Looks good man. When you post up pictures using Photobucket, everyone can see all your photos. You need to change the settings. You have approximately 420 photos on there. Anyone can scroll through them. Just letting you know man.

Those springs look good on your car. I'm glad they're finally being put to use after all those years of sitting on a shelf.

Along with some black interior pieces, I was able to score some of these...

They've been sitting in my garage for awhile as I took care of some other things...but there are finally in thanks to some disassembling of the stock seats and then headed off Haasport for a bit of fabrication.

Here's the finally parting out of the stock



BTW...those som'*****es aren't as heavy as many people want to think.



Finally got them loaded up!



And with the OEM brackets, I took off the motor from the brackets and had Haasport fab up a bit of metal and welding to make some one-offs to seat them properly and a bit more high up for me.



The passenger seat installed...



And some complete interior shots.

What's going on JB ? Nice seats ...it is time to unlock the power of that 2jzgte . It is almost a year now ... You can more than double the stock power you are experiencing right now without breaking the bank buddy. The stock long block can give you the 700rwhp reliably . Many have tested that above +900rwhp but it will be pushing it.

Let's go .. start collecting the parts here and there .

That's the plan! Thanks for the advice about the Borg Warner S360...definitely what I'm looking for. A streetable 500+whp is in my grasp and with me working a part time job I can definitely see this happening in a few months.

So like you said...time to start collecting parts!

Anytime buddy. You just have to make sure of your long range plan . That BW 360 will bring you to where you want at 500rwhp and a bit more .. but you know It's a disease. Once you see that power , you want more then you start changing things again .

So peg your RWHP goal so you know which parts you have to look for and you don't waste money down the road changing stuff again. Do it once and right as they say . Now you got the disease caused by BOOST !

Finally putting my feet to the fire and getting some of these projects completed...first up its time to work on these door panels, which have seen better days. I've also picked up a few black interior pieces on the cheap from fellow SC owners around town.

How are you going to fix those door panels? If only you were taking out some TT MKIV front seats, I know someone who might want them...
