CatManD3W SC300 Ongoing Build...
Pics from first day I picked her up....
After a fresh wash and wax..
Decided to take car of some maintenance items first...Valve cover gaskets, intake manifold gaskets, new denso iridium spark plugs, NGK plug wires, new cap and rotor...While had the engine apart figured I could do a little engine cleanup and dress up. Painted various engine parts with VHT High Temp Paint...Overall I am very pleased with the turnout..

Thanks....Ready to get the motor so I can start degreasing the engine bay out and replacing the steering rack bushings, replace fuel filter, and other maintenance related tasks while saving up for the 2jzgte which will be bought in feb/march or 2014. A lot of things to do on the car until that times come. I am going to be taking my time with the restoration on the car and doing it the right way. I have no desire to rush the build as my original intentions was to be a project for me.

While I have some down time on the car until I have enough for 2jzgte....Figured it would be a good time to tackle some of the interior while I wait.....All of these parts I used SEM Landau Black on. Turned out really well. I am going for two tone, but I will be leaving the dash and upper trim panels factory brown.
Decided to throw a few pieces in to get an idea of what it is going to look like
I am going to redoing the wood trim panels, new black vinyl on doors, and getting ready to dye my carpet black as well..

Next on my list after the interior will be replacing steering rack bushings, upper and lower control arm bushings, front and rear and sway bar bushings front and rear.
I am beginning to accumulate parts for the GTE swap....I will be using a competition clutch 1620 with the W58 for the time being hopefully it will last a year with the GTE mated up to it.
Stay Tuned for my pics as the SC progresses over the next few months!!!!
