thanks man! yeah.. i sat in my car for 20 minutes the other day trying to figure out where i wanted to mount it, so it'd be aesthetically pleasing. then i looked at the shifter area and decided to measure it and see if i could also put the boost controller in the same spot, and it fit. soo i drilled it out today and made it work!

well iv been doing alot of thinking and researching on what my next mod will be. i decided single turbo! heres what i plan on getting

1. Holset hx35 or hy35 (fast spool but less top end)
--12CM non-wastegated hot side
--external waste gate, still not sure which one but some kind of 4 bolt prolly tial

2. xs-power manifold - weld 2 braces onto it

3. earls fittings and lines for the -4an oil feed / -10an drain -
--already have a oil sandwich plate
--put a oil restrictor inline

4. egay downpipe kit with vband

5. safc2, boost controller
--friend has them for realllll cheap

6. 550 supra injectors w/ resistor boxes

all together im figuring around $9-950 for everything. only going to run low boost till i put headstuds in so 10Low-15High psi

you should not need the resistor boxes when using the safc2 with the injectors.

Please replace the top and bottom tanks it looks like they are going to shatter.

like the turbo timer, wheels, wideband o2

Some of you know i totalled my sc300. Thankfully i have full coverage but i didnt have recipets for my parts anyway im getting a little chunk of change so i decided im going to get another sc and swap everything over!

with insurance money, and money i have saved up im buying
-black sc400 shell in perfect condition from a friend!
-safc2
-evc iv
-pioneer dvd player
-valentine1
-speed cut controller
-t3 manifold + oil lines
-tial 38mm wastegate
-bigger front mount + new piping
-samco radiator hoses
-supra 550cc injectors + resistor
-shine auto project kit
-welding in a 4 pt roll cage with rear X -taking the rear seat out
-might convert the sc400 to a manual since im pulling my 1jzgte out - have a clutch, lightweight flywheel and pedal assembly with master cylinder
-paint will be a lexus white, not sure which yet but i have time since i cant paint till spring

my buddy owes me a good amount of cash so hes giving me his PAIR of authentic Bride XAXii reclinable seats with rails with heigh adjustment for driver as partical payment for my fully built 1jzgte head

ill eventually get new wheels. lm replicas in flat black and paint the studs white to match my car.

Ill post pics of the new car and parts once i start recieving them! plan is to have the car painted and good to go by tx2k11

getting the car tomorrow!

what sucks the most is that i have 0 time to work on my car..

next weekend is christmas
weekend after that is new years
weekend after that is my birthday
weekend after that i can FINALLY start to do work

by the time i get home its already dark :/ oh well.. in the mean time..

picking up the sc300 tomorrow and maybe ill try and swap the suspension and wheels over, possibly the gauges if i have time before my works' christmas party. sunday im going to my grandmothers for christmas dinner so i cant do anything. but im keeping my chin up. i figure i can still gather all of my parts and get it ready after that shouldnt take long..

i also decided to run aem ems instead of a safc2.. figured this way i can get the most out of my car.. 2 months ago i had both a soarer r154 transmission and aem ems v1 for tt mk4 supra.. ughhhhh of COURSE i had to sell them.
