    Not what I was referring to lol. The fact that every new guy goes on and asks how to convert to vvti and put LEDs in the dash.

    See i didnt need to ask about the gauges... that is kinda common knowledge right... or at least trial and error... i didnt know there were 2 motors... hondas i can work on till i die and know what im doing, toyota is all new, i mean new engine codes i need to learn and chassis codes, i mean i know my honda motors almost perfect... so i am not really into the whole tuner anymore, i may rebuild and turbo later but its not on my list i just want a nice car that gets 35-40 MPG lol... thats not a prius...

    I was talking about when you swap in a vvti motor, the entire motor, not the misc parts that give vvti.

    Yeah there are 2 approaches to getting vvti in a 98-99 corolla. Swap out the entire engine and harness from a 00-02, or get the ECU, cams, head and misc from a vvti engine and put them on your engine that you have. Better route is to swap a lower mileage newer motor into your car than opening yours up.

    Awww lol

    It says 2.4L i4 and 5 speed in his sig which you said you read...not sure how that could be confused with a v6 and a 6 speed.

    Its a 5spd i4 with v6 rims. Its def dropped more than 2 inches, i'd say about 3"+, the fog lights are the JDM inspire fogs. Not gonna black out the chrome, I like its "vip," look. Plus i'm getting a new grill peice that should compliment it and make it a little bigger. Does have a spoiler and i dont wanna get blacked out head lights because i dont want after market crap unless its OEM.

    I have a build thread here;
    http://trdforums.org/threads/russians-honda-build-thread.34865/page-58#post-452631

    Its being spammed and trolled the hell out at the moment.

    x100, even the new Honda guy agrees with me.

    Well, you did request a trollface :D

    OMG you'll love the G35.... cause I love ours. It's hella fast and sick, especially with the intake mods.

    Yeah it's the perfect car... kinda big though but whatever. It's still plenty solid and fast to make up for it. I would have considered getting one, but it would have been pointless having 2 G35s in the garage lol.
