I now you would Noah without a doubt. But as with before, I like to try things myself, and scream for help if I get outmatched. Ask Schaeff, this has been my case with the wiring on this one. I would never have made it without his help. It's not complete yet, but I know where everything goes...

Actually Ken, my tank was much cleaner than expected. I had planned on taking it and cleaniing it out, but I couldn't see anything in the tank. It was grey all they way across the bottom. i do see what you are talking about on the pump though. It looks like the pump itself was deteriorating a...

I'm only guessing HP will be somewhere between 350-450. I really want 400, just because it's a nice number. I have no real idea, because of the turbo that I got from Jay. From that how to upgrade your car thread, I have everything to get me to 380BHP, and a little bit more. From there it says...

Sweet! But please tell me that piece of grille isn't missing for intake reasons. I didn't like that on the MKIV's, but have never seen it on our cars. Also, are you related to the photographer Duane???????? All the way to Aussie land?

Vonda, I think you should have a sticker made similar to the Supra Mania logo stickers that I was giving out at Chicago. It should be your name as seen in your signature in purple. You should apply it just over your driver door handle.

I think you can use the stock wiring, except for the two wires in the tank. It is said to be better to run the Walbro with a 12V relay to get it the most power you can. Maybe that is why the smaller pump can do so much more. It wants a good tune...........but it may get it's gift a week or...

Here's a few pictures of today's progress: Here is my tank out of the car! Took less than an hour to get it out. I sat and read my Walbro instructions after draining the gas to let things air out. Then I took another break as I let some PB Blaster soak into the fuel line. It did the job, and...

I'm not sure that the MKIII is equipped to handle the power of a V

Wow! I really like the two tone with white. That dark grey looks good, especially if you got it done the factory grey. Those pics really make those stripped sawblades look (dare I say) Great!

I'll be back in about an hour to post some install pictures. It is about 80% finished, but the dark came and ran me off.

OK, I'll quit crying now! I won't make y'all have to hear it. Seriously, when I went to Chicago, I had to choke back tears when I saw that beautiful grey car at the first event. I can't remember his name right now, but he certainly deserves credit. I will update this post as soon as I...

It's not in yet, but I am about to eat lunch and run to the parts store to get a fuse to do my wiring on it. I will be doing it as soon as I get that done. Hopefully it will be finished today. I think I am going to take pictures the whole way, and get that posted. I have had a hard time finding...

Not a bad idea V. It doesn't sound like you can trust much from your last build. That pump could have 200,000 miles on it. At you house I would also recommend you go back with a metal head gasket. I know how both of you guys think. Sooner or later you're gonna need it. Just be sure your surfaces...

Spoken like a true professional! Matt, if you ever get bitten by the turbo swap bug, take a look at Ken's build thread, and stick to your original plans of just buying a turbo car instead.

It's easy as hell to skip a plan to lay under the car. My least favorite part of working on my car is jacking that son of a bitch up and getting stands placed. What you had planned requires jacking up both ends of the car for VERY little actual work. You may as well break loose the fuel lines...

It doesn't snow down here, and that's why Jake is being able to work on that big job to make the money to finish this thing. I can't wait either, but building the power Jake wants with the quality of what we have seen so far does take a good bit of cash. I myself am feeling this crunch right now.

GOOD NEWS! I did find the pump ::dunce:: Not only is the old saying "in the last place I looked" wrong, but it actually was in the FIRST place I looked! The box it was in had several extra silicon couplers in it, and I just didn't look far enough into the box. It wasn't until the third time...

Titus, Jay is old............but no way is he that skinny! I think that's Dave! He's always trying to steal Jay's women. Ya, that's the THINGS Dave does. EDIT******Things as in actions.........not calling you a thing V
