well hopeing to have it ready for JAE, but im having a few problems with the fitment at the moment, nothing to complicated though, just more of a pain

need to purchase an Aristo 2 part sump and a few other bits, just to get it so the thing will sit in the hole properly

Wow, that is a bit of a setback, right?
Hope all goes well and it will be on the road in time. Don't forget to come trough Holland on the way back.

UPDATE

Well, this week saw the fitting of the new HKS hipermax II coilovers, aswell as the full compliment of TRD chassis and mounting bushes, including the steering rack and differential mounting bushes this was one hell of a job, but it should hold this thing to the road like sheite to a blanket, this lot will compliment the toms chassis braces and trd sway bars that are fitted

the new aristo sump and engine mounts are on order, and ive traced all the wiring, and drawn out diagrams for the Autronic SM2 and worked this out with the cars loom..........

had a good bit of news from HKS europe, they would like me to do the conversion in one stage (700bhp) rather than the 2 stages i originally wanted to do because of costs

obviously the details i aint gonna post.but its looking favorable for me

that will mean that the engine will be totally stripped, and pretty much everything in the HKS book for the 2JZ-GTE will be getting fitted, along with a HKS 3.4 stroker kit: eek2:

will keep you all updated
