someone help me out here. i have an r154 picked up yesterday, im going to get another on the 5th to send to marlin crawler for a build. now the question is this. i have the option to buy a 2000hp capable bottom end 2jz for a grand, legit shit carillo rods cpr bolt crazy supra fan boy shit. kid here thought he was tokyo drift and was going to put it into a 70 nova ungh... any how this thing has rad parts. but at that price i can buy a full 1j swap... so do i do the work and put this 2j together or get the swap and drive sooner than later???

ugh shiny keeps my head spinning... and a bulletproof bottom end sounds rad !!

Damn how much power are you wanting to run in this car? Built 2j bottom end.... LOL.

I'd like to see you driving sooner than later but I know that if you started putting together something with that 2j bottom end (1.5jz???) it would be insane... kind of cool too.

soooo bottom end 2j is done. just waiting for the head to come back from machine and figure out what cams i want to run... other than that chassis is going to collect dust till i can get a customers rock crawler jeep out of my shop....

side note i hate r154 trans so much. so on that bomb shell im going to run a tremec t56 magnum 6 speed box out of a 2009 dodge viper, doner car and motor shit is all on my instaham hollywood237. ok so the tremec for those of you who care bolt up via a sweet little adapter plate and presto chango i have a standard box that will hold up to 900hp and all the clutch kicks i can throw at and still shift gears like its supposed to... photo stolen from club lex. i just got the cad files today. water jet at work tom... thats all for now.... cant wait to get shit rolling....
