Doing great man! Keep going strong !
Am I seeing this right you're going to bolt up a mkIII supra r154 to a 2jz? Is that a straight swap or an apdapter needed? Also are you going to have to trim the tranny tunnel or is it going to fit in the original shifter opening in the tunnel?
Looking awesome!

Thanks man. To use an mk3 R154 you need a 1jz flywheel and bellhousing the shifter rod and housing need to be extended and the driveshaft needs to be modded. No modding the trans tunnel. Once its all done the shifter should sit in the same spot as factory.

Did you ever put in the boost gauge on the same panel as the wideband gauge?

Not yet Mang kinda got excited doing other things. So I still need to do that. Its been a busy past few weeks. Trying to finish other projects while doing my own car is fun but it will get done. The summer officially starts soon and I most definitely want to have my car ready to cruise.

Thanks Joel, I'm pretty happy with the color I'm glad it doesn't look like the champagne gold. And I will definitely have more pics soon.

Started mocking up the intercooler today and replacing all the rusty bolts, tapped all the bolt holes in the bay and started putting everything back where it belongs. Still debating the abs delete...
