UPDATE!!!

i gave up on the car for a bit due to a improperly rebuilt 6 speedtrans. so the car has been sitting in my garage looking purty.

i was no joke very close to burning the car and calling it a day. im glad i stood back for a bit to take a breather from it.

im taking it this tuesday to reinstall the now working 6 speed, then going for numbers. wish me luck fellas.

lol....the car has just sat there for an eternity. i went to memphis tennessee to see some drag racing and on the way back home decided something.

im going to sell the 6 speed with the new clutch and flywheel with driveshaft for the sc, ditch the motor, sell the fsm intake manifold. and install a th400 trans, gte block that is now built and go drag racing the right way with the lexus.....im sending the car to fsm in philly to do the build and get the car ready for texas 2k8 for drag competition.....stay tuned

Oh okay, his post just said "GTE block" I wasn't aware he was talking about an entire longblock.

i will not be using the fsm manifold any longer, i am considering the full race rail, manifold, tb setup. and a couple of other setups. i have a veilside intake manifold here at home but would rather put that on my supra than the lexus.
i might even go with the virtual works manifold,who knows.

but this will be a 2jzgte long block, full ferrera valvetrain, hks manifold and gt wastegate instead of the boost logic mani and tial 44mm gate. carrilo rods cp 40 over pistons, etc.

but of course the jewel will be the turbo 400 trans. pics before it is ripped appart will be up soon.
