Decided to start part 2. Part 1 got locked at my request, it was going no where. This time is final, and a tribute to my car...
This will mostly be a journal. Not a how to. No where else to keep records. You are welcome to ask questions. No 2gr info here, there is a separate thread... This car has not been driven in 8 months, it has been used as a parts car, for the mr2, and the previous celica sold. Unfortunately, because of this, its getting new parts, or parts are getting blasted and painted. The car currently is a sad vision, 7 years of use, last 3 of neglect... few pics of current condition... ( no wipers, no knuckles, no seats, no steering, etc, etc, etc...) DSCN1313  DSCN1308  DSCN1310  holes left from removing things.. DSCN1312  the knukcles ive got, are rusted.... DSCN1311  Most recently decided to pull all the wiring, for the cruise control. I will never use it so... E3C0FF98  it was sent away EED8DDA9  while i was there... 1FDA2065  then.. B483D95E  over the next few weeks will bring it back to life again.....

I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

well not that many, since working on the swap delayed me a lot. little here and there.
Since the FRS seats dont fit, got a steamer finally to steam the foam and rejuvenate it, and wrap the oem seats in leather... DSCN1364  however, the stupid leather upper covers dont fit, they have somehow shrunk.... made a custom line for low pressure power steering. more info on the swap... DSCN1469  cleaned the subframe DSCN1463  and painted it... DSCN1473  painted the power steering rack. DSCN1464  and trying to hack some enlinks for the front. DSCN1472  cant do the engine wiring because i dont have a spcific plug, and it sucks.. so im just doing bits here and there..

QUOTE (njccmd2002 @ Nov 13, 2014 - 6:35 PM)  and trying to hack some enlinks for the front.  What length did you cut the bolt for those endlinks? I was actually considering doing exactly this. -------------------- taking too long to mod since '09
