Still needed, cash in hand!

So I've been slowly collecting parts over the past month and I don't have all of them but you can see it's an array of BG and T3 stuff. I'm still awaiting the SQ V3 cooling kit and some stuff for the interior from Japan and a fellow member. I've mostly been working on the motor so here's what went o...

post pics. Will pay for shipping. Dents are ok but no creases or rust! PM or email 20v.ae8six@gmail.com

You may not remember, but I bought some random door grommets from a local junkyard since apparently these cars didn't come with proper door grommets. I already had the driver one installed and completed but tonight I finally got around to getting the passenger side done. Here's the grommet I'm worki...

bump to the top

Interested in the kicks, shipped to 29461 (SC). Just PM a price and I'll paypal you. Also, any chance you have a glove box?

Holy **** man, I was admiring the body work and then bloody face! I cut my finger really bad a couple weeks ago with my jig and as you say **** happens. Keep up the solid work!

Still have the glove box?

So I got the head and alternator back from the machine shop. and this week's progress has been pretty slow. I finished painting the plug cover for the valve cover. Just used the same black metallic paint that I used on the block. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/661/phQVaY.jpg http://imag...

I think you're asking what I used to strip the paint and I just got some stripper from lowes. It's the goo off aerosol can stuff for epoxy and paint. I had to do it about 4 times but it worked really well at taking off the old stuff but not leaving any chemical residue on the cover. At least, so far...

I'll look into that if there's issues, thanks! I stripped the valve cover and painted it over the past couple days. I replaced the grommet and the breather on the back as well. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the plug cover yet but I think I'm just going to paint the letters and toyota symbol...

Motor looks great man! I'm building my 20v but not to this level!

Got the block all painted today. About 3 coats of VHT metallic black. I love it and I can't wait to get the head back and start putting things back together. These are after the first and last coat. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/537/nyaNsm.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q9...

Amazing that that is from a spray can, stellar work man!

Thanks for the epic words Torparts! I've been focusing a lot on cleaning the block and getting it ready for paint. This has involved a lot of VHT primer and rust rescue with a lot of wire wheeling and degreaser as well. The following pictures should tell the story of what I've accomplished so far th...

I am pretty pumped for this and very interested in how it will work!

From what limited research I've done, as long as your battery is the right size for it than you should be ok. I will post up reviews and articles I find but everything I've read says it's ok and that people have been very happy with the difference it makes. Edit: Check out this post, seems pretty in...

I got a new starter and alternator from autozone and the alternator is a higher amp one from the early 90s camry. I also just finished wrapping my header with the black fiberglass wrap too. What a PITA! I don't want to ever do that again . http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/661/eIiLFy.jpg W...

So tonight I got a few things removed from from the motor and a few goodies from T3. The first thing I removed was the valve cover. To be honest, I don't know how to tell if it looks like things are ok in there so if you have any feedback for me on what you think, I'd appreciate it. I think everythi...

So after noticing some issues, i.e. Oil leaking from the head and a leaking clutch slave cylinder, I decided to give the motor a pull for clean up and some upgrades. After pulling the header, you can see the oil leak is pretty bad. The starter had oil all over it. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/64...

Sorry, no cool pictures tonight. I've started pulling things apart to get the motor out so I can deep clean the bay before paint and replace and/or clean up some parts on it. I pulled the exhaust header off first so I can get my wideband O2 bung welded in and noticed that my head gasket is leaking o...

When is the projected date that these might be available?

I think I'm going to paint it the tacoma charcoal color with something special for the hood but I'm still deciding. The ipad dash looks decent but theres a small area that keeps rubbing away that's frustrating to deal with. Today I installed my emergency pull handle for the driver side. If the solen...

Sandwich plate came in today so I mounted the sensors in it for now and it'll sit until we pull the motor next week. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/633/SsO75U.jpg I'm still having trouble with paint chipping on the iPad dash so I'm trying a different method to hopefully make it more dur...

In the interest of not spreading hate, I contacted Greddy about the shipping and they actually discounted it to 21 and change shipped and had it to me in 3 days. The problem is when it showed up, the temp sensor I had didn't fit in it, so I contacted Matrix garage and they set me up with a sandwich ...

Yea man, I'll try to get a wheel off in the near future! I ordered an IS250 gas pedal from eBay to replace my accelerator pedal thinking it would just bolt up.... I was way wrong. So long story short I had to strip the IS pedal and transfer over the parts. I finally have a complete looking pedal set...

I did a full tuck of my main engine harness and moved the under hood fuse box into the car. I haven't worked out how to do the brake lines yet but I can't imagine it being that difficult. I'd like to go boosterless too to just remove some clutter.

Just more parts i.e. the 4 relays. I'm not sure what the current draw is on the signal and marker lights but DEI used to give a 2 relay box for the door locks in their old alarms that would work great as long as they could support the current draw.

That emblem came with the Cusco 2-way LSD. While I was deployed, I had a mechanic put the rear together for me. That's why I know so little about it

As far as I know It was just a stock GTS rear end. When I bought it, it had drums in the back but it had an LSD. Unfortunately this was years ago and I don't really have any pictures or records of the swap. Good luck with your build!
