Hey guys. Wondering if anyone would have a input here. But which year models didnt have the ecu immobilizer? Or. Did someone figure out a bypass?

Also to Turtle.....how much are you adapter plates for ka and mounts going for. Also curious on your processing times.

VVTI motors had the ecu immobilizer. So get a sub 1990-1996 motor and you'll be good

Any 1uz motor from 98 and up are the vvti motor and all of them have immobilizer. I'm in the process of dealing with immobilizer I'll update once I get it finished.

I guess you need to modify some shit with the starter to make it fit the flywheel right?
Also you need the stock spacer for the flywheel? I have like 2 spacers, is there a size difference?

I wouldn't expect your order anytime soon. I had to open up a paypal claim to get my items in a decent time frame the last time I dealt with him.

I haven't made any noise on here in a while, so I'll provide an update:

I got my car running two weeks ago! Runs like a champ now, I have been spending my time buttoning up the wiring/interior and beating the shit out of it whenever I get a chance. I haven't even taken any video or pics of it since it's been running correctly, but I will have something up this weekend I promise.

I won't go into the long-winded story of how I figured out what was wrong, but I will say that the igniters need to be grounded VERY well or else weird intermittent bad things happen

The car sounds nuts, it's crazy, it's loud, it's deafening (seriously, it's pretty deafening). Definitely slower than my Z, but since it's attacking all your senses, it seems faster.

Brett is a very standup guy. One of the nicest dudes in drifting. The adapter stuff is just something he does on the side and it kinda blew up faster then he was expecting. So don't worry about getting screwed over. It's just like anything sometimes you gotta just be a pain in the ass to get things quicker.

Where's the video jerk face?

So I was taking out my PCV and it was stuck in the grommet (literally was able to start picking the motor up while pulling on it) Finally got it out and the grommet broke a little and some pieces fell in the valve cover.

Soooo yeah, waiting on a valve cover seal and new grommet. Then I gotta actually wire it up, have my trans xmember modified then I can start doing loud noise stuff.

Sooo.... Would anyone here be interested doing a group buy for H-beam rods? Normal price I believe is $650 and I think we can get it down to $450 maybe. I'll get more details once I get them.

My understanding is that the stock rods are good to like 600-700 hp?

Mine will be supercharged with a v2 on a fish bracket with an aem fic 8 and some 440cc 7mgte injectors. All the parts are in order, I just need to do the install, but I've been too busy working on my sr hachi.
