Got my Supra tt Denso new fuel pump installed, 12 volt mod by way to paperclip in engine block scan tool hookup from batt+ which only has power when you have the key in the ignition to fuel pump ecu 2 pins over.

Raced a newish Mazda speed 3 on 21 psi exhaust, intake, bov and he had methanol hooked up but hadn't got his little COBB tuned for it so he wasn't using it. Beat him in 4 20 rolls but they were close. I'd always pull away at the end of third and fourth. He beat me in 1 40 roll because second gear was at 4200rpms and i just burned tire hitting the gas at that point. I should have been in third and done a 45 or 50 roll but he knew i had the top end in his vocabulary.

Cool guy, I met up with a local crew, raced the fastest guy there and won. Good night in the SC

Found out I bought (apparently) the wrong headlight bulb, and it's a 9006 for the lowbeam, not 9005? ****.

Been installing an interior into my SC. put the carpet in on Saturday but didn't have all the clips necessary to stretch the carpet into the door sills correctly. Went to a junk yard and picked up some clips (they gave them to me for free ). Also picked up a new rear seat back. Installed the clips into my SC. Also tracked down a water leak. It was a result of the plastic seal behind the door panel being missing. Made a new seal using heavy plastic and caulk. It was a good day!

Waiting on the following:
Door panels
Rear passenger speaker
Tien Coilovers
Stage 4 Competition Clutch
Hood and trunk gas shocks
New passenger side inside door handle

I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact the passenger side needs to be 10mm lower to make the front end even...
I ate threw 2 fender liners on my driver side haha.

9005 is usually used as a high beam bulb. 9006 is the low beam bulb.

The only reason I haven't lost my driver side fender liner is because I was too lazy to take off the liner when I hit the tabs with a sledge hammer. Now the tabs have cut through the the liner and folded over the liner like a hook.

Received the rear passenger speaker, which then allowed me to install:

- Rear deck lid
- 3rd brake light
- Rear window interior trim
- Rear quarter panel cover
- Rear seat back and bottom
- Carpet door sill trim

Once I get the door panels from Aliga, I'll have a whole interior.
Also bought a set of staggered Rota Torque wheels
18x8.5
18x9.5

Now I need tires. I'm thinking 245/40/18 and 275/35/18.

I probably won't be doing anything else until the weekend when my coilovers arrive
