because they feel its more reliable .. its kinda like the other guy in FL who is doing the RB26 swap.. which to me makes no sense either.. going from a 3.5L to a 2.6L

And about the track ill run aj at the track once i learn how to drive the car but you still dont get it this car is not being built for 1/4 is being built for highway. If i wanted a 1/4 mile swap i would have put in a terminator engine on turbo with an auto trans and a solid rear. But thats not what i wanted out of the car. I dont care how quick the car is i just care about the top end it AJ's car can beat me all day at the 1/4. rolling is where i care.

I see, I see. High roll races arent easy to come by around here though, but good luck. You definitly picked the right set up if you're looking for highway queen. 2jz with that turbo plus 35 psi will do you good up top, haha.

I will post pics / dyno / run vids when we are completely finished. Thanks for following the build up to everyone that enjoyed it and I promise a nice compilation of the above !

Doesn’t really worry me that much someone will always want to run. And yea the thread has gotten kinda dumb with all he arguing. Final product hopefully will come out this weekend then we shall see what it really does.

Enjoy. I will work on some more compilations as soon as I have some free time next week. Still need to work with some timing / ignition issues.

I'll leave that to the owner to tell. I think we are going to hold off on numbers till next week when we do some tweaks and address some minor issues.

Yea they were ok but we r missing ignition upgrade to see the numbers we r looking for. Martin is still doing some research on tunning it and see what else is needed other then ignition. Only thing that is stopping him now is time his been busy lately maybe by the end of this month or mid of the next month the final product should come out. To many tlittle things have gotten in the way. But **** happens when you do crazy **** like this.
