update!!!!

well since still can't get my daily corolla started. or more like haven't had the time to. the mid-life crisis car known as the sc has taken up the task of daily driver. thanks to the high 4x4 stance it currently has it's been able to manuver and get by the current snowfall that has happend so far.

still some quirks, but all in all the car is growing on me more. hit the scale today and with almost a full tank and me weighed.

-3,720lbs.

and whenever i pull off this damn thing makes a noise!!




thought about cutting it off. but ill try to bend it first.


other than that the real bane with this car, aside from the rear tires that i need to replace(with the rear supra tt wheels). is the apparent fuel mileage.

apples to apples. the rb-s13 had 3 GALLONS LESS tank capacity. but gets the same as this car. even staying in vacuam and off the boost yields min results.





luckily for now, because of the fiscal cliff gas is "sudo" cheap so the pain is still felt(like **** rape). but not bad(as gang bang).

so it's winter and as an adult with no snowblower, and no subaru, i hate the snow.





shoveling sucks, but has to be done(i need a subaru).


heres a recent pic of the engine and my new breather valve.





and here i am cleaned up at the wash. rocksalt is a cars worse enemy. and looks like iam doing x2 car washes a week.

Default still, no beats!!!

so day,who knows and still no sound in my damn car. apparently iam not cool enough to snag a sc with all the damn amps in the back. so i drive around with no sound(sucks ballz). so looking for a sc400 unit. i stumbled uppon a ls400 cd changer and amp from the same year as mine. and it is a nak as my car stereo.

these plugs go to the cd changer





and these go to the car





anyone know if a ls400 amp will work?? has anyone out there in tv land tried one?? ive seen some nak sc400 amps online. but some are iffy to just damn wild in price.

Cant answer the ls400 question. Works case that happens is you burn up your car.. lol. I wouldn't try it. This is the first time I have seen your swap complete. I remember when you first pulled the V8 OUT. Keep the 4x4 status until you get through the snow. Car has come a long way from the beginning.

here is how i got it, found it on craigslist got it shipped for a steal. apparently it was rebuilt/new.






has new looking shiny parts on it. butt......





looks like salt water imo.


heres what it looked like after i took the polish wheel to it.





iam going to disassemble the rest of it and clean it up as iam suspect if this is really balanced?? no shaft play and it's not touching the housing, but better safe than sorry.

i was also told this had a t3 housing butt......





curses foiled again. what to do??? get one of these.

-inner blade-



-outer blade-
