  1. Car direct to paintshop on monday!! Full engine bay respray The Krimi's way hahahaha
  2. Car looks lovely Pete!!! Congrats for the result, honestly SRD is the way to go in the UK!!
  3. MOT pass Tomorrow we will start with te engine removal. Quick wiring for the fuel pumps done today.
  4. I dropped the car for MOT today and after that we will start taking out my actual engine for storage, repaint engine bay, open the V160 to reseal the housings and put new seals in it, till I wait for the engine ti arrive home. Wiring should be done during the next following weeks in the evenings, hold it in place in the engine and install the ECU with a base map to have a “Turn key” engine once it arrives. Last pictures of the Non-vvti TT engine in the car, only have kind words for this engine performance in the last 2 years!
  5. We have a white Supra in the workshop which is owned by the engine builder, and we use it as a mule, because mine already have the engine in.
  6. Also new order today for the final look of new engine, carbon everywhere hahaha
  7. Oil feed and oil return in place, water lines also in place and tested This month is going to be busy for me, so we will focus in work to take out the engine, paint, and open to reseal the housings of the V160. And some weekend my friend in charge for the wiring will finish it. I finally change the ECU and the tuner, we go MaxxEcu
  8. All of the hard lines are custom made with an special machine by a company near to the workshop, so I cant give you much details
  9. It will be covered only for 30 mins while in MOT hahaha Thanks!! A lot of work to end up with this final product!
  10. Aaaand the engine is done. Hardlines installed, hot parts wrapped and oil return line in place. Some leftovers ordered and ready to start with the new harness.
  11. Hi Danny, Yes I remember this build back in the day and was done by Lee at SRD. My covers are custom, so depends on your turbo, we can make a copy for you or try to find the way to build something that works for you.
  12. Manifold come back from fabricator, so much more room now, need to modify the DP because now the turbo sits differently. Also now the turbokit is fully done just making Turbo and manifold covers to go thru MOT here in Spain, the inspections are getting worse and worse across the years. So intake to OEM Box just to the inspection and cover for the whole turbo. Also a cover for underside in the making.
  13. Changing plans, we go with the vvti manifold to avoid the VVTi solenoid in the front part of the head. Intake done, and tomorrow or thursday we should receive last bits to have everything over the desk to check for leftovers.
  14. Thanks, not too much time in week days to progress. FMIC Hotside holder.
