contact paul at mazmart, hes putting together a diy and possibly a turn key swap but it will most likely cost 1/3 of your house

Any chance you could shed some light on what you did for a PPF delete?

I am part of the LS swap FB group and I think 4 of the guys so far have had their diff rotate and shred everything to pieces.

I think I have come up with a way to stop any rotation in it, but I am interested to see how you went about it, as your definitely putting enough power to the ground!

Anti Roll Bar Replacement

Hi everyone,
Its been a while i havent follow up the thread. Quite good thread posted :-)

Out of curiousity! Has anyone replaced their lower front anti roll bar with other bar, especially for those with 1JZ or 2JZ conversion?

For my case, the stock bar had to be dismantle as the bar was interfering with the conversion. Your experience is greatly appreciate. Thanks

Nice, but the TORQUE! I love my 8 but it can't get out of its own way. I have driven a number of muscle cars recently and they feel big and heavy, but when you plant the throttle they move. That is all the 8 needs to be truly awesome. TORQUE!
