lookin' forward to seeing the end result!

 

OK guys...long night, but the old motor is out! My friend took pics and video so ill post them here as soon as he puts them up. Tonight hopefully if all goes well and we can get everything in....maybe even start her up =D

 

Alright guys...i know i've been sucking with the pics lately...so here's a couple I took last night. Tomorrow i will get my flywheel back from the machine shop, then ill be able to throw on the clutch and tranny, and in she goes. I also cleaned up the engine pay a bit, it looks really clean!

Enough Blabbing, to the pics:

 

Nice work. Looks like my car right now, I just took the front mask off to think about how to redo the intercooler piping.

 

What did you do about the A/C lines in the way...just bend them?

 

Very nice work!!!

 

i love to see that i'm not the only one who can't wait long enough for the next day to work on the car hahah....who needs daytime...i've brought a little reading light off the top of my bed before and threw an extension chord out there just so i could keep wrenching

 

Can't wait to drive it Malek.. Have Mores start on that tsx retro asap.... and don't dirty my seats!! lol

 

Thanks

Yeah, not enough hours in the daytime so you gotta do what you gotta do i guess

YOU cant wait? Shoot...I CANT WAIT LOL! Mor and/or myself will work on the TSX/phillips retro thursday...oh, and thanks for the pic...ill go to that do it center to pick up those covers.


As for now, I got the flywheel back from the shop. It looks good...no need for a new one (phew) so Ill be installing it along with the ACT TS3-XTMM kit day after tomorrow, throw the tranny on, and if all goes well, throw the motor in too.

Only thing im worried about is the front main seal and the cam seals. I didnt use grease as per the service manual to put them on, but I did take my time and work it without putting extra stress on the seals. We shall see I guess.

Ill keep you guys updated with some more pics tomorrow when I take them.

 

lookin hawt! cant wait what kind of numbers you can squeeze out of it What are you planning on using for the ECU?

 

ECU is going to be stock for now untill I get the car up and running. After a couple months or so, Ill be doing a Borg Warner 67mm setup on either AEM or some decent piggyback if one exists. Either way, should be fun.

 

so anything new? I am excited for updates!!!

 

I thought the Supra LCAs were the same as the soarer ones.

 

Just finished the rear main seal, pilot bearing, clutch and shifter bushing kit.

We're set for tomorrow night for dropping it in. Ill have some video coverage and ill put a little video together.


Clutch is ACT TS3-XTMM (street disk on xtreeme pressure plate)
Flywheel has been resurfaced
ARP flywheel studs
new toyota pressre plate bolts
