Well another little update, the car now starts with out a wire coming off the starter to the battery yay… come to find out all of my friends wiring was correct its just that the previous owner of the car or maybe somebody before who owned the car cut the ignition harness and did a shitty job trying to repair it, so that connection came apart so I had to repair it.

Im a little frustrated because I was suppose to buy intercooler piping this week but I had to pay bills so looks like going to Vegas this year just got dimmer…

I also half to put my car together after tarring the gauge cluster out and the steering column cover off to test connections so looks like ill be spending the next few days piecing my interior back together yay…

I haven’t had the chance to put my new slave cylinder on and bleed my clutch so looks like by this weekend I may have everything back together…

I want to finish buttoning up my supra before I place my time else where, right now I believe my girl friend hates me because I haven’t spent much of anytime with her so I dono how much longer she’s going to deal with this I’m getting tired of spending so much time working on my car myself but I want to finish it up as fast as I can.

Well that’s it for my bitching :)

well once the car is done, your G/f bitching at you wont bother you as much......LOL
If she leaves you for your car at least your car wont leave you......:evil2:

j/k my friend, keep up the work, you are on the home stretch..!

WOOT! Clint, I haven't kept progress of this thread (infact, this is the first time I've looked at it), but you've done an awesome job. If we ever meet one of these days, you're giving me a ride. I say you go to TX2k8. ;)

Well I guess I forgot to add a finished update well some what finished but still going at it! haha

I wasn't able to make it to vegas with my supra but went with out it because the hydro pump failed when I was leaving town.

Here is a finished pictures of the engine bay :) for now

But she is down again :( I had to send back the ecu and throttle body back to a friend who I was barrowing them from.

So the next step is to save for a stinger ECU and some 640-720cc injectors ;) I am also debating on switching out my HKS bov for maybe a Greddy Type R or maybe a Tial I'm not sure...

My thoughts exactly! I was also unaware of this thread, but will be reading it all tonight.

TX2K8......C'mon Clint! Me and Noah89T drove 16 hours from the Mississippi coast to Chicago this year, and had a blast. I'm planning on being at Texas too, and hopefully with my finished car (with fresh, not PS paint).

Sweet car man. How do you like that turbo with the 1jz? How is the powerband with it?
Im not sure how long my ct12a's will be lasting me so Im trying to see what all the options are.

Sounds about perfect. Ive had a few cars with quite a bit of lag before, and Im trying to stay away from that. I think the stock twins hit 12 psi before 3k, so Im enjoying that while they last.

Updates for me........Please. I just read this whole thread and your build looks awesome. I'm thinking about getting the manifold like you have but I've got to find a four whole flange for my HKS wastegate.

I too am driving to Texas. Hopefully I'll be in a 1.5 instead of my 1jz. Who knows?

UPDateS for favor....!

The car is running awesome I got my oil leak from my return line fixed! the car sounds very exotic from the compliments I have recived alot of people say it almost sounds like a crotch rocket haha.

I bought an SAFC II and Im still running MKIV 440 injectors @ 7psi I hope to get her on the dyno soon that way I can tune her a little and hopefully put down 400rwhp :) and then Ill be moving on to some bigger injectors and a Dual walbro intake setup and then crank the boost up as much as I can!

I love the manifold, I actually got it from drewgo and like I said it gave my car an exotic sound to her, she doesn't sound like any supra I have ever herd, hopefully I can get some good video of her soon in action.

I believe you can get a HKS style from either HKS or from Aaron from driftmotion.

zerocool, did you make the bracket for your afpr? the bracket my aeromotive came with makes my fpr hit my hood

I didnt make my bracket Its the same one that came with the MKIII AFPR kit for the 7M, all I did was rearrange the pieces of the bracket to make it fit like it does on my car.

Thank you everybody for the kind words :) I was able to do this swap not only for under 5k but in a time frame of 6 months total and thats finding all the parts to put the hole thing together :).

Many thanks to Drewgo, Jose from Kaizen motorsports, Aaron from driftmotion, and the Azsupra community and friends for help and support!
