BigZavs T56 swap/Finishing my 1.5JZ project

[Bigzavs]

funny how in texas, tornadoes dont bother us but give us some snow and we have no clue what to do.

we got 12.5" total snow here in DFW, almost 5" over the previous record snowfall

Just proves 1 point sir. Since the Cowboys didn't win the super bowl and that the Saints did, Hell has frozen over sir!

lmao! nicely put, although the saints deserved that win, they played a hell of a game!

and i was pretty impressed with the 'Boys this season, although they still dont hold week to week, they had a great season

I couldn't agree with you more. Not much of a Saints fan nor cowboys, but hopefully the boys atleast make it to the bowl next year! I'm suprised phillips is still coaching there honestly. Will see.
Sorry about going OT in your thread so far all looks good brother!

lol, no worries on the OT, theres nothing to post about the car yet due to the snow!

besides this is a Texan build thread, football talk was bound to get in here

 

[Justin727]

yes sir! I'll eventually go back home to visit family sometime this year when I get some Leave! (houston)

 

[Bigzavs]

not much of an update, but finally got what was left of the stock pilot bearing out of the crank, new bushing is in, just waiting on the bellhousing now, got the flywheel already.

 

[Bigzavs]

also had to get a new tps connector for my q45 throttle, broke the one i had on accident.

also got a set of ES300 fogs to start fitting on the car

thanks man.

update for today, got the flywheel in early this morning, so once majestic calls me to go pick the turbo up, ill be dropping the clutch off to be; rebuilt, spline changed, PP worked on, and flywheel resurfaced

also cleaned up all the haze on my guage cluster clear piece thingy, getting ready to make the digital parts fit in there

 

[Bigzavs]

not sure how much progress there will be for the next week or so. tore my shoulder out of socket last night on dumbbell shoulder press at the gym, so i pretty much have no serious use of my left arm, can't even lift a gallon of milk with it.

 

[Bigzavs]

got the harness run, and the intake manifold back on today despite the gimpness, although my shoulder popped out once.

Nice progress so far Ben. I'm loving this setup. I want to go AEM sooo bad right now. Which one do you have for your car? Is it the first version and is it made for the 2jz? Thanks.

[Bigzavs]
