Thanks, I do have a couple updates.
I found the major A/C freon leak! The small line that runs under the radiator is held on by a bracket. If that bracket get rust grime on it, and corrodes, it can crack the small line. Mine is cracked all the way around.
The line is ruined. The dealer charges $5oo for both lines & the pressure sensor together as a special order package only, apparently.
The car is at the shop Thursday to get this replaced and hopefully charged back up. Gotta have A/C, it's been 100-106 here for the last several weeks now.
I noticed that there's plenty of room for an electric fan in front of the condenser. I just have to figure out how to mount one up.
I found a boost controller that I liked. AEM TruBoost. I haven't installed it yet because getting to the backside of the rear turbo is almost impossible.
I got an oil cooler kit to try out as well.

The A/C line was fixed, and the car is blowing real cold again! Like 50degrees!!
It's weird because the car seems to run slightly cooler on the temp gauge now with the A/C on, even in 102 sun on the way home. I'm still going to get a small elect fan hooked up.

Hey Ryan i had the same issues when i han this engine in my 92 SC ,so now i swapped that engine into my 95 SC and the ABS light is still on,
ON the 95 when you look on the botton of the Glove box there is a module with i think it's the ABS module and there is no plug going into that module since i am using the 1JZ GTE harness made for a 92SC

It's been awhile!
So the picture hosting company I've been using for over 5 years is finally having major issues...so that's why the pics aren't working right now!
Bummer cause I want to show you guys what I've been doing in my copious amount of free time...
To sum it up WITHOUT pics...
1. Full leatherseats.com interior set installed
2. Emanage Ultimate up and running finally!
3. Supra TT spare ftw!
4. trunk shocks
Got some other things to install...door panels, door brackets
If these folks don't get my pics up soon....I'll have to find someone else, and reupload all the pics so the thread will have the pictures...for CL..I'd do it! It's worth it...
