                I was yelling at the fireman when he tried to open the hood like a conventional hood with a pry bar. I was like "it flips up the OTHER way!!!"

                      All I see is new hipster fad.

                      2JZ, break all windows, spray acid on bottlecaps to finalize the look.

                      Profit?

                          Sure why not? perfect reason to shave the bay and swap a 24v.

                          Looks like you will need to splice a new c101 connector on the car side harness but that can be matched up inside.

I don't have full coverage on the car so no help from insurance. I was picking it up from a shop that was replacing the camshaft and crankshaft sensors when it happened so they are supposedly checking to see if their insurance will cover anything. I'd hate to scrap it for parts as I really do love this car.
                            Any competent mechanic should have immediately told you the fuel lines needed to be replaced if he was working under the hood of your car.

                            The car is not worth fixing man, it really isn't.

                              ^ this, and there is no cam sensor on that car, so I hope you didn't pay for one.
