1996 Celica GT: The Roadtripper, 1MZ swap: 90% there Options

[bnr32celica]

I'll just skip to the good stuff here as no one likes a long story.

Bought car, lowered, blew head gasket, fixed. Put in some 5GC cams and a header at the same damn time. Drove, let friend drive for a while, got back. Head asked blew again, did again. Motor started knocking, and here we are.

The go:
--1MZ swap in the bay, awaiting wiring
--S54 with welded diff

The stop:
--5x114 swap in progress (I still need wheels)
--V6 Camry brakes

The dance:
--Tein Stechs
--GR2s
--Rebuilt rear end
--GT4 rear tower bar

The show:
--2post
--OEM 15s painted black (for now)

The beats:
--Sony Bt2900
--Alpine Speakers

The glasses:
--HID lows
--Yellow highs

My goal is to be done a week before the meet. I'm trying for it, but it's been a tough road when you barely have time to work on it.

I'm just leaving this here for future reference,basically what I have left to buy:

--1MZ upper end gasket kit
--more Toyota RTV made of unicorn piss and fairy farts
--pay Smaay for the mount
--call Driveshaftshop and get the FINAL price on my lengthened MR2 axle (no carrier mount FTW)
--call tose guys on eBay because it's been THREE WEEKS and I don't have my headers yet
--continue to pester Kurt, buy Kurt and wife a nice dinner after the meet for all their help
