Realized you need a get power steering reservoir and lines. St lines won’t work. Easier to install while engine is out

Editing photos takes long enough, I imagine videos take even longer. lol Realized you need a get power steering reservoir and lines. St lines won’t work. Easier to install while engine is out yup, figured that out last week so luckily I was visiting Chris and raided his parts car for the power steering lines and side mount. He already gave me the reservoir during the meet I just haven't documented any of it yet. #ShouldaGotAHonda No thanks, I prefer my rides to not get stolen #TooSoonJunior? -------------------- *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

Good to know, I'll have to do some searching from amayama like you said to see what other parts can still be gotten, maybe a TRD bumper? hahaha
But the midwest crew came through for me yet again. Should have that last piece soon. -------------------- *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

I'm hoping to do most of the big stuff this month. Last night, got the clutch lines and clutch pedal just about bolted in. Just gotta remove the 7afe exhaust outta the way and the engine bay should be ready for the BEAMS -------------------- *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

UPDATE:
Jake and Sam had my mount and weren't sure if they could deliver it to me this past weekend so they shipped it out but turns out they were able to make it after all. Funny enough, they came the same day that the part arrived. lol. I took them for a ride in my 1st gen and I'm pretty sure they enjoyed it. We tested the mount and bracket and voila 100% stock fitment. FINALLY all my mounts are complete, I just have to wait until I drop in the engine and drill the holes. speaking of holes, tonight I had to enlarge the clutch pedal holes a bit and fiddle with the alignment before it all fit and bolted in. Next I'll have to bolt the trans and engine together and attach the wiring harness, but not before I make a little fix to the harness due to some new found knowledge. Better to do it now while it's off. After that, I'll just need to hack the 7a downpipe off and I can drop the engine in!! SO CLOSE!!!
