Dream car is a mk3, I eventually got one after saving all my lunch money and working since i was 14. I finally bought on in April of 2010 (18yrs old)(now19) when just a few days b4 graduation. i paid for it in over 500 one dollar bills and assortment of other bills but it cost me $1200 it came with fraying tires, leaking p/s rack, blown speakers, stained interior, peeling paint, missing trim,electrical problems, and the smell of burning oil off the exhaust manifold. I drove it for several months and the 7mge was enough to run down civics and the other 4 banger sorts, but I'm looking to go for something to run down the mustangs,cameros,vetts, and other self proclaimed no replacement for displacement crowd.
What i have done
-Replaced p/s rack
-tokico whites
-valve cover seals
-ngk lazer platnium
-drilled brakes
-all fluid changed
-rotor button
-cap
-plug wires
-excedy clutch and pres plate
The car is 7mge-w58-g284
This weekend Im picking up a 92 sc300 with a w58. I plan on having help with the rebuilding of the motor 2JZGE non vvti. This will be turbo setup with hx35,looking for a starting goal of 400hp but having the capability of reaching 550hp.
what i am sure of
-400hp
-w58
-2jzge na-t
-walley 255 pump
-stock electronics
-BIC pre89 mounts
-spec 2 stage clutch
-3.73 lsd
not sure of
-thickness of hg
-stay with na 10:1 pistons or go with gte
-stock rods or gte rods?
-which standalone???
-is the w58 from mk3 and sc300 same linkage? (position of shifter center or swan necked)
- is the D/S from sc300 have same flange off trans like the mk3?
below are some pix when it came home and the interior stains before and after
