Motor Swap to LS or 2jz.

After more research and weighing in the cost of it all, I'll be able to finally make a decision.

Had a blast at the autocross. Fastest run was my 3rd run in the morning session at 38.336 seconds.

Hey, I never got a chance to ask you, but how do you have your suspension set up?

I have Race Comp Engineering Tarmac II coilovers with 500 lbf/in springs front and rear. Everything else suspension wise is stock. I am still dialing the suspension settings in at this point. Does that answer your question?
