OK so finally got the damn body lift. I was seriously looking on Mcmaster Saturday for the raw material to make my own when the mailman dropped it off.

The kit is of so so quality; certainly...

As far as I'm concerned, there is no feasible way to do this swap without at least a 1.5" body lift. You would have to cut or beat the shit out of the trans tunnel to avoid the body lift, and...

Glad to see another swapper here! Was hoping to attract others here. Smitherz build so comprehensive, I thought it would be great to put a ton on info in one place.

Still no body lift. Guess...

Yeah, I saw how you chopped the shock towers. I REALLY want to avoid that, but it looks like that may be requisite to fit these things. I either have to buy a welder, grow some balls and slice those...

Dude I wish my parts bin looked like that! All I have are some Honda badges and some blue wedge bulbs!

Shit, I had the same gen. Integra! My first car. Never made it fast (though I bought $3K worth of parts to build an awesome big cam B18B, but never did it), but I hammered it on tracks all over AZ...

A/C is gonna be a pain. Definitely need it, but you're right, it has to be one of the last things I do. I'm sure I can find a shop to make me some custom lines. The Lexus compressor rolled on it's...

Finally yanked out the 5VZ. What a pain. So many wire connectors and hard to reach bolts. Coming from Honda swaps, this is certainly more difficult,

You're right man, I should have cut that...

How about another 1UZ Swap!?! 3rd Gen 4Runner 5VZ -> OBD-II 1UZ
