Yeah i know i need pics and they are coming. Darton sleeves will be here next month, engines stripped and ready for sleeve insertion, cams are nothing like 1jz so they will be getting massaged and refitted with an upgrade valve springs retainers blah blah Decided on going with the 6spd auto that came in the series two century and will be here shortly. Cars going to be painted next week and hopefully home on that weekend once i get it and sit the engine in I'll take a few pics and upload.

Anyone wanting a respray down the south coast nsw hit up garbutts panel & paint absolute magicians. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Right so quick update, Cars now home and i've managed to clean up all the mess from the painters now i'm chasing Dynamat abd dynaliner, anyone done this with there vl's? i'm wanting to make the thing as quiet inside as possible. The sleeves and rods are due in Oz around XMAS... absolutely hanging for this phase of the engines assembly. also considering going with twin 35/40's nice and easy 600hp and i figure why not! a good friend of mine is building the same bottom end as what i'm doing and they're aiming for 900hp so i dont think i'll have issues in that region

Small update, two tone colour combination, very happy with how it's come out. (http://imageshack.com/f/eyt5mRGOj) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

No real updates at the moment however I have created a facebook page which is easier to maintain these days. for anyone interested have a look it's under "1gz Shed 86 Vl Calais V12 Tt" Dave

Been a little while but finally gotten all the car finished at the painters now so slowly piecing it back together from the firewall back. Have decided to run a th400 for the tranny as the Toyota boxes will never handle the tourqe. Progress is slowly happening and now beginning to design the engine mounts etc to mount the engine.
