ah, stop the teasing!!! 2-3 weeks your killing me man....I am very curious how this looks on blue and I really want to see how out blue looks with CF hood, I have been on the fence on a CF hood for a while. You could always send me a pm..LOL Good luck man and congrats. 
Can't wait to see the finished look! 
Hey, what shop did that engine swap and how much did it run? I'm debating if I should do the 2JZ-GTE VVTi swap or just do a NA-T conversion over the summer. How much of the stock functions do you lose? E-Shift, VSC, any CEL lights?

I did the swap myself. Do a search for posts by me and you will find all the info you need.

Man... that's some sick rims.. love that big fat lips.... Nice choice of engine 2JZ-GTE blue top..
JeffTsai: Go with the 2JZ-GTE twin turbo. if you gonna go to the hassel of engine swap do it proper. Don't dissappoint yourself with NA.. You'll love the sound and the torque especially when the second turbo kick in and you get that g-force pulling you to the seat..
