Guest Budz86 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Good luck putting that engine back together, looks like you got some hours to put in there! I've got the whole supra workshop manual on the laptop if you want me to try and e-mail it across to you? All pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Yeah if you don't mind mate. [email protected] Only a few hours. Lol Got to find me a couple more bottom end parts and then send it away to be tinkered with, and then when I get it back I'll start lobbing it together. Going to strip the head in the mean time and replace the guides and stem seals so it's ready to go on when the rest comes back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Sorry mate, missed this post. Il sort it tonight if I remember! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 *Update* Not boost related, but yesterday I booked her into the bodyshop. First week of march she goes in for a full, bare metal respray, removal of the fibreglass bomex skirts, and fitting/painting of some OEM skirts. Hopefully.

Slicknick Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Good luck with the build mate, my car must have given you the boost bug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Watching with interest, let us know how you get on. Anything specific to look out for being an NA6? I am hoping to follow suit soon!! (if I ever find a suitable engine). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching with interest, let us know how you get on. Anything specific to look out for being an NA6? I am hoping to follow suit soon!! (if I ever find a suitable engine). Will do mate, will do photo progress and she's stripped. The Bomex skirts are replica's (bloody good ones!) but the fibreglass has absorbed moisture and bubbling and just looks shat for want of a better phrase! How do you mean mate? Look out for what?

Though that can be easily sorted! You taking somewhere for the body work? I mean in the sense, if it is an auto engine then does it need some sort work to fit the 6 speed, spigot or whatever it is called? Is it pretty straight forward?

Benjy Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 It's giant mechano with some plugs and pipes my friend! I'm already running the 6spd box, and although I believe my NA flywheel might fit, I'm also informed that it's dual mass and therefore, pants. My loom's from an auto but easily modified to be TT6.

Benjy Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 (edited) Update: RPS flywheel bought. ITS T74GTQ turbo bought. 3" down pipe bought. ARP rod and main cap bolts bought. Next up are: Crank pulley, Clutch kit, T4 manifold, Injectors, Pistons, Bottom end bearings, Pump, Cams, ECU. There are other bits that I'll collect along the way. Hoping to get the bottom end stuff first, then I can get the block/crank etc built, ready to put the head on and carry on from there Edited March 31, 2013 by Benjy (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
