LOL Quick your so right about that. I had every chance and i failed on that one big time. I will tidy it up tho for sure. Will do it for the overhaul (single turbo, R154, diff, standalone)etc..

Latest:
I need an igniter, supra tt fan (hits water neck) no surprise at all and boost solenoid! Also have to address power steering.

fun times

Question? Can i just get the blade and use my oem sc300 clutch fan assembly? How can i address the broken JDM boost solenoid? Simple as getting a Boost controller? Just kicking around ideas

Thanks in advance all

^^^ yes you can get just the TT fan blade and use the Sc300 clutch. I ran into the same problem because i installed the 6 speed dampner.

Ignitor - waiting on my guys @ the shop to see if they can get from the local Toyota dealer and price compare to what i've seen. Found the ignitor for $200 online so if they can get from the dealer for a similar price then they'll get it for me if not then i'll order and have it sent 2-3 day. For the boost i'm thinking will convert to true tt and connect a boost controller to the first wastegate. Will also order fan blade today. That should be it hopefully

Hello gents, Power steering setup question. Is the easiest path just to use a Supra TT reso with my sc300 pump for this swap? I'm providing everything for my mechanic so to make as easy as possible. Been hitting little snags here and there as expected.

Thanks in advance,
Highway

I'm sure that is the easiest route. I used an sc400 res on mine and had to come up with some custom hoses to make it work. It was quite a pain. I also used an aristo pump because the sc300 pump had the res built in.
