Right on!! I was surely set on going NA-T, but now I am leaning towards the 1JZ swap...for its ease, and low cost! I can promise you that lots of us will really appreciate you taking lots of pics and documenting the swap

Turboing a car is easier than pulling a motor. But Mteele, have fun.

I am in Gainesville now, but I will be in Palm Beach in less than 2 weeks for my summer break.
Yeah, its really hard to beat the simplicity of the 1JZ swap. I have a couple of issues to address because people havent posted how they did it, so they get to look forward to me hounding them for the info

Very good point
I want to see the wiring harness, I've heard conflicting ways of doing it.And hopefully when you guys get here to town to help, I'll already have my car gutted on the inside to make stuff easier to do in there, and hopefully I can start ripping **** out of the engine bay too. but that means i wont have transportation till you guys get here, lol

I'll be getting beer and pizza, no worries We need to coordinate how all you guys are comming up. Chino is going to bring his car, but somone else probably needs to drive up so there is room for tools, air comp, etc. If you can get a truck or whatever, you can bring back your new engine too
And I'll be getting started on **** Wed. as much as posible. Trips to the auto store, stripping down my car, getting an engine hoist.
