I would say get this one its bad *** but I only see 6 bolts. Our flywheel is 8 bolts so call first

I went with a 14lb flywheel because I didnt want a super light one but if I would have seen this one I would have grabbed it. & I dont know why the hell they are so cheap right now, they are normally at least $300 so I would jump on it

just did some research on that flywheel option. That is for the 7mgte motor and it is 6 bolt pattern. Found a couple forums about it and it would need some machining done to it to get it to fit and would overall weaken the flywheel. Atleast i know what to look for now found like 2 forums on people putting the w55 or w58 tranny onto the 2jzgte.

Here's how it currently looks after building the motor. FYI, this is still a VVTI GE motor, except I did a full VVTI delete, so now it appears to be a GTE head with the valve covers/coil cover but with the tell tale driver's side water neck of the GE heads. Of course it wouldn't be complete without our FSMoto FFIM and ProSeries fuel rail. Excuse the clutter of the bay, still gotta clean it up some. Any questions you guys can email me. Dan@fsmoto.net

That swap looks great, so basically its a Built OEM 2JZGE turbo'ed with a greddy style intake manifold and VVTi delete? How much would you charge to do something like this? I'm assuming you put a Supra Trans in it?

Why on earth would you have a MAF on there Dan? Im thinking you converted to MAP (or at least I hope you did) but it looks like at some point you ran MAF? Was there any particular reason for this?

That is our FFIM manifold kit for the GE motors. The motor is essentially the stock motor built. Head has a HEADGAMES valve job on it which is more than just touching the seats, that service alone pics up 30cfm on the intake and 40 cfm on the exhaust! Contact Dave over there for that work, it's ****
The head is running HKS 272 cams. The intake cam has to be put in a lathe and cut down to make it fit into the #1 cam journal due to it's length. We then used a non-vvti/gte cam cap on the first journal. It's very VERY important to check for clearance since caps are married to it's heads from the factory and mixing them could result in failure due to each head being different with the align bore/hone of the cam journals. We spec'd mine out with that new cap and it gave us the proper oil clearance and was aligned well where it bolts down. Been running a few thousand miles now with no issues.
If you are interested in having any work done like this, or our intake kit you can email me. dan@fsmoto.net

Good eye 403! Yeah at one point the MAF was being used and I never got around to making a new intake pipe for the turbo, or cutting the flange off and filling the hole and smoothing it back out. My car is running an AEM EMS, so it is now MAP based.
