Ok, not that anyone was holding their breath for pix, but I'm finally posting some up from my swap that was done about a month ago now. My car is a 1995 SC300 W58 and I bought a JDM GTE/V160 swap to install.
Once we got all the parts were together, the swap went in with ease. Mad props go out to Derek Parris, Peter and Alex from Parris Engine Dynamics (PED) for bustin the swap out with the quickness.

Parts Installed:
JDM Supra GTE
JDM ECU (for now)
USDM GTE wire harness
W58 (for now, F/S to DCsticks soon)
SC300/KAAZ 2 Way LSD (F/S Soon)
Greddy FMIC
PED custom 3' mandrel bent IC piping
HKS BOV
PED custom 3.5" mandrel bent down pipe
QTP 3.5' electric exhaust dump
APEX'i dual exhaust
dual electric fans
AEM Wideband UEGO gauge

Parts Waiting For Installation:
V160*
Dynosaur 3" billet/chro-mo 1 piece driveshaft
Supra TT LSD differential
AEM EMS

*Note: My 6 speed arrived with a broken gear selector rod and missing shifter assembly, so the importer refunded me $400. But...I have to wait until my bank account heals before I can order any more parts, so I'm running the W58 until then. No dyno pulls until I get the V160 and AEM EMS installed.



My whoo-ride!

So far so good. Everything runs great, no CELs or anything. The turbo seals were leaking oil, but that seems to have either slowed or stopped all together. The stock clutch failed instantly, so I replaced it with a new Sachs clutch as a patch until I can get my 6 speed in. This clutch can't handle it either, so I'm just trying to nurse it until I get more $$$!

I remember those guys form high school. One had a bmw with the dinan 3 badge and the other had a prelude. Why didnt you go with the clutch fan setup? A lot of the supra guys say its the best and cheapest setup. Mad props though looks sick! My car is still in the shop getting painted. Hopefully itl be done soon i miss driving my sc.

clean setup! did you take the injen sticker and place it on your piping lol?

afrrealty

Thanks everyone for the kind words

afrrealty

Thanks for remembering the climate control issue. My problem is resolved now. Peter at PED fixed it, but I don't know what he did lol. Ya I asked Brian about V160 parts as well as TT axles and he had neither. He did say that I can use my SC axles on the TT LSD but it's just a ****** to put them on. He said it's not as difficult if you install the axles in the rearend on the ground, then bolt up the whole assembly after.

afrrealty

Hahaha ya...but the Injen intake piping, filter and couplings are integrated into the new setup as well.

Does your ac work? Id like to get mines fixed.

afrrealty

My climate control does. My ac should but I need to get it recharged first.
