Wow, looks awesome! Come do this to my st165!

Ugh - tell me about it. Stephen and I are STILL working out the bugs from early 6GC.net swap wires
It's about there now tho.



Manny and Jim - You two are the beasts of the east man. Great luck to you on this project [as if you'd need it LOL]

Jim - I need parts from your discarded 2nd gen BAD - Please hit me up [Shannon has my digits if you don't still]

lmao i love it

lmao we try, mattt. we try.

jim is on vacation with shannon till saturday. i really dont think he'll mind, just let me know if you need it. i think i may have one laying around from jims old 2nd gen setup to replace it if need be.

soo, not too much happening the past couple days, finished up the bpipe, just waiting on some parts to arrive, gonna go out in a while and clean up the welds on the b-pipe, paint it, and install it, and put the finishing touches on the IC piping before it gets sent for coating.

one cool thing that did happen is my cousin took jims wheels over to the local vo-tech school, and they are going to dismount the tires, clean up the bead seats on the wheels, install new valve stems, remount and balance them, all for free. gotta love that.
the bead seats are a bit rusty from the car sitting for so long, so the tires, even though they are like new, dont wanna hold air, the above should fix it right up!

pics over the weekend!

Love this thread. I can't wait for videos of this beast.

Manny how big of an upgrade is ct-20b to td06 and how much laggier is it ?

its a bit laggier, but 400whp capable.

a pic for the haters.

^^amazing.
where is that gonna go?

Looking good, glad my exhaust helped. V-bands FTW

its the battery hold down clamp for the battery relocation kit im making for jims car.
they will be available for sale for us 6th genners as well.

Looking great Manny, wtf is up with these late 80 early 90 toyota engine bays, my 88 corolla gts is tighter than sh!t,
and it looks like this is the same way, hope your knuckles survive.

got the intercooler tubes back from powdercoat last night, used a wrinkle silver finish on them, i think they look great.
