That's sick. The suspensions on those vehicles must take a beating driving around NY?

Glad to see you logged in & posting. You got pics that make people say "wow" - like me. Thanks for sharing!!

Yea. The cars are not as low as I would like but it's NYC. The roads are horrible, and can barely get in and out of my own driveway sometimes. They are riding on d2 coilovers. They ride great! 36 way adjustable damping and ride height. I got a few more pics comming. I haven't been on photo bucket much, so I'll update them later

i just cut the firewall to use the cowl vents for breathing. its an amazing mod, you can feel so much hot air escaping the bay

Very clever!

i just need to frame it up and mesh in the middle for that clean look. was a bit hesitant to do it but im so glad i did. im running a/c in the truck for the first time this summer, and the temps would get pretty high when idling in traffic. was ready to make a vent in the hood, but wanted to try this first. was even thinking of making little braces for them, but dont think its really needed.

now the 2jz...

I'm amazed the 2JZ fit. Did you have to cut or mod anything to get it to fit?

The cowl mod would be the mod to do with a 4D56 and a top mount intercooler.
