You didn't change the headgasket or anything right ?? Also did you check the bearings for any damage or anything ??

It's a little more that I thought, but I tried not to cut corners. Beside no rebuild. I might do a full rebuild later.
Looking like some good progress. It costed me 6.5K when I was done and that was with a 5 speed swap and not including the single. So your doing pretty good! You still need to do IC piping, intercooler, clutch fan setup, bov, and exhaust mock up? Also did you get the oil pressure hose from Driftmotion so you can run the stock oil pressure gauge?
Thanks.
Yes sir, and the ps line also. I have all of that from my 1jz set up. I also have my his drager exhaust. I could only image what the total number would be if I still needed all that stuff. I might have some questions for you about deleting some of the vacuum lines.

You delete them all HAHA but seriously you only need the one for the map sensor, to fpr, then your BOV and your wastegate lines, and your boost gauge. Thats it. going single gets rid on them all 
Cool that what I need to know. Thanks.
I got a shipment in from driftmotion today with the rest of my parts. Most importantly my timing belt so that I can button up the engine.

In a holding pattern waiting on parts...All i can do are the valve seals and prep the car for the engine.
Finally got the release hub bearing assembled, and installed the flywheel, clutch kit, and transmission. I thought I would be done by mid October...... Oh well.
Looking good. Make sure you have the clutch disc in the correct way. You don't want to pull all of it back down due to a backwards clutch disc like someone we know. :icon_redf
Lol yeah it had a sticker on it, but it fell off. So I put it on the way I thought it was suppose to go...... Then I verified that I put it on the wrong way
. Good thing you and David put it on the wrong way, it made me double check.
Iboightasupra, where do the brackets go? As you probably know there are six holes is it the four to the front or back of the engine?

I supposed you are taking about the engine brackets. I am using the OEM 1JZ brackets in my 88, since the previous owner changed the subframe to a 89+ round mount frame.

Oh man its been awhile. I lost my motivation, but now I'm back on it. I plan on dropping engine in next week. I have to do some soldering and some fabrication. Maybe have her running by March. Anyone else ever just plan lost their motivation?
Ya I have lost it lately. I wake up in the morning all like "I'm gonna work on my car today!". But as soon as I look out the window, it's -10 and snow everywhere. "Screw that I'm not going out there" hahah.
