MN 2JZ-GTE/R154 Swap
#227
One Issue that I ran into while tracking a GS, You need more caster, depending on your wheel size and tire size. I run a 245/40/18 on a 9.5 rim, the tire rubs on the back of the fender well.
#228
Thats kind of off topic but as far as I know, the caster is not adjustable on this car because its a double wishbone suspension. Do you have some sort of custom control arms that adjust the suspension mounting points?
#229
There are two companies that I know of, one figs sells, its a Bushing that changes caster by a little bit. The other Is Ikeya formula JZS161 Roll Center Adjuster Pillow Lower Arm kit, from the picture it has adjustable caster arm. By how much, i don't know. I placed an order for it. I also saw that orido ran the same thing on his Drift Aristo.

It’s not dead. Just life getting in the way and delaying things. I have been adding updates of any on my Instagram for which in on my signature. The car was supposed to make it to the fabrication shop before making a trip to the body shop after fabrication work. November was the magic month for this fabrication to start.
Now March is the month, this sadly puts my timeline further down. Something like September for when it’s all unveiled. Not sure if you all saw the SerialNine sponsored GS300 out in TAS2018. Sick ride, I am getting impatient which only happens when I see the finished project like the Yellow GS300 our in TAS2018.
So in short, the build is still ongoing. It has been delayed but it is not dead. www.instagram.com/elleongs is my Instagram which is in my signature.

Progress update.
Car has missed some deadlines to get to the shop to get some work done. It’s still at the shop touching and fabrication new things. Just wanted to share were things are at the moment. We appreciate your support and also for following this.
We got some T-Shirts and Hoodies at our site:

So I was asked about the provided update on my car with my Instagram. I forgot to add all of the people that would like to hear. Folks inquired about the cost of a front bash bar. Pricing was done and shared, it’s above my Instagram personal and business Instagram accounts.

As you can imagine, I am still working on the car, getting things done with suspension, engine, and trying to get it running before it goes to body and paint. Just sharing some images of some of the pics I have taken since getting back from the Fab Shop. It will need to go back at least 2-3 more times. I am also getting the engine ready as I said. So, this update has if you will some random pics but they all show the progress and where the car is now.Some items that I have for sale:After getting the car back from Patience Metal Fab[img][/img]

I guess is time to get back to updating this here since I have been off it for so long. The year I decide its time to get this car on the road we get hit with this pandemic. So I am documenting more of my work through my YouTube page and will renew adding pictures here even though I am adding more videos these days. Hope that everyone else is able to devote more time in to their projects but more importantly their love ones.
