I ordered a bunch of lines and adapters to make up my oil cooler/relocation kit, as well as the lines ill need for the big turbo im going to run. Heres a pic of the goodies.

And might i say, its a bit of work to get the hose ends on! it too all the strength i had to get some of them on the braided lines!

I decided to somewhat polish the intake runners, i figure it will help flow slightly, and i think it just feels good to do it. LOL i doubt much will come of it, but im sure it helps in some way. Its much smoother inside the runners now, it was very rough from the sand casting. Here's a few pics for fun. Im still learning how to use this new macro lens i got, so the pics arent too great. sorry!

Lower intake runner. May not look it, but it is smooth to the touch.

Upper intake mani.

More parts!!!! YAY!!!!!!

Were getting down to the good stuff now! I got my turbo manifold in yesterday. It looks pretty good, and feels solid. I also received the massive intercooler, and wastegate.

Heres some pics!

And an update on suspension, i just got done repainting the shocks to match the green sway bars i bought. What do you guys think?

Some more parts are on the way, ill post some pics when they get in.

Just got done ripping apart the whole front subframe. What a pain in the ass! I had to cut out the lower control arm bolts. Hopefully Jeff at Champion Toyota has a set for me...

I hope i can get the new bushings in by the weekend. I also picked up a reman, rack and pinion from a new buddy that works at Advance auto. No pics for now. Ill update when the new parts get in this week.
