if i were to do it over, i'd weld on the stock rear spring perches (or perches for adjustable sleeves) and do spring and shock. they're alright, but i'm gonna have to reinforce my rear shock towers.

i have tacoma turbo stuff, if you're in need! i had a 2rz on boost a few years ago.

sorry that your "shop" is screwing you over.

really, like what? love the rz motors

currently building intake manifold as well, and new charge piping, but in need of better exhaust manifold and new internals. Thought at one point i was gonna throw the 2rz in the 82 liftback..

what trans did you run behind the 2rz? w series can't cut it

oh, very nice work! i have a paradise fuel rail, a T3/T4 from KORacing, and a manifold (i think it's a Paradise, i don't remember). I never had enough tire to hook up and damage the W. i did have to put a clutch in it though.

well, today is just small stuff, stripping the stock wiring harness, and i decided to play around with mounting options for the heat exchanger. i'm not sure i like it where it sits, but that's the beauty of starting from scratch.. there are no rules
