That's mean. He'll be done by 8pm tonight.
Thanks, once as everything is set and done, I'm going to touch up on the paint some more and freshen up the black.Doat;1992845 said:

Lol I'd be done already if I didn't have to wait for the UPS man xD jk
I got the coil packs on and extended the 7m ignition wires. I found out one of my clips got melted a little bit from my overheating 7m >_>

Thanks! It's so close to being done, but it's hard for me to work on it due to school and work :/
From what my research tells me is that the bottom end is just as strong as a gte motor. With a good tune, this motor should be a lot more fun than the 7m >:]
Wicked Nice man! I always drop engines with the mani off, then put the wastegate on and bolt her up, much easier imo. Especially if you're like me and have it on jacks instead of a lift. That color is awesome! Love it!
Looks like your progress is coming along nicely and at a fast pace. Can't wait to see it done. Color looks great, not my favorite personality but it suits you and that's all that matters. Keep it up
I actually think that color is awesome. Just needs the 89+ treatment IMO but the color looks great. Definitely approve of JZ swap route too!
Update: I finally got the beast running after a year of saving and working on things I could while I was studying.
As of now I'm using the 7MGTE wiring harness, CPS, and the 440's(which are shitting on me right now). Most importantly I waited and saved for a standalone ECU, and I'm very happy I stuck with that decision.
My first engine swap is now a running success.

Since you're running the ms3 pro why not up run 1zz coils? They eliminate the igniter and with a simple bracket they bolt write up.. I have a extra set I could sell!
I'm definitely going to refine my ignition set-up for sure, the IS300 coils are my affordable alternative to get the car running.suprakidd;2048404 said:
Thanks man, I would have to agree. Definitely not your average Mk3.Dave46;2048416 said:
