Looking good Nelson.

Looks like you could fit 2 of them in there compared to the E30 engine bay!!

Oh yes. If there was any other motor I would run in my car it would be a JZ

I agree, awesome how your doing video logs wish I had done so now, slack with even keeping up with pics.

Do you think you would eventually goto manual?

Cant wait to see it running

Manual.... tough call... the auto is good for 500hp... I will only look to run 350 or so on 12psi... this is my daily driver so i think Auto will stay to be honest.

If i were going to race it or something i would look for a manual... but no I have no plans to do it...

will post up another video soon as poss

Yea fair enough man. Less temptation to do certain things with a clutch also right?
