So after realizing I didn't have the body harness plugs for the ecu (16-pin/28-pin) I had to source them. All is well now

That one actually looks good. I don't see many play with (choose) the 1JVVT-i as much. This I can't wait to see.

Got a good deal on a Kenwood double din for the SC from the guys over at Invision Autohouse Modernizing the interior is a must

Just a quick peak in the garage. Still haven't been able to get around to having the swap done yet due to my work schedule. Should be done this month or next though for sure.

Oh and yeh...that's the Fujin I was one of the originals to rock the lip when it first released as well as Lance Calitri and Bobby Sanders. I managed to get my hands on another one after selling mines to Richard Aguiar. They are currently Out Of Stock and might not come back due to a "Broken Mold". Making progress

So I finally got the new OEM pulley and timing belt thanks to the team over at Driftmotion Now the 1J can be finished completely before going in the SC.
