[jimGTS]

quite mental

[Johnny G]

Cheers Jim! The whole thing is a credit to Paul Woods.

Paul Woods? Not bad at all mate! He's the only one who'll ever touch my cars - and that includes the Supra, which is what I might start on next!

or challenge him with a viper v10

Lexus has been done before
Viper engine is too wide

That is incredible mate, I'm not the most technically minded but the workmanship looks fantastic, great read too.

Hope it all goes well

It's getting right on my boobs mate! There's 2000 more rpm to come from it and a lot more boost!!!

Realistically, it's going to be a few weeks at least. Maybe up to 2 months!

[marc GT Turbo]

i can understand that ! perfection takes time what will the engine rev up to safely under boost ? or is this still estimates ?

Well, the stock engine was only made for 5500rpm, being a truck engine - but I had the head massively worked on. Porting, cams, valves, shimless bucket conversion - so it's ok for 8000rpm now, but I'll take it to 7500rpm.

Then boost will be determined by whatever Ryan G from 2BarTuning thinks is safe.

Hi Johnny.

Great to see ya back in posetion of you car again! good to be back in an MR2 again?? haha.

Been a long time comming but what an awsome awsome final product. Loving the body work too. the little things too like the blended front wing into the skirt, love that!

Big credit to all. Job boxed... Nearly!

[BiGWiLlYsTyLe]

That car looks absolutely awesome!!

What Bhp are you expecting??

Not a clue!
It's all about the delivery for me, not the peak figure. Should be north of 500bhp though.

Awesome....

Hope you're keeping it out of the snow!

Cheers, Matt. Long road and all that - worth the wait, though! Looks better than a TRD kit IMO, so maybe that Neo's experience was a blessing in disguise, I've something much more unique and special - like those 10 a penny TRD's

Awesome....

Hope you're keeping it out of the snow!

It's nicely tucked up - next to the Supra, away from the nasty snow!

I saw this in the flesh when i was at woodsport during summer. MY GOD it's a beast! when johnny says the turbo's huge he means HUGE it looked bigger than my head!

Amazing built mate! you got any bhp figures yet? It'll be a monster at high boost.

It'll support larger turbos - anything that comes with a T4 flange really
