Well....my picture hosting provider went down again....epically this time...hopefully they restore the service at some point. I'd hate to have to go through this thread and figure out what all the pictures were!

97-SC300

What happened to all the pics? There are 23 pages and not a single picture. I feel deceived.

EDIT: Man that sucks. I hope they sort it out because they killed your thread.

I'm giving villagephotos until the end of the year. If he can't get it together by then I'm going to start reuploading the photos since I have them all on my computer still.


Anyways!

I just picked up and installed this 97+ front cover on Saturday. I couldn't pass it up due to the price and condition!

It came with the grill and I'm picking up the fog lights this coming week.

I'm going to add one of those small foam lips they sell on Ebay as well.

And No, the paint doesn't match, but I'll have it paint matched in 2012 along with my Sc400 rear spoiler(finally) I'd like to have the entire car painted 1997 green pearl to match the 97+ front cover actually! Ha!

Looks good! How is the 1jz holding up still? Do you beat it to death or just normal drive it?

I'm daily driving it about 40-50miles a day. I do get into boost most everytime I drive it, but mainly I just drive it as you would a normal car.

That's why I like it so much!

SANman1911

Looks damn good!

Of course a set of rockin' spinners like I had on my Sunfire would round it out nicely!

Any more updates on the car? Any luck on the picture uploads?

It look's like I'm gonna have to re-upload ALL of the photos!

I'm currently knee deep installing a single turbo kit on the Supra. When I get the Supra running, I'll start uploading pics again.

I did tinker with the Sc300 today though.

Mobil1 oil change!

Give er' the good stuff.

I was inspired so I semi-detailed the engine bay and I finally re-fitted the stock plastic piece that sits above the ac condenser. Back when I did the swap I bought the mk3 supra radiator and its very wide, but i made it all work.

I'm also considering a small cheap fast spooling single setup since it's my daily, on stock 370cc fuel. I have a Safc Neo that would be perfect for this setup. I'm thinking 350whp would be perfect for commuting and not breaking my W58!

The Supra is also coming along albeit a bit larger turbo, Precision 61/76. I bought the main pieces to an older lightly used ETS/HorsepowerFreaks NA-T kit.

We pulled the entire subframe to tap the oil pan which wasn't that bad actually. I've just been test fitting everything so far. The oil drain on this particular kit has been difficult to figure out, but it's all about to start getting torqued down.

All I got so far is just mock up pics, but I know you like pics!

This should do the trick...

Test fitting the newer xspower intake. After I removed the EGR system, and other various vacuum line junk I realized that the stock intake isn't that bad to remove so I'm just gonna run the stocker.
