to be honest, myself and a few people couldve told you that from the start, it wasnt the best design. i hope you have upgraded it and reinforced the floor a bit more. well done again for doing it. wish i could do the same

I think i fell in love. Is this the first 2JZ in a Galant?
Will twin turbo be in the future plans?

This build is unbelievable. That rebuild had to cost a lot of $. Keep the progress coming!

After you think it can't get any better, he takes it out to make it even faster. WOW
Are you keeping the engine bay red?
