-A messenger wearing a homemade gas suit appears in front of Bird and Sir Shawn "You must be Bird! Here is a letter for you." Bird was confused. Sir Shawn asks "How does thou knowith of Mc Birdy Boom Boom?" Bird punches Sir Shawns arm ( Shawn I can see you actually being this character by the way ) The messenger laughs. " Everyone knows Bird of the Black Plaque! " Everyone that hears this turns and looks at Bird with fear in their eyes. The messenger realized what he said and begins to sweat. Bird's face is emotionless. Suddenly he says "......Fuck it, I don't care anymore. I assume it was easy to find me because I'm the only black guy in town right?" The messenger shrugs. Sir Shawn smirks and says. " Did the trail of dead chickens help?" The messenger laughs. " Shut the hell up Shawn...Can I have my damn letter now?!?" Bird receives a letter with a unicorn stamp on it. " No freaking way..." He begins reading. " I have been watching you and if not anything, your life right now is very amusing! By the way I want food and massage slave! Or should I say Black Plaque! Hahahaha! Love The Princess <3". Bird throws his hands in the air " WHY THE HELL AM I LOOKING FOR THIS BITCH?!?!?!" -To be continued -

We've been busy with supras in real life, not on the internets.

Yeah, spent all weekend putting mine back together and it works, but oil is leaking from somewhere, the exhaust is crazy white, and the engine still sounds weird. Wishing I had just gone to Texas and bought that SC430...

Well shit, if you weren't so far away I can think of a few people that'd be all about helping you out ;) oil leaking from somewhere?? Take some photos and be more specific. Let's see what we can do from 3 hours South. :)

I hate leaks. I'm sorry dude. I'm sorry to the rest of you guys as well. I've been busy working on my little brother's Lexus. I got the engine installed though!

Hey thanks! I got it to fire up last night on the stock ecu. Still won't fire up on AEM though. Apparently it was modified to run a "dumb" ignitor, so hopefully I don't have to do too much to get it to run.

Nice, is that an IS300 Pryo? Looking sharp!

Thanks for the support Faye and Pryo! I really wish you guys were not so far away indeed. I can follow the TSRM, but some things just come with experience that I don't have. (For example, I could not get the timing light to show me anything at all...)

I bet either of you could listen to the car for 10 seconds and tell me everything that is still wrong with it.

I am pretty sure the oil is coming off the turbo oil return line but I need to investigate... I guess that is what I get for following specified torque :p Going back in there with another new gasket and a tube of FIPG once I can confirm.

The white exhaust concerns me more, as I never had that before and it usually means coolant in the cylinders. Are there any other causes of this? (For example, not driving the car for three months, adding newly ceramic coated parts, new gaskets on manifolds and EGR valve (not cooler), or timing issues?) The exhaust didn't smell like coolant, but I guess it is time to get out the block tester again.

Thanks! It's an sc300. I had a leak from the drain as well. It ended up being a bent flange. I ditched that and went with the braided lines. Muuuuuch easier! As far as white smoke, I dunno hahaha. What does it smell like?

Silly me, I always forget the SC300. Very cool!

Hmm, had what seemed like 20-30 minutes of white exhaust. It smelled bad at first like burning but not coolant, then became odorless. It was starting to get cold out, so I am not sure if that made the exhaust appear to have color later on.

I guess this my punishment for not doing the head gasket. It had passed the compression and block tests, so I didn't want to tempt fate.
