^ my swap is slow going but it will happen eventually

I was in new zealand in Feb....picked up a billet steel flywheel because I didn't like the one I already had. Clutch is the last thing I have to buy, and I can't make up my damn mind what I want to use....

What I've got so far

TTC adapter plate
OEM 1JZ bellhousing for R154 (TTC adapter plate adapts UZ to JZ bellhousing)
R154 from a Mk III Supra
Remains of a Soarer R154, for the shifter parts....this may or may not work...I'm still doing some figuring out.
A1 Turbos billet steel flywheel
Superrunner flywheel (anyone want this?)
Digital speed sensor for R154
IS300 shift ****
New clutch pedal assembly and master cyl.

And so I don't OT, I saw a black Soarer/SC gassing up about 2 weeks ago, at the gas station at oak and 41st...or somewhere around there...slammed on big wheels with black faces....and....ya I don't really remember...the contents of my passenger seat were distracting me

Yeah, the amount of SCs out surprised me. I see at least one daily. Also see a bunch of 3GSs as well.

so while having lunch, actually while i was in the washroom of the restaurant where i was having lunch with a friend, my friend tells me some guy in a white IS parked his car, and walked up to my car's driver window. my friend tells me this when i get back, i figure ill check it out once lunch is over cuz damn i was hungry!

sure enough, i got tagged by STkiss.

good thing i wasnt sitting by the restaurant window while this happened, otherwise id go stomping out to my car yellin, huffn n puffn "WHO THE **** ARE YOU TO TOUCH MY CAR?!" in a very angry voice ready to rip a new one into whomever it is(im very protective ever since someone tried to jack my car/rims at granville island when i had my prelude)

did you want ur card back for the next spottee?
