Well finally after i dont know how long, my car will be getting tuned this week at efi cant fu<ken wait! rang Rick thursday to tee it up, would have been out there 2day but he was heading to sydney friday with sean its been a hell of a long time coming been ripped of by a couple people to the tune of about 14k which didnt help 1 bit changed my mind several several times on the setup but its finally ready the car was just recently switched over to run e85 so teflon lines were used thru the car, weldon fuel reg, id1000 injectors, twin 044 pumps, twin filters i fired the car up today for the 1st time in i cant remember how long fired 1st pop...well after i realised i hadnt hooked up the power lead to the starter lol its running extremely rich!! fouled the 1st set of plugs in it pretty quickly, came out very black and wet in went a new set an it ran much better but think they are nearly gone now 2 if the afr is correct on the laptop then its at about 10:1!! cant wait to see and hear it on the dyno! at the moment it sounds unreal!! and its only idling which is at about 900rpm to say that im pretty damn happy at the moment is an understatement!! for it to not be running for aslong as it has, basically doing all the installing of everything all myself, and the car firing and running straight up, im stoked!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Post osme pics of the bay!

Will take some 2moro after I polish up a couple pieces like the plenum n turbo All looks pretty dull at the mo cause it's been sitting for so long

good stuff troy

it definitly doesnt look like a show winner or anything but its got the good gear on it and should make some deent power on teh corn and being manual it will be a handful! just trimming the fuel out at the moment to get it running a bit better will post some pics up later 2day if it runs a bit better ill see if i can post a vid up of it running ---------- Post added 12-09-10 at 11:54 ---------- gradually took fuel out ended up taking out 35% and doesnt blow smoke at all on idle now definitly doesnt sound like any other supra ive heard! cant wait to see what it makes

that figure is wrong, i dont even have an o2 sensor hooked up so its not right that must be just what the microtech says when u dont hav an o2 sensor also the car only has 98 in the tank at the moment will be getting e85 when it goes on the dyno to be tuned

put an auto in it hehe no bleeding clutch issues then Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

haha i was actually going to put the manual in my aero an put a th400 in this car then found a 3.4 stroker at a good price and bought that instead and the guy done a runner with my cash so i lost bout 8.5K there, still trying to get something back from it ---------- Post added 12-09-10 at 18:29 ---------- added a pic that i took a few days ago everything is all sorted, harness all plugged in ect since then

Top work Troy. Will see this thing during the week. What you doing with them old coils on the window? "please throu them in the bin"

Haha there installed now Although I do have another set from my other motor Just finishing off the clutch 2night, wiring the fans properly n check any leaks again n it's done So prob be out there Wednesday night

Holy crap. Finally is an understatement.

Hey troy I was reading a thread about you putting fuel lines under the car, did you end up going 1/2" or 3/8 lines?

ive got twin -8 (1/2") feed lines under the car, each being feed by an 044 pump going into there own magnafuel filter ive also got a single -8 return line there all teflon stainless lines aswell because of the e85 ill be using

Sux about you losing money to scumbag theiving pricks. Good to see a car finished though good luck with it hope it all holds together for you and you can get some enjoyment out of it. j

Thanks jay It's the 2nd time I've been done 1st was with my Calais when it got stripped n lost about 6500 Then the stroker which was 8500 Apparently the cops have found him tho so will see if I get anything back this time Still can't get the clutch done so it will b on a trailer prob Friday night out to efi n see if they can bleed it up

so what happen been trying to call you

Well done Troy, will be good to see what a 76 makes on the googs And i know what it feels like to get ripped of and ****ed around with the build, i have to this time aswell , My whole car needs repainting because of a ****er(and it was a new paintjob) and he stole **** out of it aswell .thats why mines taken so long aswell Good for you to still have the determination to finish it, it will be worth it. Every dog has his day aswell , don't forget that, something or someone will catch up with those people and they will get theres! cheers darren Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
