Thanks Hotts I appreciate you gracing us with your presence. That oiling system took way too long to put together. But I wanted it just the way I wanted it. I just got too picky and everything. I welded up another bracket for my filters so I can copy this system on my NA soon to be Turbo car...
Well I broke down and ordered my valve bucket shims after trying every avenue to come up with a cheaper replacement. These thing are rediculoulsy outrageous! The local dealership wanted between $8 and $9 per shim. I ended up getting them from Champion (Jay Marks) Toyota. Ended up figuring to...

ok...
hmmm August. I MIGHT actually be done by then. LMAO. I cant believe my car has taken as long as it has. I have a new found respect for a frame off restoration, or like Dave here with all this new stuff and fabrication. I thinks hes making great timing.
I think im right as I checked my JZ PP that I have and it looks like how I put mine together. I will post a pic anyway, as I always like a second opinion. Im not sure you will be able to see the thrust cone spring installed as my camera doesnt take good close ups. How did you know yours was...
