Long time no update, got the job I wanted and have been buying a lot of parts but working on other cars more than mine.
My block was all put together, just got some bolts from majestic that I needed to torque the oil pump (why did they use such a long bolt!). Head is all bolted tight, just need to put the valve cover, front cover and oil pan on now. All the motor stuff is the same as my original post just added ferrea valves like I had planned and went with OEM bearings. Got the blox intake gasket and the holes need to be opened up before it will fit, kinda lame but no biggie.
Got a bunch of gauges for the car, my friend is cnc'ing a plate for them this week, and hopefully this weekend or next my friend is gonna come and wire the whole car.
The switch panel I'll be using to run the car.
All new wiring gonna be used throughout the car. Just ordered more of the painless wire and a bunch of deutsch connectors.
Fuel cell holder that needs to get welded into the car, and doing dual in tank walbros.
More of the fuel system
Fuelab reg/filter
Got my battery
All the lines/fittings for the catch can and bigger gauge wire for the fuel pumps, also some AN wrenches and the vise holder to assemble them.
Painless battery wire.
5 bar map
FIC injectors and the flow sheet.
Heater
Thats most of the photos in my photobucket of what I've bought since my last post, trying to sell the clutch I got to buy a twin disc. Mazworx has agreed to make an adapter plate to the z33 trans. Neeman sent in a bellhousing to them so hopefully they can knock out the plates in a few weeks and I can make a trans mount and get a driveshaft made. I ended up with a 7.5in supra rear axle for now. My BattleVersion 5 link is meant to make it a bolt in and just want the car rolling instead of having to narrow the 8.8 and buy axles.
Have all the AN lines and fittings coming to hook up my oil pressure and turbo feed. Got most of them from summit but got a 1/8 bsp to -3 from pegasus racing. Got an NPT tee to hook my boost/map sensors into and run a -3 line to them. Need to tap my oil pan for the temp sensor, and weld the return bung onto the front cover before it all gets bolted on for good.
Thats about it for now, after I mount my wilwood pedals, column and make seat brackets I can weld in the door bars and have the inside painted. Hoping to have the trans situation figured out sooner rather than later and make some pulls this summer.
