Default My 97 sc300 NA-T 6 speed AEM with LQ9 coils build

I decided to make a new thread since my car has transformed so many ways and I think it will help the members if I made a specific thread just for the engine and tranny mods. My car started off as an 97 sc300 auto then it went to have 5 speed r154 with the N/A motor. Now my plan has changed to NA-T with a v160 and standalone.

Engine :

94 supra N/A motor with 76k miles
AEM V1 standalone
Custom FFIM with Q45 TB
LQ9 coilpacks from **** Performance
BW s366 turbo
-4an oil feed (hard line) -10an return
Oil pan return welded
CX racing turbo manifold
3" inlet/out intercooler and piping
Walbro 416 fuel pump
1000cc Bosch ev14 injectors
-8an fuel feed -6an fuel return
Stock fuel rail with -8an fitting welded on
Mishimotor aluminum radiator
TT headgasket
ARP headstuds
New oil pump
New waterpump
New valvestems

Tranny :

Supra 6-speed v160
3.13 LSD rear end
Stock flywheel
OEM clutch and pressure plate
Custom one piece driveshaft

Suspension :
Bilstein Supra shocks
Hypercoil Springs 600/350
Coilover sleeves

Pulling the stock motor out



Dirty Engine Bay



Both Motors on engine stands



I mocked everything up on the motor that is going into the car then I started to tear it apart again to put it back together for the final time.

Disassembling


Taped


Primer


Painted Black


Freshen up parts






Rear end back together


New shifter and tripod parts


Removing old auto tunnel





New tunnel cut like factory tunnel



Brought some primer and body filler



Block prepped


Head prepped


Arp headstuds and Tt hg with some copper stuff. I just put some on for extra security. I figured it couldn't hurt anything and my friend build quite a bit of motors for his drag cars that run in pro mod. He just said have a fun time taking off the head once you have use that copper spray.


I am waiting for my lincoln welder to show up so i can weld in the 6 speed tunnel. Slowly but surely this project will get done.

I'm not sure whatever my tuner thinks is good or when my clutch is slipping.

I don't plan on driving the car much. Its not that cold in Houston so I don't really have to worry about cold start issues. I plan on being on E85 so a standalone is way better. Also I would have to get a piggyback for the TT ecu as well which will add to the cost of the TT ecu so I sold it and got a hell of a deal on a AEM v1 so its kinda no brainer for me.

That was my logic. I don't know what color to paint my car. Factory stock color or something else.
