Small update. So ever since the previous owner got his R154 swap done by a shop it has been making some loud noises. He replaced the clutch and flywheel because he thought it was the root of the issue. Turns out this probably was the cause.

So the font bearing retainer broke. Waiting on a replacement parts form Toyota, and they should be here some time next week. I am trying to get this car done for a big meet we are having in NorCal so I hope I make it. I have had this car for 1 week now and it has been on jack stands for 6 of the 7 days lol.

Sweeeet. I should be getting some of the parts I need tomorrow so I might be able to get it running tomorrow!

I had my air filter come in today so I slapped it on. the turbo used to feed to the stock air box for a more stock look. YUCK.

So I took it for a drive but had to feed the thirsty beast first.

Over all so far so good. I do need to get the car retuned because the intake is causing the car to run lean.
