Old. Im back. Probably for a bit tho!

[Dan McBoost]

As some knows I am been all over the car universe, but recently two good friends came to me for supra projects they picked up and now I am chomping at the bit.

Ughs, the love is real.

Tossed a battery tender on the mk3 (and more) yesterday, lets go!

What's up! I still have one of your old pictures for one of my desktop backgrounds.

Hi, Dan!

 

[RazoE]

Welcome back!

 

[Dan McBoost]

Well then I ended up buying a (currently) newly rebuilt 588RWHP 7MGTE mk3 which will go into my MK3 after a few further upgrades (want to take to 700-800)

I will be un-ricing it. Fixing it up and dropping in one of my stock backup 7m's back in and selling it.

Once the weather breaks the fun will begin.

Nice.

Un-ricing...

Tears I tell ya

While I am keeping the engine and all such for my MK3, one of my parts cars and the black chassis is going to a local amazing painting owner that we are trading the cars for a mint paint job on my MR2. So, progress is going slow (working on my RN28 and Sequoia currently) but will be at least moving a couple of steps towards process for both of my supra and my MR2.

Well here we are.

Engine came out of the parts car a couple of weeks ago. I have a lot to do to get this where I want it to be, both in cleaning/powder coat/painting/etc and more mods.

Parts car chassis went to my buddy's shop (with the other mk3 chassis to make one good one).

Shuffled a bunch of things around my storage garage.

Brought my baby home.

Let the fun begin.

The garage time was fun after all!

From this past weekend:
It may have been in the teens outside yesterday, but I was happily working on the supra in the 60 degree shop for the first winter ever. The fuel tank is fully installed:

Pulled:

Fresh refurbished one:

Installed:

It was a good Sunday.

Next up last night:
After looking for the best non ethanol in the area, 91 is the best anyone has. For now, that works. I need to explore future needs.

Once I put the gas in, I tried and forgot the ECD fuse was blown. Replaced that and it fired right up and idled smooth as always.

Excellent, I love to see it. My 3 1/2yr old is starting to ask questions about "the car in the basement." It'll be time to start putting it back together in the next few years I hope.
