Yup, it's a GReddy not a FReddy. :D I'll be paying off that part for a few paychecks :(

Battery fits neatly under fuel evap cover. It's like Nissan new that the 521 would get a SR20 one day :eek:

I love this thread..

 

What are the more reputable JDM importers.. as far as SR's go?

 

I got my motorset through Dan as he would also warranty it along with all the fab work...

 

There's lots of places (i.e. eBay), but it's hard to say which shops would help you out if they sent you a bad swap...

Icehouse, where did you get yours?

 

heavy throttle is a very good online source. A friend of mine got his from them, somehow he was missing something from the kit, heavythrottle over night shipped him the part. I got my sr's from a local shop that basically calls all the local importers.

I don't like ebay most the time.... there is way to much crap on there....

Love the pictures, cant wait to go for a ride in that thing! It was great meeting you and Brandon the other night, cant wait to get together again. Send me a picture of your bench seat if you can so we can work something out with the seats in Lisa's 521. Hope to hear back from you soon, keep up the updates.

Yep, I have an FJ20 in my Wagon and in my 2 door 510. The Wagon is carbed and the 2 door is injected and turbo charged. I'd love to answer any questions you might have about the FJ. Would love to help if I could.

It was good meeting you and Lisa! She has a really clean 521. SR20DET is next, right? :D

 

Definately rides for everybody! I will send you pics of the bench seat ASAP. Better yet, swing by my house. I'll call you tomorrow...

Dan called me today and asked, "You do burnouts in this truck?"

I said, "Yeah, I've tried, but the I couldn't get enough power out of motor to do any."

He replied, "You won't have that problem now."

:D

 

 

They took it out for a test drive around the block. Said it's quick. So quick, Dan couldn't stop laughing maniacaly on the phone. :eek:

 

Need to go to a muffler shop to finish the exhaust (fumes in the cabin are too strong from the open downpipe; nearly knocked them out during the test drive) and it's coming home!
