Say the guy whos taken over 3 weeks to do a single swap....EASY THUNDER! Dont hurt yourself.

it was around the holidays so i couldnt work on it constantly. family stuff ya knw. plus i was teaching myself along the way cause i couldnt get any help so yea.....pretty sure i could do it pretty quickly now if i did it again
 
well sad to say the 1j is getting sold on Friday. its something im not really wanting to do but im taking steps to secure my future. the money that i get from the sale will be going towards a down payment on a house...this doesn't mean the 1.5 will never get built just that it will have to wait till after im in a house of my own.


in other words this thread wont be getting to many updates for a bit
 
small little update on how things sit for now...

Congrats on the house man!

Some aggressive wheel fitment would compliment those brakes nicely! What's the goal for the setup?

thanks man, over all goal for this car now is a good dd with good power and ac. over the years it has gone through alot and now that im getting older all i want to do is enjoy driving my supra to work on Fridays or a Saturday night meet. the new motor will be a 1.5jz making roughly 500whp (dont want anymore or less) on e85. im hoping i can get the motor back out soon now that im in a house and can actually put it on a stand and assemble it. hoping early next year to have it back up...not holding my breath on that but thats the plan as of now
