Under The Knife Again...

getting itchy i see... oh well theres always next winter right?

Same here, I think I'm just going to turbo my GE. I let this Supra go that I wanted, which I shouldn't have, and I can't find another one. I'm not going to fork over the cash that people want just for the motor and tranny, when I can strip down an entire car for cheaper, BUT all the Turbo cars are starting to come around the shop now from Winter, and I'm getting anxious.

Manifold looks gorgeous AJ. I need to rebuild my bottom end before I turbocharge, so I'm just going to jet/hot coat everything before it gets put back together. I don't need aftermarket forged. I can basically get the same amount of power out of the engine without them, (with the semi-stock fuel system) just takes smart building. So saving money on both ends.

600 ponies no prob. drop compression with mhg and rock it on a 73.

roughed in, needs some more stuff, but here it is so far. drives well but needs a retune. otherwise, vacuum is good, low boost is great but can't get a high boost pull. Will drop it with a tuner next month.

so here's wat we got... still fun as all get out...

that's a decent amount of progress in 2 months for working a 55 hour a week plus day job... not to mention all of life's little other hassles. not that its anywhere near finished. But here's perspective. back on page 1 with all the corrosion, that's all resolved as well as several oil issues. Now tighter than a drum. Just need a new tune...

for perspective, or somewhat, those silver vein pipes are hott, can't wait to do the intake manny in a candy...

looking good AJ ;)

that second pic looks like what would happen if you parked up in some of the worse parts of Liverpool (except it would also be propped up on 4 bricks!) :D

I think I could probably make decent money doing that as well if I were so inlined. Fortunately, I'm above that.

Lots more in store...
