,

Justin
