Wink Might be going 1jz soon....

I am really leaning towards going 1j. I am more than likely gonna do it. I just put my magnaflows on and i will have to sell them now so i can get the same mufflers but with a 3" inlet?! I really do not want to ship so i am throwing out this idea for the locals first!! So if someone is planning on doing exhaust sometime i might be able to help you out. I will need it on my car for now or i can just put my stock exhaust back on?! It comes with the (2) magnaflows a "X" pipe and all NEW piping!! It is brand new....they just barley got broken in so they sound awesome now!! So i am asking $400 and i am pretty firm on that right now. Or if someone can get me the (2) 3" ones and some cash?! I will get pics up of the exhaust on ,y car as soon as i can!! Let me know. Thanks, Dan.

Hey Dan,

Why not just go NA-T? 3.0 vs 2.5? Unless your motor is on it's last leg. Just a thought.

I would but i have a SC400 with the V-8?! So seeing that Tim and SP are gonna start doing alot of 1jz stuff that i might as well do a 1j with a big upgraded single. I was thinking about doing a 2j TT motor swap but for one you are the fastest and really close to me and there are really not to many big singled 1jz around. And seeing it will be all SP products it will damn fast. So then midwest will have you witht he quickest 2jz TT SC300 and me with a 1jz big singe SC400!! Plus the 2jz swap with a auto is $1k more than a 1jz. So that gives me that much extar cash to spend on upgrades. At one point i was thinking about trading my 400 for a 300 but mine is FULLY loaded with heated seats and from my search there are more 400's with heated seats then 300's?! So maybe when i am done we can get a photo shoot together?!?! And in the future i was thinking about changing the 1j bottom end to a 2j bottom end and doing the 1.5jz.

That thing messed up my car.....the last thing i want is that thing near it again!! I am surprised i went back to see if it was dead!!! Oh well though. Now i can do some body mods/upgrades. And just go with some nitrous this year and stall and some other stuff!! I have to sell alot of my crap now yo get the SC fixed though. Like my BIG 4000 watt system and Alpine TME-M770 screen and DVD player!! Now anybody looking??
