Pics? I'd like to see the bodywork as well. Looking great so far.

Bogwon- Do you ever sleep?? lol. Grandavi- Great, you're scaring me now. As for the bov, I don't intend to recirculate, since I'm using a MAFT pro, so that's one headache I can avoid. As for the pipe fitment, I'll have to wait till I get the turbo mocked up to see how much has to be fixed.

I added a low oil pressure switch to my block, so that it'll light up any time i fall below 5psi.

Quads make a few thousand ft-lbs of torque?? My supra only made about 250. No wonder ATV's are so popular... :)

Today, I put a motor in it.

Umm, wires look great. But, maybe touch up that radiator support? My eyes are drawn straight to it.

I have XXR 502's on my car, and haven't had any trouble with them, but just like Crisp- I don't go nuts on them at all. I just saw a new style XXR that I really like. They remind me a bit of Rota's, but they are 5 spoke instead of 6, which I greatly prefer. DEEP dish. 18x8.75 +20 is about...

Seriously? Thanks for the suggestion- that might come in handy soon!

Don't hold your breath. I predict(based on progress so far, instead of high hopes) that it'll be running in about 3 months, driveable in about 9 months. Grandavi- heare's a few pics of the upper pipes. I noticed that on the Ebay listing for this type of IC kit, there are two pics of the...

Hmm, ok. But for now...how bout some pics? Engine.....IN. I TOLD you all I'd put some sweet, sweet hurtin' on this car this week. I ain't wasting time. LOL. All went pretty smooth, but I realized that the hoist wasn't lifting high enough to let me get the motor off the stand, so...

The newest stuff:

Good progress. Did you put the rebuilt turbo in it already?

Well, I'm finally back "from the dead". I have returned to the U.S., and was greeted by a number of small packages at my door: Earl's oil billet thermostat, TRD oil cap, M6 gold anodized titanium bolts, 10 gauge fuel pump wire. Tomorrow, I have to drive down to UPS and pick up my DM intercooler...

Ironically, i have both midnight blue front fenders sitting in may garage, but i need them for my grey car.

Yup. Ive never heard of any usdm mkIII having an oil light.

Im not sure which union you're talking about. Is this union the port on the backside of the rear timing cover??

Werd. Oops-correction; i think that's actually a pic of Ash from the windmill scene in the sequel, Army of Darkness.

Lol no! That's Bruce Campbell, aka "Ash" from Evil Dead, right when he snapped and went temporarily batty. If you haven't seen the original, rent it- its hilarious. Here's an accurate picture of me:

+1. Good start, and i hope to see some good progress.

I pieced together my own 7/16 kit, when i realized that DM charges close to $29 in shipping on that kit. I purchased black oxide hardened studs, ground/hardened washers, 7/16 helicoil kit, and self-locking exhaust nuts for about $50 total shipped. Problem was, i had to piece the whole setup...
