Default Looking for more ohmmp from the N/A 2JZ

I really would't want to do an engine swap for now and I really would like to know if someone has put cams on their n/a 2J... also interested in headders but it seems no one makes ***... i painted my car today and it looks AWESOME (1C0 with UCA31 accents and cleared with Hot Hues clear [Dupont 7500]) so now I'm moving to at least improve the acceleration over stock wihtout breaking my wallet. Any suggestions?

If you are looking for headers, XERD makes them though i dunno how it is to get them. I hear they aren't the best in terms of customer service. Though you may run into one on ebay once and awhile. I really don;t think there is much to do in terms of N/A. It's not worth the money in my opinion. Just going to save it up for the TURBO

I believe that the header for the IS300 fits but the mid pipe doesn't.....but I think that would give a few more options in that respect....

I just posted a thread about the aftermarket for our cars, or should I say the LACKTHEROF...It also seems as though the people that know what they are talkin about no longer post here, so.....I'm afraid you're in the same boat as my, and it's up that one creek.....but, here's the link to my post, there's a few helpful links....

if that's the case, i'll just save my pennies for a JZX100 front clip to swap the 1J to my car... that'll be a long wait though... (=,[

From what I understand from searching....the 1JZ swap is a real pain in the *** when it comes to wiring....supposedly it's really difficult to get the stuff inside the cabin to work....but don't take my word for it.

i won't. =,] I done research this issue and it's not as bad as wiring my hachi with a megasquirt. If I get a clip, I also get the dash harness, which I can just retrofit it to make it work with the stock GS300... that's why is better to have a FULL front clip than just a motor set. =,]
