Guest C7Ewan Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 (edited) 10mm lower and the addition of 25mm Spacers on the front. Could of gone a bit wider I think Ewan Edited March 22, 2016 by C7Ewan (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest C7Ewan Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Right guys bit of advice needed..... I had a fellow Supra owner round tonight who told me that my engine isnt a VVTi engine and i should take it out and put a vvti engine in then turbo it for more torque..... so this is the options i have in the car currently is a 2jz-ge NON vvti engine.... ... So do I.... Get a 2jz-ge vvti engine put that in my car and then turbo it or do i fit a 1jz GTE head to my 2jz non vvti Block and turbo it ? ( I already own a 1j gte head, wiring, ecu, map sensor, etc,etc) my goal is to have about 400BHP. As i think that will be enough power to start with... Im used to drifting with 150bhp in my lexus is200..... all thoughts and opinions are welcome Ewan As i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tariqd Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I read somewhere on this forum that the non VVTI engines are more desirable to go single turbo on as opposed to VVTI engines because more problems are encountered or whatever. I could be mistaken though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
