hehe,

I'm not too fond of my truck shifter...
I haven't really looked into short shifters, but what about the SOGI mod?

fuckin sweet!
where'd ya find that?!
clean it up and wax her or something, make it shine!

Well, I guess I didn't find it personally. My friend pulled it off a car at pick n pull a while back and couldn't use it, so he gave it to me. It threads, so it's getting used. It's a very comfortable knob. :)

It's simple, but I like it. lol

(Yes, I installed my new license plate frame on a car with expired tags and no engine... I paid the registration. I just don't have the tags yet. :D)

It looks like this project is being put on hold for a few more weeks as I just picked up another Supra. My truck that I have been driving is near death, and I need to get my new toy daily-driver ready before I can focus on my beast again. Oh well, it just means that once I get back to it, I'll have parts waiting around to be installed and the progress will happen faster. :)

Yeah, it's a GE, but it's pretty. :D

And oh yeah, I found a home for my knob in my new Supra. :D (Ignore the mats)

I've been thinking exactly the same thing... but please don't encourage me! lol I need something stock and reliable for commuting to school next semester. It may become the 2nd beast at some point in the future. :) For now, intake, maybe an exhaust, and a tasteful drop.

Finally, an update!

The engine has been cleaned up a bit more, and the transmission is all bolted up. I put the 7M oil pressure sender on there so that my stock guage will work and I secured it with a little insulated bracket. I just need to swap waterpumps and refinish the valvecovers.

The wiring harness hasn't even been started on yet, but I'm hoping that with the help of a friend who knows what he's doing, we can get it knocked out this weekend. Maybe a startup soon? :D
