thats a badassed car!

 

very nice i cant wait to get there w/ one of my 2 cars lol.since your in there and have the turbo off u should port the waste gate

james

 

thnx!



don't worry, i'm not to fond of boost-creep, so that wastegate is in for some rough times

 

Just needs a bigger single now. Nice car.

 

time for a small update:



made an engine stand at work so i can start to build up the engine







new racing beat oil pressure regulator





new engine mounts, hood hinges and boostcontroller









pulled the old turbo apart and it was like looking at a dried up piece op clay...

 

Very Nice! Looks like you are having alot of fun! That is what it is all about.



Your body shop guy did a great job integrating the fiberglass... it was seemless!

We all will love to see your progress! There are a lot of great resources on this forum... if you need them.

 

fun indeed! i almost enjoy this fabricating more then actually driving it



replaced the rear oil pressure regulator with one of racing beat. then i shimmed the front regulator.





replaced the thermal by-pass pellet with a racing beat eliminator





put in the racing beat oil-baffle plate





started renewing the tape on the entire wiring loom, because i am not going to tuck away any wiring, it needs to be in shape when i am putting it all back together





test fitted my alternator relocation bracket, needs some adjustment for getting the pulleys aligned properly and also the mounting needs to be fixed. finishing it up this week, then i can measure what belts i need





then it was time for some work on the engine itself. sprayed it with a nice and fresh new colour.





and another one...







resulting in:











going back at it tomorrow

 

A supra and an fc in the same garage gives me chills ! ! ! !

 

got back onto the alternator bracket today











fitment is great, pulleys align prefect now! now it just needs some finishing up...



we also sprayed the bellhousing and gearbox for as far as you can see









and i pec ked up my blow-off today
