    Only keeping an AEM logo on one light? That's what I would do.

    After reading the comment from you stating that "Most people on this forum(99%) are complete noobs and don't know the first thing about what it means to build a custom project. Fucking cheap ass corolla owners.", Im still waiting for you to answer the above question.

    And I said I am not going to give you the benefit of the doubt to prove you wrong again, and I am standing by this decision. Learn to do your research before pointing accusing fingers.

    From the opening post:
    The 1ZZ-FE that came with the car had issues. When i say issues, i mean, broken pistons and rods. So I bought a almost brand new one that had 22,000 miles on it, rebuilt it with
    4- 1 racing header,
    Stage 2 cams, Wiseco Forged pistons,
    Darton sleeves,
    Reduced compression to 8.8:1,
    with 82.5mm pistons,
    Circuitworks oil pump.
    Valve Springs
    Titanium retainers.


    Just like JDMJody's build :cool: except he used 8.8:1 pistons and on stock ECU. Didn't know built 1zzfe are so common nowadays on this forum.

    To prove me wrong again. lol. Alrighty dude. Ill just go mingle with the "fucking cheap ass corolla owners"...didnt realize that you were so wealthy.

    lol

    All the "race built" 1ZZ's I see when googling have forced induction.

    But whatever. Not even worth it.

    It's just that the Internet is so full of bullshit that it's easy not to believe things that are not that common. I don't think anyone here is calling you a liar about your car or anything like that, it's just easier to believe something if we have pics or video to use as proof. I still want to see a video of your car warmed up idling below 1K and going all the way to 9K. You have said twice now that you don't want to prove us wrong again:
    On March 10
    And on March 17
    When did you ever prove us wrong the first time around? You have to do that once before you can do it again. All you've done is post a list of mods and a video that sounds a little strange. (admittedly you say your camera sucks, mine does too, it never captures the sound of the exhaust correctly) You said you will post a video once your car is warmed up to show how your car redlines at 9000rpm. I want to see this as well. Also I haven't found what you have done to your car that makes it rev that high. Your defense is always to Google stuff. That doesn't work, because we're not interested in what other people have done to "race build" their 1ZZ. We're wondering about your car. And your lack of supplying evidence is the reason that this is suspicious, along with all the hostility, which is not necessary. Now please don't take this post as me calling this car a bunch of bull, because like everyone else on this board, I haven't seen your car in person, so I have no right to claim whether or not you are making things up. I'm just trying to make it clear how it is suspicious. Keep in mind that this is the Internet, which is laden with so much crap, that it's only natural for people not to believe you. Just relax bro, it's only the Internet, no need to get all worked up. Just post a video or pics or whatever you can, and if you can actually prove us wrong (again somehow lol), then we will all shut up, leave you alone, and appreciate your car. Anyway, that's all I have to say on this whole argument. Slightly changing the subject, did you get the correct carbon fiber trunk? And how's that front lip coming along?

    Thanks for clearing that up Mackman.

    1.) The first time was when Turbo4age posted the huge "lol" in response to my claim that the car revs to 9000 rpm, and rollatuner too.

    2.) I WILL post up a second video, showing when the car is fully warmed up and reving the 9000rpm. I kind of have to force it to get there by staying on wot for a second or two longer, which i do not feel comfortable doing, but it does get there.

    3.) The people are giving me the run around(VIS trunk people). I will see how it plays out eventually.

    4.) The car hits the body shop next week. All i will get done for now is removing the oem pinstripes and custom fitting lip to car.

    Yeah that first video didn't sound very engine friendly, especially since it just turned on. I've been wanting a carbon fiber hood and trunk, I don't think it would clash too much with my car, since it's a dark color. Can't wait to see the fixed up body, it's gonna look good with the spoiler and valences. :D

    options. I was going to post more, :rofl: It IS too much, and I DO believe in wheels being appropriately priced for the car it's going on.

    But that's just that, WHEELS.

    Engine is a different case altogether. It's like comparing apples and oranges, come on E, I expected more from you. :D
    And E, why were you saying all race built 1zz-fes have forced induction. I didn't say race built ZZE110. 1zz-fe's are Naturally Aspirated engines, and if i say 1zz-fe, I meant just the engine.........duh.

    :rofl: this is extremely funny to me, I don't know why.

    Oh and slowrolla, you are going to eat those words once i post up that video, but I won't kill my engine just to prove you wrong, that would be super SUPER M.R.

    So dropping in a lambo engine into a kia sephia is "a different case all together" than putting 10k gold and diamond rims on a gremlin?

    BS- Its contradictory and you know it.


    You kept saying to "google" it (a cop out reply in my opinion), so I did. And all that came are had turbos on em. Yours doesnt....so...... (remember, you told us to google....)

    Probably because some people that are put in awkward situations laugh as a defense mechanism?

    Lol. the backtracking begins. hehe

    NO ONE is on your side on this one, and you are calling US out? lol. THAT is funny.

    To DeebsTundra: Are you M.R? No analytical skills whatsoever. That's your problem if you don't understand. Read E's post then mine, maybe after you read it a 100 times, you will get it.

    You do realize those are cartoon corollas right?

    E: Mackman says "i" need to calm down, but jeez, you guys own at being picky(bitchy).

    You too have no analytical skills. If you read my post that says "google it". That post asked you to google what makes any engine a race built engine, not google "race built 1zzfe",

    You know nothing about psychology, so don't even start that with someone that has a Degree in it. Ever heard of socrates? lol.

    lol, lets see how long it will go on. :D, I am enjoying this too much. I want more people that think they have their shit down to make a complete fool of themselves some more.

    This will prove my point that 99% of people on here(trdforums.com) really don't know anything. Just like nobody knew anything about the little problem i had with AEM wideband, after telling them everything anyone would need to diagnose the problem.

    I don't care about any of this drama. I just want FolkenStrategos or JDMjody to post picture of their built 1zzfe. Why is this so much to ask for? How about new rule. No one can claim they have this and that done if they can't prove it?!

    No Jody doesn't have it anymroe, he has a Cressida remember? Although I was going through posts, and he was saying that he already bought parts for a 8.5 front end. But before that, he posted a pic of a car that already had that front end, when he was asking about that hood alignment. But he also said that he made a headlight/intake custom thing too, remember? LOL either way, I'm patient, I don't mind waiting for this video.

    Oh does he? Can't claim it without pics now haha. Besides he said his bro has it. Someone show me a 'built' 1zzfe damnit!

    On another thought why would you give your brother the built 01 Corolla with built 1zzfe and then pick up a VE to do a 01 conversion on? A built 1zzfe is more rare than a turbo/supercharged 1zzfe

    "Sacarasm" mustve translated cuz you read it correctly. :D

    Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. We'll all be the uneducated bunch while you continue to just skirt the real issue at hand....proving what youve got. Its as easy as that


    Then leave and dont come back.
    If youre above everyone here, no use hanging out here then. You wont learn anything or enjoy yourself.


    THIS. Its not that fucking hard.

    Either way...theres really no point to all of this. Other than backing yourself up. But I guess thats not really that big of a deal :)
