2jzgte build/ wire tuck/ fuse box relocation
Started my build early this month and after reading all the posts on other peoples builds sounded like fun posting about it along the way. Also not to many people do wire tuck and fuse box relocations with the steps it took to do so! So i will do my best to help on that topic along the way. Here is a couple pics of what i habe done so far
When i started taking the engine out
Engine out
Picked up the motor about a week later
Toyota supra Radiator upgrade
Lil Single turbo kit i picked up
Hks timing belt upgrade
New belt, idler pully, tensioner, and water pump
Intake manifold mounted and waiting on new lower timing belt cover/ pulleys amd maybe a cam gear why not at this point haha
Will take some more pics tomorrow with pulleys on
Started stripping the engine bay to get it ready for paint. Im going with midnight purple pearl from the gtr also going to throw in some purple rainbow flake in the clear. paint code is LP2 for anyone wanting to know and this is what the color will look like
After getting most of the wires amd fuse boxes out
Quick wipe down before i pressure wash it
Will add some more pics of progress tomorrow!!!

Most of the time the compressor cover is left off it's to clock it. Personally, I've always left it on (compressors are fragile!) backed the bolts off and carefully clocked it around.
good luck OP, super keen to see this turn out.
