Default Project Car: OneOfThem1JZSwapsWithTheJayDeEm

Stage 1 Goals... SC300 with 1JZGTE BPU+.

With the economy down scouraging for cheap reliable parts is easier to come by. So on to the pics with some of the parts I have already obtained. Enjoy...:camera:

Pair of Mickey Thompson on RX-7 Wheels...:eek:
Specs: RX7 Wheels are 16x8 and the tires are 255/50/16.





HKS FCD



MAPECUI With Harness
Note: Pretty much will be using MKIV base map to run the car until I can get it tuned.


HKS DP Made for the MKIV modded to fit SC300 with a 1JZ.



HKS FMIC with piping. Piping is going to be powdercoated. :cheers:

Its an 92 black on ****ty tan(which will be soon ditched). Got it for a good price, especially since the exterior is really nice. On to the pics.





First I thing I did was slapped on the DR's and washed her.





Started detailing her for a bit. Nice:camera:



Bumper off... It looks pretty cool.



Stock motor...



Radiator out...



Ewww Rust... Going to be side project in order to get rid most the rust. Possible respray.





Katelyn pulled the interior, most of the seats are trashed, and were going to try and clean the carpet as much as possible. If the carpet comes out well were going to keep it.





Ewww... Stains out of my ***!!!!:yes: Its literally disgusting. But with some clean good chemicals and lots of scrubbing. It should look good.



:???:



While the girlfriend was pulling the interior, I pretty much was disconnecting the harness and prepping the motor to be pulled.



No more intake.:goodjob:

Finally pulled the nasty *** interior.







After a few hours of cleaning the carpet(3 Cans of stain remover, and a steamer) at the same time when the the girlfriend was removing all the **** that was under the carpet. I received and mounted some new goodies.

DriftMotion.com custom intake for a 1JZ/2JZ. (I dont really like the blue )


Also got a chance to mount the FMIC...


And for the possible final carpet...


Finally was able to pretty much finish the interior. Pretty much have all the stains gone. Also installed the new Sparco seats(Thanks to Clark). Used Supra bracekts, which fit like a charm.

Just need a few touchup parts... If anyone has some I have cash in hand to purchase.

Tan Steering Wheel
Tan Shift ****
Tan Brake Boot



The motor is pretty much ready to be pulled out. PS pump and AC pump pulled 98% of the lines had been pulled. Anyone want a motorset?



Finally finished the interior. Complete new panels with new trims. And new rear seats...No pics of the rear seats, but one pic of the panel.



Finally got my Soarer Auto Driveshaft. SO FREKING JDM MONSTER.!!! :crazy: :eek:

Brought all 4 headlight pieces back to the apartment for some clearing up. Only took a few snap shots of one set.

Dirty and Hazy: Before



One Coat: After



Second Coat: Possibly Finished



Also another big update is that the motor was pulled over the weekend. And the motorset is just sitting there. BUY IT!!!



Remember that rust spot from the bay? I used a rust converter.. Sounds interesting right? Well its a chemical in a bottle that converts the rust into a black looking metal. Awesome ****...





And then I spray painted a little to get more of the black on the car. Still wet.

Got bored for a bit in the morning... Routed one side of the intercoole piping and just let it sit there for a bit. Also reinstalled the main headlights. Gotta put in the high beams in after the motor is in. Just to not have a chance on damaging the headlights... :goodjob:



One close up.

Either his car is jacked up or his tires are filled with a solid instead of air
