sick man. good to see some home engineering still goes on out there. everyone seems to build a car by writing up a big shopping list these days. congrats ps nice to see you got peter brock to sign the rocker cover real nice touch haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Finally!!! If you come across a sh1tty looking Supra (old model) I wouldn't run it. I've seen the engine bay (customer) and it's a weapon. Looks like a total dogs breakfast on the outside though. You have been warned!

haha thats the AAS writing on it havent got it off yet yeah i cant wait to get it going and run it 1st stage is all dead stock head,cams, inlet manifold and bottomend but a cheap manifold, gate and a masterpower T70 next setup will b a built manifold, full on head work, my cams installed wit springs and retainers and posibly a plenum which will be prob 2months or so later hows about u take the 2nd lane then grant n ill run a number next to u yeah ive finaly done somethin thanks to pigsy he kept at me bout doin it, it wouldnt b in the calais if it wasnt for him haha n thanks for the tip on the supra ill giv u a ring in the next couple weeks to glenn bout buffin me car up the shop that done the pipework and exhaust was Marlew Performance i wasnt goin to put pics up but a fair few of u knew and just to shut the rest of u up, i decided to post them up

also would love to hear how much people spend on rbs to get them to reliably do 700rwhp

I remember seeing the crank come out of a certain really cold supra which had a stock bottom end. Bearings were hammered. If these pics were supposed to impress me they didn't for all the build up there was around it. Did you even clean the engine bay before putting the new motor in?

well done troy ..... I like it .... its all reversed around like a mirror image and looks deadly ...

tempest thats a fairly rude response for a moderator dont you think ? hes here talking about his car So what .....? Whats so dam wrong with being excited ?

thats right troy, I'm laughing.... along with quite a few others by the sounds of it...

haha yeah im going to clean the engine bay when welding ect has to be done in there for engine mounts ect and when the motor had to come in an out a few times.... the motor has to come out again, then it will be cleaned up you can laugh jay i know i will be once its running.... the limit of a 2J power wise is 840rwhp on matts dyno, thats when the rods break and thats spinning to 8500 the motor was perfect up2 820 then they went more n rods let go what do u expect wit a STANDARD forged bottomend no motor is indestructible, no matter how much money u throw at it but u didnt answer the question i can gurantee that your rods n pistons alone would have cost more than me buying a 2J and fitting it to a vl

i build my motors to last. works out cheaper that way in the end . My old rb30short motor is still going strong in a 10 sec vl in Melb totally untouched from what I built it 5 years ago. I started builing my car 2 years ago when you first crapped on about doing a rb26/30 or a 25/30. Since then ive worked on a $250 per week budget to build the car taking no shortcuts. All you need is patience . Better to have it done properly then rushing to get it done to prove a point. Just because one motor make a certain power standard doesnt mean its the same for all of them. Maybye that motor was on its way out before they put more boost in it. Did they pull the motor down at 820rwhp and check it all. How did they know it was perfect?

so that means that even tho Goran made huge power, doesnt mean you will?? i know of a hell of alot of std 2J motors that hav reliably punched out well ova 600rwhp and alot of them where completely stock, mine wont be my cams and head work will/has cost me more than the motor itself i know every motor is different, that is y im not aiming for 800rwhp as i want it reliable i just want good power thats enuf to have fun on the street/strip

I don't .......not worth it . rather sit back with everyone else and enjoy the circus.

haha and all u guys posting makes it even more enjoyable for me cant wait to hit the strip!!

You have absolutely no idea what 600rwhp is. Dyno and HP figures these days are such bull**** inflated pieces of crap that has fallen out of some 'guru's'' ass. What the hell do you want 400rwhp for in a car that looks like it won't even put down 150 no matter what tyres are on it?

Hey troy, looking good... i didn't want to post in this thread, incase it gave anybody ideas! looks awesome!

haha u really crack me up haha callin me a fu<kstick haha the car isnt even finished u fu<kin moron!! as if im goin to try n race this car when it sits taht fu<kin low fu<kin retard!! its gettin raised, different springs and shocks blah blah yeah 600rwhp is ova 590 and less than 700... they are figures from PITS dyno from PAUL GOMEZ do u even know who he is??
