HERE TO REP FOR MY KA PALS OUT THERE
Will be
TONS OF PICS I THINK
UGH I have been on here for some time now but money sucks parts cost to much lol and well im just broke. So i figured i would get a jump so you guys dont get sick of me posting pics of taking off 2 bolts at a time
I bought the car April 09 dirt cheap no rust..
It ran but it was a wreck, No seat belts, celica seats with with carrige bolts holding them in. was a real joke..
It had been painted atleast 3 times with a can and was sharp enough to cut you .
Starting with the day it was dropped off
any way first things that needed to be addressed was the shot clutch slave. took care of that and by passed that damn block. Made my life much better.
I drove the car for about 3 months till I started reading about this 248/248 cam swap people were doing. Then I saw a video of it on youtube and was like well it might not be like boost but it sounds sick!
Of course when I do it all goes to hell 2 days later but was sweet
After this began the tear down for some reason my mind and hands had 2 diffrent Ideas on what we were doing. I was suppose to just take the head to get checked out tanked cams put back to check and throw it back together and well this is were we took the turn to overhaul..
Out with the old
and out came the motor
well of course i wasnt done tearing things up. So I attacked the interior also
and also out came the sub frame " I STOLE THIS PIC TO CONTINUE MY STORY"
OK next step after that was to install SPL solid sub frame bushing and uh WOW these guys were no joke to install you can see my mangled self adjusting wrench because my impact got them so far in then i did the rest by hand
also met with Shift Jin and picked up a j30 diff and axles fyi really kool dude. If you live in Ky or near Winchester hes the go to guy
Ok back on track to getting it where it needs to be and when the money really started flying
redid the trunk with spary on truck bed liner came out great looks great
lol ^ for my 5 lug I have a set of s14 se wheels
next task was the seats if you have a s13 im sure you know the back seats are not people friendly being that they are to small and when your tall and you have s14 seats that go back farther then stock it makes it worse. so its a looks only so I bought some Sem fabric dye and did the rear seats black.
SO MUCH BETTER
I also picked up some s14 seats for my car from shift jin btw he is my # PARTS GUY and started on the audio side of my car... Yea yea i know my build is all over the place but its gonna be finished all at once so i try to keep it balanced.
In the rear was a custom 6 1/2 install but same up front but componets and its all kicker..
Along with installing guages and greddy turbo timer while the dash was out of the way
Then picked up greddy TI-C ON SALE 460 SHIPPED couldnt pass
Ok onto the motor and drivetrain
