Default My 97 RSP Soarer

Hello again everyone. You may or may not remember me but I have been here a long time! Bought my first Soarer (a V8) around 4 years ago. Sold that last year and bought a 1997 VVTi JZZ30 Soarer:

The 1JZ VVTi got bottom end knock due to oil pump issues so I swapped in one of these with an R154:

The engine is currently stock and will remain stock for a while as I am saving for a month long holiday to the US!

Another reason I dont want to spend money on my Soarer is because of this ****er:
