Got bored today and wanted to see how much the Treadstone TR10 filled the bumper opening. I'm 85% content with how much it filled, which I'll live with as it's was pretty cheap and scored a decent deal on it brand new. Keep in mind when it's actually mounted the bumper cover will be trimmed and the core will sit quite a bit lower and further inward, literally just wedged it into the cover to see how much of the length of the opening it took.

Overall satisfied with the quality of the core, cast end tanks are pretty nice.

Great thread bro! Watchin u from the NW, just picked up a frs, 2015. workin on suspension during the winter but not sure what to do about the motor.. I wanted to boost the stock but bro i think i just wanna slap a LS or 2JZ in this bitch and call it a day. Can't wait to see how your car turns out, if you do it for $8k its a no brainer for me

I have kinda compiled some last minute extras that were completely unnecessary so when I get the car completed I'll make a break down of the cost with both needed items and items that are more so "desires". Also will give my final total after selling off my old parts.

In fact, our builds don't even really show on google without specific terminology. It's all sponsor builds (E.kanoo, Tuerck, etc) |

What about all of the accessories? Power steering, A/C, heat? No need?

There are still other mods that are needed to support the power which I have not seen you mention. Mods such as...
axles rear-end driveshaft turbo manifold suspension upgrades a legit tune fuel system (pump, lines, fittings, filter, regulator, and so on) |

Rear end- assuming you mean rear diff, I'm more then confident with the oem rear diff holding above 500whp. Did plenty with altezza/is300 rear diffs throughout my life in Japan with numbers above what I'll be making and also have a spare altezza diff with a 1.5 way LSD. My single isn't very large and I doubt I'll see above 500whp ever. Driveshaft- custom DSS Aluminum or steel one piece, both stupid cheap. Turn around time after giving needed specs is less than 3 weeks. 1 piece steel shaft is still significantly lighter than oem chaser/supra/etc DS and I'm not very fond of lightening the driveline/powertrain in excess and I'm already lightening in other areas so I'll likely go the steel route due to my uncommon preferences. Exhaust manifold- have been given a manifold off my friends 2j 850+ whp s14. No clue what it is, but it'll be here sometime next week. Wastegate- running a turbosmart 38mm as I felt no need to go with a 44mm gate as I no longer plan to run <14 since I will no longer be using stock Jdm aristo twins. (Gate was given to me for a case of beer). I know some awesome people Suspension- custom front sway or no front sway at all(we'll figure this out when I redo my spring rates/valving/likely different coils in general). Currently on stance ss+ pros, white line rsb, adjustable rear control arms, bunch of random minor bits along with the stuff mentioned above. Tuning- running dual ecu setup with the 2jzgte ecu being commanded with an apexi piggyback which will be tuned by a personal friend from Speed and Sound STL(well known jz tuning shop). Will switch over to ProEFI or AEM standalone with time, just trying to get it on the road without initially to show it can be done for a lot less than what's being tossed out. Who knows, if the piggyback does well I'll keep running it as the oem vsc/TCS will remain fully functional. Fuel- fuel pump I'm still very undecided on what pump to run, but likely just the largest drop in tank I can find(frs fitment) unless we figure out a good way to run a large supra pump in tank, leaning towards making a bosch 044. As far as lines Chase Bays builds a frs to 1/2jz adaption kit in which will be ran with a Hybrid Racing FPR to stock aristo fuel rail and usdm 550's.
