Finished the PS system.









To answer some of the questions:

- Wheels are 19x9+16 (5mm spacer makes it +11) 245/35/19 and 19x11-19 with 295/30/19 rubber.
- STi brembo calipers with Evo Rotors for brakes
- The 2JZ will own the RB25 in power capability any day. I wanted to do an RB26 but I came across this so I didn't want to pass it up. The motor and head is good for well over 1000hp so I think that will be plenty of power for my 240. The swap is alot of work. If I don't sell my RB then Im going to have to sell the 2JZ stuff.

After sitting on jack stands for almost a year. The car finally touches the ground.









The fronts are maxed out on ride height. I can't make them any lower without changing the springs. The rears are still G though. I'll see how it handles with it as is and play with it later. I'd like to come down another 15-20mm in front. I might add another degree of camber i the rear and try to tuck rim but after the suspension settles a bit we'll see if it rubs or not. Looks like i got plenty of room though.

So im at about 12-13 hrs of wiring and im still not done. Im redoing the entire engine harness with new loom, shrink wrap, re routing it, removing stuff, adding stuff etc...


Spent 7hrs straight doing this *****...






The 5hr injector harness...




I reversed the harness, so the main connector is at the back of the motor. Re-pinned it (6>1 5>2 4>3), added the new connectors for the ID 1000cc injectors, sized up and loomed.

I think I have successfully earned my bachelors degree in connector de-pinning.

dude that ****s gonna be so worth it though when you look in the engine bay and see that pretty wiring. Is that just heat shrink on the ends of those?

Yea, thats the idea. But the way its routed you can't even see much of the harness.

More wiring BS...

Knock sensor, and oil temp sensor harness...



Lower harness...


The factory oil temp, oil pressure, coolant temp, and fan sensors have been replaced by Apexi and aftermarket units for my DECS tach. It can monitor rpm, temp and pressure which will eliminate the need for more gauges.

how exactly do you re-wrap them? un-pin them from the connectors and run the wrap over them?
