Default What bodykit is this?

1. Is this a Type T wide body kit?


2. How difficult would it be to put a 2JZ in the S?

I realized I miss the hell out of my S, so I am purchasing another one in May or June.
(Don't give me crap for it lol I guess I will have to deal with the amount of room the car has).


3. I am looking for a nice set of wheels for the S this summer, anything y'all can recommend?

I looked up J's Corporation Circuit exhaust and I liked the sound of it, what are y'all opinion? I really like the dual exhausts, but quite a good amount of people are suggesting I switch to single.

Thanks. I will get the kit as well as the spoon hardtop. Wheels I am looking at spending 400-450 wheel.

I never checked into the cost on the 2JZ swap, but I figured it would end up costing too much.

As far as the motor I probably won't be spending too much money on it. Few upgrades here, and there,but I doubt Ill do anything major at the moment.

Exterior Color: Red
Wheels: Red or Black, or Red/Black

I'd like to get it painted similar to the color of this NSX.

Why put in a 2JZ when you can boost the F20C/F22C and get excellent power and reliability for a moderate amount of money without killing your resale?

I don't actually want to do it, I was just curious about doing something that is rare/unique, or hard to come by.

The other things he is doing will kill his resale worse IMHO (body kit and color change).

I'm not sure what a 2JZ runs for, but to get "excellent" reliability with FI, you'd have to drop at least $6k into the motor. I'm guessing a swapped 2JZ will be less than that. If not, it should be close, and then you end up w/a better base for FI. If you're going to spend $6k then why not spend $10k and get a fully modded 2JZ?

No I won't, I plan on getting 17" or 18" tops. I liked the 17" ssr's I had so I will probably stay with the same size wheels.

i think people have been paying ~15k for complete 2jz swaps

there's a company in FL that does the swaps, they replace the whole drive train assembly, wiring, and build the internals to make atleast 5-600 hp.
