Cooler is for the Power steering under the driver side headlamp.

Yes just get the TT water pump from toyota and bolt straight swap, it's a little PITA with the twins on there if you are replacing the whole assy but it can be done.
Don't forget the flange for the oil return line.

I actually picked that up on ebay. And as far as updates? Ordered and got a set of mk4 supra obx silicone radiator hoses. And going to get a clutch slave from autozone for 30 beans. Priced out my final tally to get the car running(including 350 for registration and 200 for a new windshield) and it's going to be 3k. Unless I can find a clutch pedal set chepear than 360? Planning on having this done before the end od the year. I want tx2k12.

so i finally got some time to get the oil pan switched out to the rear sump from my 2jzge. it was a fairly direct and easy swap as ive taken one of these off before. there is still a ****load of bolts..

i used the bolts directly off the 1jz front sump. and i needed 5 more from the ge stash.





the crankcase itself looks really good. not that much grime on it actually. big difference between this and my 230k ge bottom end.


and the rear sump assembly going on.





without a hitch.... except i broke off one bolt in the back when installing the pan-pan. it is in the alum assembly. so the rest of the bolts didn't torque them so hard.

couldn't find tq specs or bolt tighting sequences, so i had to use wing it and do a crisscross pattern like with my rb..





go rear sump POWER!! so i hear i need a mk4 supra oil return tube. but i might just try to find/fabb some rubber hoses to make the 1jz tube work..

the day after i did this the toyota fipg still didn't cure. iam not going to have this running anytime soon, but still weird that after 24hrs it's still not hard(need cialis).


so i got these 2jzge engine mounts. and i don't know which one is for right or left?? any help





and i went to the junkyard and scored a 94 camry 4 cylinder throttle cable. i hear i need a 95. But hopefully this will suffice. testimating the throttle length this will work..





that is all.. sorry this is moving slower than aids. but it's been a rough year. hoping to get this done for txtk12 before 12/12/12 yikes!!!

Well, good luck and godspeed. This has given me hope and not just a little heartburn, because at some point I want to start tearing my car apart (will have to be once I have another daily).

Can I propose the name of Frankenstein for it? Somehow seems appropriate, especially if you've ever found yourself laughing hysterically or being chased by angry villagers.

Great build, and thanks for inspiring.

IN should be intake
EX should be exhaust

camry cable can be made to work but the fitment is awful.

also mounted the ac condensor, so iam almost ready to rock..

-water pump assembly.
-need flywheel
-cltuch kit,with flywhl bolts.

Use 97-98 Supra Engine Mounts 12360-46111

Camry cable is far too long but ironically the actual wire rope length is too short and the amount of threading at the end is almost non existent giving no slack control. Overall the fitement is crap.
