Got some updates guys! the car has been at Souther car customs for a few weeks, and its my turn to be the car of focus for the week. I found out that the bolts that go into the tranny were stripped or broken off, and unrepairable, i opted for a newer tranny here is the rest of what i was told (i dont feel like typing the whole thing so imma cut and paste )

We got the new Tranny into today as well as the axles. We opened up the old transmission today and found some bad news the clutch plate is shot and when I say shot I mean shot. Attached are some pictures of the clutch. So we are going to need to get the flywheel resurfaced. The Clutch plate replaced and we also had to get new AC lines and an AC Compressor b/c yours are damaged. I received the the mount inserts and the mounts that needed replacing are supposed to arrive from toyota tomorrow. If we can get some answers soon we can still get this engine in the car by tomorrow. I heard from my friend in canada and they finished the Manifold and are shipping it out to arrive here tomorrow.

i also found out that i will need new ac compressor and lines and a few other things pertaining to a crack in an area where the bolts are supposed to go into the block from the mainifold and im praying that it wont give a problem later. i have pics of it and i will give you guys an update later today or tomorrow about those cracks.



I contacted teh place where i got the clutch from and found out that since it was over a year, it was out of warranty although the accident happened 3 months later. (but they sent me the wrong one! NOT A STAGE 2 LIKE I ASKED) i was told its an iron man from comp clutches. JUST ABOVE stock clutch. the flywheel will be resurfaced also

THIS IS ONLY 3 MONTHS OF WEAR ON THE CLUTCH










tell me what you guys think!
