every 1 hp = ~$15 spent so 300=$4500 for a 3.0L inline 6 engine anyway......
my power goals aren't really anything right now at this point it would be nice to get 300? but im just aiming for stock power with a rock solid bottom end first.
so far i've spent about 2000 dollars on parts and machine work alone. I still have LOTS to buy.
exhaust manifold
oil cooler
trans cooler
minor GTE electronics (coil pack, ignitor, tapped the knock sensors so i need two knock sensors, and whatever else im missing)
Auto GTE ecu
Intercooler kit
440 injectors (or 550 used for a decent price with a lex afm)
oil filter relocation kit
ct26
fuel pump
hose kit
I think thats about it?
*PROBABLY* not hahaha not unless some how magically i get an idle air control solenoid assembly, turbo elbow, AFM, power steering pump, and some AN/steel braided lines, for the lack of hoses and banjo bolts on my mint condition ct26 i really think that's about it i could pretty much get this thing running by the end of the month if i had all that.
and thank you for the compliment. This motor is definitely way better than it looked before!

I am in a similar situation. My 2JZ is at the machine shop right now. This build should be a monster. I am not planning on running her until early April.
Hi fellas, long time no post. guess what? im going some where to check something out today. ill leave you in suspense for now.
my last post may or may not be exactly that....SHH can't give it away just yet! Next weekend you'll see. Im going tonight to see it
Welll here's my big update! I bought another Supra for my new motor! Can anyone take a guess as to who's it was previously?
i already am! I'm excited my motor is almost together. I just gotta get the wiring figured out and boom! oh and i need a couple more gaskets
Soo close! check it guys, please note that the water pump is just a test setup im ordering a new one. Im so close! Thank you Rob for the shell once again. I may need your guidance with your electrical setup but other than that im golden! This should be up and running between the first two weeks of July!
Looks like a nice build. I'm actually rebuilding mine right now too. Did you end up using the stock injectors?

Yep, he blew his engine and called it quits with Supras
Happily, Matt here is keeping his shell in one piece and having it live again (which Rob really wanted)
