i really want to...when is it again? im not going to be able to drive it till around late june due to a BS DUI...but if i can, i can trailer it there!

 

usually in may. import alliance is in july/august i believe

 

awesome!

 

nice man

 

a new pic...progress slowed down a little bit...running out of money! haha

but here is my new push to start and shifter!

 

Very clean nice choice

 

nice

 

never posted this one!

 

Two words, "heat wrap"

 

ok so far i havent really been reading the thread just looking at the pics..but how much have u spent so far? (EXCLUDING chroming parts and the extra cool stuff) im pretty much asking whats the bare minimum of doing a 2j swap

 

i need to go thru all my notes to get you a final price...ill work on that as soon as i have some time.

 

got the stainless braided oil lines, Greddy catch can, water lines, and Koyo radiator in!

 

Very nice.. Man it looks so bad *** in that bay

 

thanks! we are looking into maybe relocating the oil catch can tho...kinda looks cluttered where it is right now...thinking about maybe sticking it under the plastic cover with the brake resivour....but we kinda want the Greedy can to be seen...

anyone have any ideas??

 

Hide the can.

* if you would happen to want too look at more stuff Shifted offers or would like to see pics of other cars he has done, check out www.shiftedperformance.com!! *

 

Not bad price list. Add another 2-3k for Getrag 6spd if someone wanted that option.

 

i couldnt find the 6spd for less then 4g ...but over all i dont think this is too bad of a price compared to some of the guys on here are spending 6-7g on just wheels hahaha

 

Oh damn really ha? I found one few months back for $3,000. Definitely tough to find though.

Price is solid, considering stock block you can make 5-600whp all day. Once my car is all finished up, I am shooting to pick up a motor for the best price I can around Spring time. Going to build motor before I swap it. Take my time over the summer and if things go as planned, next winter I should drop it in and pull the VQ out.

 

Love the vids...
