I tried driving my supra once in the winter.... Was stuck before I made it out of the driveway. No thanks.

I am thinking it has something to do with the ignition phasing, being that I made that start up cal file in AEM pro for the series 1. And you have the newer series 2 with sequential ignition.

Could you send me the cal file for aem tuner that the car does start on?

I want to take a look at how aem is doing a few things.

It weighs under 1Kg Sean so about $30AUD, only ? mark will be the dimensions.

I'll ask my post guy tomorrow

Sweet! Thanks again.

The Dealer was nice to me today. 15% off, I think it helps when you walk in and they know you by name.

Some steps forward were made today.

My CF cooling panel arrived in the mail, as well as a couple bits of hardware from eagle that turned out to be the wrong bits, a phone call later and all is well! New care package was sent out with the correct parts.

As well I stopped by the paint store, and had some paint mixed up for the engine bay, roof, and hood. Should look trick being a shaved and tucked engine bay with base coat/clear coat paint!

This weekend I am going to focus on clearing out a spot for the supra all winter in my uncles garage. (it is heated there with better lighting)

And snow is in the forecast already.

I built a bracket to mount up to the bottom of the intercooler and welded it in place.

The piping I figured out where I wanted it to run collected some tubing, made a couple pie cuts and welded it together.

Ordering up some extruded aluminum to make a fuel rail out of later on this evening.

I figure I might need to up the flow just a bit from the stock rail.

Sean, can't wait to see this thing going. This build is inspiring me to get up off my lazy ass and work on my car. Haha

I think I'll try to get the engine in this weekend. After I get a hatch with glass, good black hood (black on red = sex), and passenger seat, all for under $100 :D
