Originally posted by eXerGy View PostWhat can I say, I like the way those 962's look. Nice, without being to flashy. What do you want me to put it on, BBS RS's? Some played out, over priced shit? I mean, sorry if I'm rude, but you don't really have to have $3k wheels for it to be nice. XXR's are cheap, so if I mess up, I could replace them for cheap. What is it, $160 per wheel? And they don't look too shitty. At least I'm not aspiring to have Rotas.
Also, the 2jz has really reduced in price. It's less than either of the RB motors. I'm not doing a super expensive swap. If anything, I could flip this car, and maybe another, and put a 2jz in for around $4k total. The most difficult thing I will have to do is get the gauges to work.
Rant over.
And if you complete a 2J swap for $4k I'll give you another 4k to do it in my car.Last edited by Kielan; 07-06-2012, 07:59 PM.- Kielan (Key-lin)

UPDATE.
I had a coolant leak, and I fixed it.
Possible plans to sell it soon, Hoping to get around $2500, I've got an SR motor lined up, I think. Swap and flip a few to help fund the next build. Then, when I have way too little money, and way too much time, will I try to take on a 2jz.
I've been looking around for better wheels, too. Honestly, I just want a low offset, 5/6 spoke type wheel. Any suggestions are welcomed.

Cant wait to see more progress.
And yeah, I wasn't expecting anything more than stock for $4k.
