also, pushed the car out of the garage to clean up the engine bay while i have the opportunity. a bit of simple green, a few rags, and a garden hose go a long way.

yeah i know the pics arent the best, but using the camera phone is fast and easy. so yeah.

thats all for now!

car will be running this weekend! new set of pics will follow shortly after that. and tear down of the old blown motor to see the extent of the damage will also be along in the near future

STAY TUNED!

the old motor is only a block, head and the accesory pulleys right now, so you would be able to tell:)

things left to do. put supra brackets on motor, finish replacing gaskets/seals, start putting stuff back together... put it back in the car, hook everything back up, fluids. then crank the bitch up and go beat the shit of it...

fun stuff

i havent driven mine in just about a month... not fun. before that i drive it basically everyday. during the week 60+ miles to work and school. weekends probably about 60 or so combined...

driving my moms expedition while the supra is not running is not cool at all... not to mention im having to foot the bill on it too. i put about 100 bucks in gas into the fucking thing over about 4 days. its pretty lame.

i dont even remember what the car sounds like or feels like when driving. guess we'll found out again tomorrow.

im going to bed now. have to take my mom to the airport at 4 in the morning aight peace :chicken:
