                        Ok so I've got a little bit of an update..went to a free parts day and grabbed some stuff.

                        Got pop-out windows for the rears


                        A deck lid spoiler (not sure if i'm mounting it or not...not a reference to the penis drawn on the window FYI)


                        And got a new set of kidney grills


                        Also ordered some euro smiley projector headlights to clean up the front end a bit.
                        Also here's a picture of the newest addition to our shop, it should help out a lot along the way!

                          so....couldn't keep waiting around for wiring before i made some more progress so here it is...









                          Engine is in to check clearances and take measurements for a driveshaft and intercooler piping/exhaust!







                          also installed the clutch/ flywheel and transmisson



                          shifter location is close



                          oil pan clearance



                          little bit of room for a rad



                          ride height with weight of engine/ tranny




                          And on a less exciting note, I decided to mount the decklid spoiler and the rear window carpet section





                          Sleeper apeal

                              Ok so this project should have been done by now and I'd love to have some updates for you...however.. I sent both my wiring harnesses out in december to have a plug and play conversion harness made. It's been paid for and I've heard good things about the craftsmanship of these harnesses.

                              The problem is that since April in 2 week intervals i receive an email from the shop saying that they will send it out "friday"...at the rate it's going I'm not going to see my wiring again this year and have lost ALL motivation...what am I supposed to do?

                                Sorry to hear about that last bit, but great work so far man. A 1jz/ 1.5jz/ 2jz swap has always been the plan for my car, so this thread should help when the time comes around. And btw, If you want the look of those Hyashi's, but w/ the proper lug pattern and better sizing, check out the Rota Shakotan(see my sig and all the pics ive posted before, im a whore ). Again, cant wait to see this finished.
