    You are riot, they are a joy. I sold my 911 and kept the jzx. I'd suggest you get the geometry setup, I use mine for track days and back road fun. With a more aggressive geo set up they feel great and agile.
    Regarding power if it's just a piggy back and boost up to 1bar we got 287whp at 1bar running bigger injectors, fuel pump and a link ecu.

    I have the JZX90 Mark 2 tourer V version with the R154 5spd transmission, only mod is the HKS exhaust that came on the car. Also have a S13 vert(auto), a RHD Zenki S14(5 Spd), & the daily is a 2022 Mazda CX5 turbo. If you are ever in the Seattle WA area let me know & you can check out my collection.

      @HelloRoad  Рік тому

      Haha thanks!! From everything that I've read over the years, the safest way to mount a child seat in a car is to use the seat belt. Even for a rear facing seat. Just follow the instructions for mounting via seat belt, tighten the crap out of it, make sure it doesn't wiggle around, and you should be good.
