Friend of mine and me did this today , was pretty painless, exept for accidently putting the cam timing in reverse (180*) that made for some LOUD pops , long story short, after we played with the distributor a bit (damn timing) the car finally started.

- My water pump was an 11 Bolt, My cars build date is 6/93. I know there was a lengthy discussion about this. Scared me at first, but ended up being fine.

- Everything bolted up (minor cutting of the batt tray to fit the shorud) and the rad fit PERFECT, all we did was flip the rubber mounts upside down, and the top brackets bolted perfectly with no modifications.

- All that has to be done is: Im waiting on some water pump O rings (the one that connects the pump to the engine via the bypass pipe) cause one of them was brittle and broke, so he threw some sealant as a temp fix until my rings come in sat morning (4 bleeping 80 per bleeping ring ) Only one is leaking slightly, but i'll replace all of them. and im going to need a new shroud, the one i got has seen better days, and is being held on by zipties...

Rad: Mishimoto Supra TT fitement
Waterpump: Aisin (exact part# from Supra)
Belt: OEM
Tools: Impact Gun/Chain Wrench/Prying bar

hmm we started at about 9am, we were completely done @ 3 Most time was spent taking teh crank pulley off, making sure the cams/crank were lined up, trimming the shorud/battery tray for the radiator and getting the timing set, so the car would start. He decided to remove the distrib for easier access to the water neck (wpump bypass pipe thingy) and replaced the oring there. The old one was so small and brittle. Suprisingly, the ONLY leak when we were done was from the bypass pipe's bottom oring which decided to say "f'u" so i had to swing over to the toyo dealership and order the set. It should be here Saturday morning.
ill mock up what me and my friend did (he did a little more, as he actually knew what he was doing.) and write a step by step as best i can. Stay tuned
