motors gone... no usable parts... only part worth reusing is the irons..... and one rotor... lol... even the eshaft isnt up to spec. it is for a quick rebuild... but still not perfect

I don't think its only the weight balance you have to worry about with a 2jz. There is also the problem of center of gravity which I think would be higher in a 2jz. Also, in cars light as ours, 250 lbs is a good amount. Almost 10% more weight. I'd feel pretty confident you would feel that extra heft even on the street and especially on bear mountain.

No it's not Andy. We have "West Point" which I prefer. That's where the "turkey" video was birthed.

well its all tied together, 250 lbs on the front end does change center of gravity which is basically altering the weight balance to make the front end a pivot point instead of the center

it was a hypothetical number, and i wasnt referring to a 2j anyways


btw does anyone actually work on their own cars and is in need of a good impact gun? im selling mine if anyones interested

air, its a snap on mg725 1/2 inch impact gun

its the monster that pulled off ur flywheel nut like it was finger tight if u remember O,

brand new it goes for 400 or something like that, i just had it rebuilt by snap on, im sellin it for 200

btw omar if u want an electric one i can get you one, just not any special discounts cuz snap-on dont play like that lol, of course jay could too so idk lol just sayen

i have their 3/8ths one and their 1/2 inch one, both are good guns, i love the 3/8ths one i use it for everything and anything, the 1/2 one i usually just use mostly for wheels when i dont have a compressor, good for track days
