Head goodies have arrived the valves are stronger stainless steel and coated in Nitride they also flow 2cfm more than factory. Springs allow 9000+ rpm due to higher seat pressure.

Supertech valves

Supertech springs and Titanium retainers

ARP head bolts

Very nice. Where did you get the supertech valve springs and seats from? And how much?

[SuperDave]

Been waiting for an anouncement of the valve train upgrades :P

[reddahaydn]

nice ride mate, loving the power from the NA 2ZZ. Good stuff!

[matt_glad]

Imported them for about $400 for valves and $500 for valve springs and titanium retainers including shipping

PM Me and I will pass your details onto my supplier :)

Cars making good progress, dropped it off to Alex at Highbrook Automotive (New Zealand)

Pulled gearbox out, found standard clutch was slipping its ***** off after 30,000 km. Clutch got sent to autoclutch to be upgraded and new organic disk, since its my daily drive.

2075LB clutch

Alex and myself cracking open the gearbox

interesting build up, good luck with it!

Thanks, I have been driving around for the last week with new bearings, clutch and LSD

Great news is I now don't have a gearbox whine on de-acceleration

The clutch has a bit of shudder if you try and slip it more on/off now

The LSD did need some modification for speedo ring but no biggie

The best news is I no longer wheel spin on take-off great to have some traction

If i drop the clutch it leaves two nice black lines :)
