jason w? whats up man. i was wondering what happen to you and if you still had your sc.
im not too sure on how much justin charges to do a full autronic setup....i can ask him though. what kind of motor and mods you plan on doing?
i have an autronic sm4 and hks dli already.....so just need him to make the harness for me. if you can wait maybe a month to month and a half, you can check out the harness he does and see how it comes out.
but in any doubt, ill ask him for some prices and ill get back to you.
so whats the haps on your sc?

I sold the sc I had from before when i bought your sp1's. I was looking into buying another one though. Kinda board driving a truck everyday.
I am not too sure what engine and mods I want to do just yet until I find another sc. I'll get back to you on that.
Good luck with the build and i will definately want to see it when its all done. shoots

haha, i was wondering when somebody was going to catch that 
. although this is going to be my daily.....or atleast suppose to be, i run modified thermostats in my car. ive had them in my 1jz s14, 400+whp sr20's or any other car that i drove hard. before someone chimes in and says that i need it, i just prefer to run with it modified. ive been doing so for over 5 years and never had anything bad ever happen and will continue to do so 
. as far as that water feed line goes, ill check to see how much flow i get. if it seems like there isnt much water flow......there is another port which i have tapped and capped, that i can use.
here in hawaii, it doesnt ever get cold and the weather is almost always hot.

update.......
i ordered a tial 44mm wastegate to replace the ebay knockoff that is on there right now. maybe its just me, but i dont trust a $100 wastegate to handle about 30psi of boost and risk thousands of dollars in damage. a little bit of a delay since i have to wait for it to get in, but better safe than sorry. alls i have to do is pull the manifold and weld on a new flange. im still waiting on the sard top feed rail, so in a sense its not preventing me from the installing the engine.
im also debating if i should install some hks cams and build the valve train. im not sure if it will be worth it for this street engine because i am also building a race engine on the side.
hhmmm, your right. plan B, imm gonna redo the feed line. damnit, even more money spent, lol. damn fittings and nylon hose add up real fast 
trd - i got my racks from go bananas on kapahulu. i longboard and paddle board alot, so all my cars have hard racks.....all of them. the rack itself is pretty good. took about an hour to install and ive had 4 boards strapped on....all of which were about 10' long and we were doing 60mph on the freeway. everything held good and we didnt lose any boards.

Im not understanding how a modified thermostat has anything to do with your coolant lines. The nipple to the right of the pipe you tapped on the water pump is the oem feed for the stock turbos. You notice it's before the thermostat so the turbo still get coolant while its closed. I guess it doesn't really matter once the cars warmed up .

i usually hit up the town area and sometimes makaha. when the winds are calm and the water is flat, the diamond head to alamoana paddle is nice. hopefully this summer there will be alot of waves on the south shore. hopefully my build doesnt slow down now that im back into jiu-jitsu training. im trying to get ready for the world championships coming up in june.
back to the build. im still waiting on my sard top fuel rail to come in from japan, tial 44mm wastegate and some random parts. everything should be here by this friday and i should be able to have the motor ready to drop in by next week.

sorry for not posting up pics. been really busy with my 2 jobs and jiu jitsu. i was able to get a lot of stuff done though.
-sard rail came in and its awesome. everything fits like a glove and with all my engine painted black, the gold looks nice.
-720cc injectors installed as well as the aeromotive fuel pressure regualator. all lines are done with earls black nylon lines and black and silver fittings. its going to be a dual feed and single return set up going to a apexi gtr fuel pump.
-i cut off the fakey wastegate flange and ditched the cheapy wastegate. welded on the tial 44mm flanges and got the whole waste gate setup done. at 30psi, i will feel alot more comfortable with a tial.
-hks bov welded on
-i added more metal on the turbo manifold i have. made a brace going from wastegate runner to number 6 cylinder runner. also added more metal on some welds that looked "soft"
-changed 6spd trans gear oil with toyota v160 oil. this stuff is really thin and doesnt stink like the cheap gear oil, lol
-installed a black turbo blanket......goes well with all the black engine stuff
-i also plugged all the water/coolant outlets that run around the engine. instead of using rubber caps, i welded them shut, thus eliminating anyh chances of leaks.
i was able to get all of that done in about 2 days. at this point the motor is ready to drop in the sc. im just waiting for a friend to get his car out of a stall so i can bring my car in and pull the out the old engine.
hopefully i can get the motor in by next week.....being that i only have 2-3 days a week to work on it and only a few hours at a time. when the engine is in, i can finish up some stuff such as.....
-install the motor and trans
-intercooler piping and a custom hot pipe for the turbo
-run all the vacuum lines
-install the supra TT rear sub frame
-install TT brakes
-get the driveshaft done
-install pedals and lines
-install radiator and fans
-hook up the ac
-and get started on the autronic custom harness
im pretty happy with all the progress and things are coming along well. i have the camera loaded with pics, but i might as well wait til i can get more stuff to show.

If that is the SS Autochrome Manifold then you may have to cut and change the wastegate and dump piping to fit properly in the firewall. I had to change the angle of mine and make my own dump tube because I didn't want it pointing at my oil pan. yikes. Let me know if you want some pics.
