Let us know how the yellows feel, I was just looking at buying a set. I want full subframe bushings and control arm bushings so I can swap over all my new suspension stuff at one shot.

That was my goal but they will be shipped next week but my vacation ends wedsday. :/ so subframe goes back in with only the new ES bushings and sephirical bearing. And i was suprised that the ES kit had a poly replacement for the sephrical o_O word to wise save money and dont by th bearing lol. And rear subframe was reinforced and built r154 is being installed saturday with extreme PP and full face disk. I had some burn marks on flywheel but ill just sand it with wood and 120 grit before install. Then after all the suspension and drive train is installed its time for alignment. Then after that ita time to fix turbo drain leak and manifold leak and make new wg dump tube. ( questionable boost creep problem)

THREAD SUCKS WITHOUT PICS DAMMIT!! lol j/k but seriously though pics would be tits. I know how you feel sort of about the alignment BS I took my car after getting brand new Kumho tires to Firestone to get it aligned waited about 45min when they were done to have a big black dude that test drove my car point to a nos bottle tattoo on his arm and tell me, "Nos not turbo" and after I told him Turbo > nos then drove my car the freaking steering wheel was turned to the 1-2 o'clock position to drive straight. How in the hell do you not notice that you have to keep the wheel turned to the right in order to drive straight! I went back waited for over an hour since they already had a car on the lift and there was NO change in the steering wheel position after I told them specifically that I wanted the steering wheel to be corrected. I went back again in the hopes they would get their heads out of their ass but they told me some BS about radial drag and recommended I go back to discount tire and have them rotate the wheels. So I plan on going to a more reputable place to get my alignment corrected and a person I know through a local forum got his MK4 aligned and is extremely happy with the service and they are a well known shop too I wish I found them in the first place.

I plan on having my R154 rebuilt by MC when I get to building my 2JZ, she is just sitting in the garage but I can't start building her up yet. Glad to hear you made some monstrous progress in a single night I've pulled all nighters as well but that when I did my head gasket or replaced my water pump, that turned out to be the stupid 90 degree hose that burst, in time to go to work in the morning lol.

there is alot missing as far as pictures go. i didnt take any pictures during the spring changes.
i swapped stock springs for eibachs. used the infamous widowmaker rental tool from autozone
and a impact gun. took all of an hour to do all four. also ordered -10 line for turbo drain and
russell 45* ends because the cxracing ones have finally started to leak. and i also ordered a
Tial 44mm MVR because i cant seem to stop my CREEP problem :/ so the ebay one has to go.

bushing time

zerking off :p









DONE!!

then an alignment shop fucked up this and my vaction to work on supra :(

supraguy@aol and all other members - Do you have a spare 7mgte IACV that i could have? winter is on the way and my supra is already catching a cold on start up and holding idle at below OP temp. I want to integrate the 7mgte IAVC to the intake and use the beech adapter. i may also have the manifold slightly redesigned to comodate the KOYO RADIATOR and BOOSTER. these where always tight fits
