Update time!
After 2 months of waiting and $350 in fees later I finally got my Turbo, Wastegate and BOV today. Turbo's exhaust housing wasn't ceramic coated like it was supposed too and they sent me a silver wastegate instead of red. I assume I can buy a new housing in red for the wastegate, anyone want to trade or point me in the direction of a new one? I will be making the company that fucked up pay for it .
Enough ranting, here are some pics I took.
This was my order from PHR.
My AEM Uego was sent to Canada for some unknown reason too... One day things will work out I'm sure, just not when my car is involved... Expect lots more pictures of the turbo over the next few days .

though I dont really get the difference between narrow body and normal body supras, I just don't see which is narrower Are only the fenders different or the whole body?

Nice work Glen. If you're interested my clutch is coming out in a few months when i pull the motor and put the twin plate in. It's not brand new but it was holding up ok with the ~250rwkW i was making...
Wouldn't want much for it, but its a hell of a job if it doesn't last long

Sorry just saw this now, what clutch do you have at the moment? I'm also looking for a twin plate or something to hold around 350rwkw or more with a potential super secret upgrade on its way

Thanks
.In more news I have run into another week of delays with chroming. Hopefully work can start late this week. In the past few weeks this is all I have gotten done
.
Quite some time since my last update and nothing new to really report... I bit the bullet and decided to pick up a standalone a few weeks back. Also picked up a TTC fuel rail and 680cc injectors to replace the 2jz 440's as I don't think they will be up to the task.
EMS Stinger+ DM PnP harness
This weekend I finished my frankencluster too, well kind off. I still need to find some gauges that will look nice and have a green backlight to go with the speedo and tacho. The tacho is from an early model GA70, I didn't like it at first but it has grown on me, I guess having those extra lines might come in handy...
Just wondering if anyone knows where I could order a new clear cover for the cluster, MUST be RHD. I'm too lazy to look right now, if someone wants to tell me that would be great.
I got the first half of my chromed parts, after getting screwed around for close to two months and been told last week everything was finished...

Not sure how many they made but Toyota special ordered a new batch for me last year on the Clear cluster cover.
Sorry didn't really pay attention at the time.
Don't let them pull the NLA (no longer available) shit
Most parts are it's just they don't show in Australia.
