Today got my third TT Denso pump for my triple pump setup . It came with a Supra hanger. I can use the hanger as spare for my supras or just resell it back on SF. It is a used pump but probably will seldom be used being the third pump and will come on only when am above 22 psi of boost.

Mang Gerry, your build is really coming along nice. your not slowing down at all..Keep it up.. I, myself need a MKiv throttle cable. If you have extra set laying around let me know. I also need to come by pick up that antenna motor.

Thanks Megamax. I guess all forums have their own positive and negative characteristics. Well you are lucky you were able to create another account on supraforums after your first was banned. Once mods notices the same IP address of your new and old account are same, your new one will be shut down too not unless you talk to a mod and give them a good reason. I guess it all depends on why the first account had been banned.
Well I love my Supra MKIVs. Definitely rare cars. Seldom you see them on the road. Thats why even if you had an NA, people think , "damn that is a freaking fast car" ...lol .. when in fact, the MKIV NAs have exactly the same engine with the SC300s. MKIV prices are soaring due to the demand and availability specially of 6 speeds. People want an arm and a leg for them.
Right now, on this sc400 2jzgte swap , I believe I wanted to go automatic . I wanted a cruiser and at the same time one that will support my ego on the streets when the occasion calls for it. I already have a weekend warrior on my 6 speed Supra built single turbo so I dont need to have another 6 speed. I always wanted a twin aftermarket turbos setup which I am seriously considering for this SC400 just for the sake of having one. A single turbo is a more economical setup and easier to maintain but I simply love the idea of having aftermarket twins. Will see how it goes. I don't want to throw a lot of money on this car. As I said before , they are always a money pit.

Too much money in it already that slowing down will not do me any good. It's just the time I need to manage well so I can get it going continuously. I know I have another MKIV throttle , let me check around the garage. Just give me a notice when you want to drop by to get that antenna.

. I know how it feels collecting all those parts.. the excitement that comes with it ... though I know our pockets are not always happy . But hey , we deserve to have toys for our hard work.

Today I decided to work on my -8 an teflon return line. Damn ..
I hate these braided stainless teflon lines. You get pricked so much that you get your fingers swollen after... 
I had to cut around 3/4 the lenght of the car from the 50 foot line I had ..

Under the trunk it ends with a 90 degree end hose to the bulkhead fitting. As you can see, I used a 90 degree fitting especifically for teflon lines.. those summit racing fittings I previously pictured are not the best for teflon lines. They don't have the brass ring inside the fitting that actually hold on to the braided steel. Take note that teflon fuel lines are a bit smaller in diameter compared to the regular rubber hose lines.

or I can install the fuel regulator which I already have . Damn, I thought, I already have all the fittings I need for my swap. Apparently not ... I had to order a lot more today and these will nickel and dime you . They add up really quick !
