You just need to tell him the other engine blew and this was all i could find at scrap yard, some of these cops will be driving these kinds of cars.
You sure you live in U.A.E bud :razz: ?
As per the law,any modification done outside the dealership is an offence.GS and SCs can get away with a 2J/1J because these variants were offered by Toyota (I'm not too sure if GSs even get away with 2JZ-GTEs).Try swapping a 2JZ-GTE into a Yaris and explain to the cops that its a Toyota with a Toyota motor :smile:
It usually comes down to how much the cops here know about your car.i've been stopped several times with the Starlet and trust me they usually don't know what car it is as its debadged with a Soleil trunk!Guy has a Tercel,a FI Tercel is a sure impound and that hood scoop and badges ask for trouble because a 4E-FTE Tercel is not something new.I never said change the hood w/o a fmic,I don't think the owner is that stupid!

@7afe
Consider getting a custom manifold as the stock manifold is very restrictive,might have to give up on your air-con though :!:

All the stickers have been taken off . The only sticker it has is a GT sticker at the back. NO WAY im giving up AC for a custom manifold. It has a straight down pipe & im happy with that. Im just annoyed with the car because i cant go over 100 on high ways as the turbo spools up at if a leave my accelerator just a little the waste gate keeps on going like wooos 8-) h .. Its like if i wanna speed i can go all the way .. or stay at 100-110 on highways ....
Just dropped in a K&N Filter today as the car had No air filter at all. It was a pain in the %#%$ to put it! But i did it somehow in the end! Im thinking to put in the filter facing down ... like putting it from underneath the car or leave it like the way it is.

Here are some pics

Start a new thread under Members gallery with your Car model/ year as the
Topic Name..
and add all your pics there bro...
upload to tinypic.com next time and just paste the link like this:
[img]theLink[/img]
then we can see the pics on the thread itself without going to a link to see it.
