still driving today. i think the trans build is a complete success at this point. gonna change fluid but i gotta order my redline. anyone that actually knows redline wanna tell me which kind to get. anything better for bashing?
trans went in at 6 am this morning (after working all night assembling) started around 5pm and had it on the ground about 1130.
has anyone done a trans rebuild and hear a gear whir in neutral with clutch out? i passed it as it just needed oil to sling into everything and clean any dirt that...
another supra potentially saved.
got my trans installed! my problem before was 5th gear thrust washer split in half due to improper notch seating after beating on counter shaft. i searched "r154 5th gear thrust washer" under shopping on google and some jeep parts popped up. this is when i...
looks really good man, i like that color a lot...but if i were to nit pick anything it would be the "supra mk3" decal. and the exhaust looks like its sticking out a little bit but nothing to really complain about...the stance more than makes up for it, nicely done
agreed, even on some colder nights 50*'s ill leave the top off with the windows up and im still fine.
a/c is gonna be the next headache...BUT no where near the battle ive been through. i have my cfc12 license so i can buy r12. never done it before so ill have to search up on it but i plan to...

just broke my 5th gear thrust washer while assembling my r154. epc says 10-15 bucks but ill check on availability and see how much longer its gonna be on the stands. makes me wanna cry im so frustrated.
i started tapping the "spline" onto the countershaft (last piece holding 5th gear before...
fml...in a good way i guess...my trans parts came in today.
now i gotta wrap up the rest of the bumper (waiting for primer to set up so i can scuff and shoot some color/clear. then tonight at work ill press everything back on the main shaft and start solving the rest of the massive puzzle. if...
agreed...it wasnt uber easy to reinstall mine but it wasnt frustrating enough to spend 150+ for a soft line kit just because of it. fuck that shit.
