And the start of my NA-T Project Begins. First few parts started showing up and more on the way. Plus it helps having Elmhurst Toyota so close. Will Get this updated with some additional info soon. Some of the parts already should point in the direction the build is heading.

Keep us posted.

Question, why did you get a GTE cover if you're going NA/T? Are you planning on changing the intake manifold?

 

A budget of what? $20,000 lol lol jk looks good, post some more pics

 

I like everything is see in that picture lol, na-t ,distributorless, new TT oil pump, cam and crank sensors, crank cog.

More pics Jim thanks.

 

Hmmmm COP conversion nice

 

looks like a big budget

 

So I'm gonna assume your getting a FFIM? Whats your power goal?

 

Tabaka - Yep FFIM is on the way

97-SC300 - Trying to stay well under 8k completed. Almost 100% of the work to be done by myself. If anyone is interested I can post prices with my purchases to help others get an idea of my running total.

Jim

 

what HG are you using ? i see one in the pic....

 

I have an odd feeling, your budget is going in the trash quickly..looks like its going to be a good build though, keep us posted.

 

quickGS300 - Erastic Stock TT Headgasket 1.3mm a whole $50 buks shipped. Plenty of ppl on SF have used their gasket with great sucess.

turbodremz - That is for my total build including painting the car and rims. Again almost 100% of the work will be done by me and of course help from my fellow CL members and SF members. The only work I can't do would be my engine machine work. I have a friend that owns a CNC Machine shop. Bartering my IT skills for my machine work. I definately believe I can pull off the 8k budget. I already have priced everthing out and added some for incidentials.

Jim

 

Awsome man, where is il are you? Im in gurnee, definatly keep updating the thread with prices and pics.

 

Gunna be a nice looking build man good luck be sure to post a pic of that FFIM when it arrives

 

One Pic? Comon Jim that's not cool. Lets see what you got.
You should ask a mod to rename your thread jimmac79 build thread, post some more pics, and get this show on the road.

 

Definitely post prices, I picked up a 99 SC300 3 weeks ago and want to do an NA-T eventually and I would love to really see how much it costs to do it. Good luck with the build. Looks like it will be done right.
