Thank you. More good things on the way.

Are you still using the stock fuel tank? What will you be doing for a hanger and intank pump?

Still using the stock fuel tank. A denso internal pump is attached to the oem hanger.

Are you still using the stock hardline on the hanger?
Would that create a restriction in the system, or does the surge tank negate that issue?

I think i'm gonna use some ideas here for my fuel system. I'm not liking the way it is now.

The internal pump uses factory lines. The external pumps drawing fuel from the surge pump ensures that there is ample fuel to the motor.

Got it, thanks!
Seems much simpler than modifying the stock hanger and all that mess...

Engine bay painted.
Valve covers powder coated texture.
Intake manifold: some welds grinded down, polished, brush finished, then powder coated with satin clear.

Turbo is actually not that big. 67mm compressor and just .68 A/R. Thanks! Gte.

Realising that this is definitely not built to be a dyno queen... That turbo looks very nice. Shooting for 450+?

Reserving my "OMG" remarks until I see them on a monitor... lol

Finish date?

 

[Doat]

hahaha that's a funny question to ask about a build

 

[rodel]

Finish date?

I wish I could say, Kyle. Every deadline has been missed

Builds dont always go as planned, but should be finished in a reasonable amount of time, despite delays. This project is long overdue.

Oh I know that I was poking fun at the question because I've never seen a build be completed by the estimated time by a long way lol.

 

[hvyman]

Hopefully soon then lol.

Brought my other car down this weekend.

Mines 2 years overdue. Probably be finished in another 2 years. Always something to improve...

Really like your orange touches. Very sharp

When are you going to finish the "new" Supra?

While constant improvement is good practice, changes to the project eventually have to end, else the project will never get done.



Thanks! The orange that you see in the picture is actually red.
