ha - that little block that goes into Junction Block No 2 (the main under hood fuse section) - I want to get that off the NA, if that's ok - want to modify it to fit in the empty slot of my fuse block, to run the wiring of the headlights all stock like!

Hope they fit enough to get my 3" intercooler piping through! 
Of course making the oval pipe is plan B.
Of course making the oval pipe is plan B.I think it'll be close, but it should work. Just ensure that your IC pipe has very little movement right there (hell, I'd even bolt it in place, top and bottom of the frame rail, and use those hump silicone couplers to allow for vibration and such)
How much I just need about a 1 foot piece of it, otherwise I'm gonna find a way to bend it without compromising the the air flow.
TODAY: Wet sanded targa down ready for paint, door handles and started on the fender, keep in mind I only have about 3 hours a day to get down to the body shop with class and things so it's good progress in my mind.
Should be putting some paint on some small pieces tomorrow!

Update: Got my thin e fans and heat wrap, and here's some body work progress. Been working all weekend tryin to get this thing out, body man said we're looking to get final paint on by Tuesday.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! That thing is TINY dude... I have small hands, but damn, I think that might be too small for me...
Yeah I think I'm gonna go with a bigger one.
TODAY: Moldings, targa, mirrors, door handles, side skirts PAINTED! All body sanded except for around the windsheild and between the rear window and targa area.

On the bad news I wrecked my dd today (fixable but pita), luckily my dad can loan me his Taurus.

Yup, coming around a wet turn going fast but nothing crazy....I thought. I turn the front end grabs and the rear slides (fwd wtf), no e brake no braking through the turn nothing. So I countersteer appropriatley, no use its in a straight sideways slide, I lock up the brakes and hold on. I ended up a curb and the rear slid into a tree. The damage is fixable in a weekend but its definatley a setback.
Cliffs: (My DD not Supra) Bad approach angle?, wet road, shitty tires up a curb into tree.

:rofl: You kids and your FWD
Can't say too much tho - got rid of the Miata and bought the wife a Saturn Ion Redline. FWD does suck, even when it's supercharged!
Don't you hate taking time away from the Supra, to work on your DD, though? Glad to hear you're ok!

I'm just glad it was a FREE car and yes glad I'm ok it could've been down in a ditch if not for that tree. If it wasn't worth anything I wouldn't even take the time to fix it lol. This car grabs so strong in the front and it showed, not to mention its such a short car if you don't counter correct in less than a split second and have a good grasp with the front tires your sliding.
The Ion any good? I heard they were fun.
