Very nice man, very nice. That thing must be a blast to drive... I bet mine doesn't break 200 whp/tq until around 3k. Got a build thread on here?

Yup, hears is the build thread. http://www.supramania.com/forums/showthread.php?70498-Finaly-pics-of-the-swap I just updated it today with new interior pics, I might be starting a second build thread for my possible new engine and transmission build. 1GZ-FE + AWD RB26DETT drive train plus crazy = AWD 1GZ-FETT.

Hears a link to the 3 Dyno pull videos i uploaded to YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P937XOFXlfU&context=C364c6b7ADOEgsToPDskJkFMX4FWVFMPH4AtXkeOTD

Nice man, I'll have to take a look. 1GZ = 5.0 V12, if I remember correctly. You sir... might be a mad scientist if you can make that work.

Yeah, I like unique colors on valve covers. It was a toss up between that color and pearl white. I really liked the way purple pearl looked on my wife's old car, it really stood out...

^That is beautiful sir... I'm a little jealous. :)

Pics of the Celica? I'm guessing hardtop since it's a 73? I don't think we got the liftback until like 75 or 76...

Hey, even the coupes were pretty badass, and you're gonna have fun with that. Doesn't take much to make a 10 second street car with one. There is a build thread in "other cars" you might find interesting or inspiring. ;)
