Why?

i used a jdm because my supra is my daily driver and i could not afford to have it down. so i slowly worked on the jdm, makeing sure everything was down right. then we took two days to change everything out. now im working on the stock 7mgte, and that will be my back up.

Call me a safety nut; but, I would pull your fuel line as far away from your alternator connection as possible.

Arcs, sparks, and fuel is NOT a good combo! ;)

Otherwise, it's lookin SUWEEEEET! :)

That is a very good point, I will make that safe in the morning.

thanks for looking Kenny!
