So today was a busy/fun day. I got there and installed the coilovers in the front the cars looks sick!!!! We mocked up the intercooler and bumper for fitment. Marc got out the saw and started cutting the frame stubbs off the front then we capped them with some some scrap metal and welded them on. The intercooler is quote thick and heavy so we fabbed some brackets to hold it on. Im going to boostlogic tomorrow to buy some 3" cast aluminum elbows so we can cut the end tanks of the intercooler and make them fit perfect. Pics follow

Wow. I always wanted to do a build like this on a 240. You can never go wrong with a 2jZ.
