the 1jz is almost ready to go in, the hole is in the firewall, the ignitor is mounted and the pan is on. all thats left are finding my old rubber mounts, or buying a set off of slow, whatever comes first. i need to run to the hardware store and get some bolts to mount my intercooler (no JDM tyte zip ties there) the check valve on the BOV has been removed in favor of a tee fitting (one vented). turns out that the shipping company only dented the shit out of the pan, not cracking it. the oil pickup tube is still in great shape and the baffle is good. Oh, BTW, no more AC components in my car other than the compressor on the jz engine (for now).

Good work guys!ok, wiring ALMOST DONE just have to wire my boost guage (just a + and a - for that). got the downpipe on but i really dont want to mate it to a stock cat. sooo close to completion, just one clutch line and a few bolts to go. oh and the reassembly of the interior
