motor and exhausts are at the house, making the only 2 out-standing orders the BIC mounts and the MBC. wheels will be in my possession tomorrow, they are payed for and are picked up by a friend. now, once this is all done, i need to chill with the spending untill the twins blow. then comes drewgo's mani and downpipe and a 61-67mm turbo, along with a tial 44, emanage, AEM wideband and a greddy type r BOV.
got home to check out the motor, and it is remarkably clean. oil filter looks practically brand new (will still be changed) the belts are tight and it looks like there is only a body plug that is cut after the connector.
i took a closer look at my exhaust and it has a 5zigen muffler, did they ever make anything for our cars, or would this be custom?

damnit, i just cant stop spending money. i just placed another order through driftmotion for a knockoff greddy BOV, a greddy BOV adapter pipe and 2 2.5" hose clamps.
ok, now i SWEAR im done with buying parts for a while (other than maintainance). i just ordered a green/white prosport mechanical boost guage.
LilMissMkIII said:Why do i not believe that statement???
because i now need to spend over $300 to get this motor together. JHot and UPS freight decided that they want to stop me from getting my supra on the road. i pulled the motor off of the pallet to find that the oil pan is destroyed, oil is leaking everywhere (thought people shipped engines dry anyway) and that the oil pickup has a 90% chance of being toast. here is the damage, and i will let everyone know how this plays out.

Too bad it wasnt a 7m...I have a few pans and pickups here that id GIVE you... Lemme know when this thing is up and running.
Lemme know when this thing is up and running.I just heard back from JHot and it looks like they are going to take care of me. They said that they were going to either send me the parts or a nice check.
MAJOR update, no more 7m. the motor left with my friend jon, so that he could use the mounts and pan for his car. glad its gone and i can move on with the 1j.
Is it in yet! yeah...thats what she said...Jk. How is it going thou? i havent talked to you on aim in a while. That sucks that that happened to your oil pan. they should have packed it better!
im hoping that it will be ready by this sundays autocross. need to check with a few people on when they can help. i have everything but experiance and an engine hoist.
Hey man, that is really awesome!!!!!!
Best of luck you find people to help and everything is nice and straight forward!!!
