Suspension/chassis? I'm putting coilovers on it, thats it. Factory adjustable arms, fast steering rack from factory, factory 4 pot disc brakes... Its a ****ing race car from factory.
I will be modifying the knuckles to get some more steering angle since this ***** is so long but other than that, nothing.

I got the motor sitting right after we made this motor mount bracket.
Decided stock twins are for losers, and picked up this bad boy. The turbo is a rebuilt HY35, 75 miles on it, its super tight. No shaft play what so ever.
Ground off that homo internal wastegate bracket on the compressor housing.
Took it all apart to get the exhaust housing ceramic coated. It’s only a 0.63 hotside, should spool super quick.
Ordered a T3 manifold from XSP, this nonsense showed up. Its not the camera, the manifold is blue, like smurf blue.
I had that ceramic coated too.
Look, much better now.
Turbo fits really well, lots of room to make a downpipe and dump pipe.
Finished the lower intercooler piping, it’s all welded up now, just need to mock up the upper half.
Decided to make a dump pipe, got some 1 7/8” stainless tubing from a buddy that was for a Suburu header. Cut that stuff up.

It’s all mocked now, it looks so sweet.
****ing party!
It’s getting closer.
Put the clutch on.
Put the tranny on.
Making the shifter extension.
Just for fun (intercooler piping “downpipe” lol)
Just chillin at the shop. JDM Aristo on CCW’s, 1JZ SC (single this week) and my buddy’s S14.
