The Time has Come...Winter Build

Setrab Oil Cooler.    
2JZ AEM EMS, Jumper Harness, Apex'i Big Power Intercooler 28x9x4.75, 3" ARC EndTanks
AERO !! Finally. Version Select Type II
Ahhh. 2 years later, I get aero. Shoot
SR is Out, Dang that thing is Clean.
Lots of Cleaning. Energy Suspension Steering Rack Bushings...
Time to Party. 1JZ, R154, S-Chassis Mount Kit
I was pretty damn excited to find that AEM EMS. I'm a pretty big nerd when it comes to tuning, so no more screwing around. I will be ordering SS -6AN Lines to transfer all the fuel lines to the driver side frame rail. I will be using an inline filter and a 2nd Walbro 255 in the engine bay feeding the rail. Since, I'm back at school progress will be slow from here until around Thanksgiving. Things will really start to come together during Christmas break.

Oh, and I'll be doing a bunch of routine maintenance to the engine:
- Timing Belt
- A/C Delete Belt
- Water Pump
- R154, Output Seal
- Front and Rear Main Seals
- Belt Tensioner
- Idler Pulley
- Cam Seals
Next parts on the list to order:
- ACT Extreme 6 Puck Clutch, 3200lb. Pressure Plate
- AN Lines for the Fuel System
- 57-1 or 60-1 T3/T4 Hybrid Turbo

Saying GoodBye to a Companion

Monday afternoon, my long time loyal Old English Mastiff companion passed away. April was 11 years old and was the best garage buddy anyone could ask for.

Tongue never seemed to fit in her mouth when she slept xD
April on the Left. Sarge on Right.
Miss you April <3.
