thanks for the compliments

All my parts are from the US and Japan... only part from Taiwan is the 3inch exhaust which was custom made by JUN Taiwan. I have done pretty much every mod besides 2.3L and intake manifold. Im running a GT35R turbo from http://www.shearermotorsport.com/ with HKS Vpro and tuned by JUN Taiwan.
