Lovely mate, well done for sticking with it, you have a real stunner now! I hope you can give me a ride when its finished :)

 

Yeah sure mate, as long as I get to ride along with the twins at some point :cool:

 

looking good mate, your car is pretty much in the same state as mine now, just awiting a space for SRD to work thier magic :)

 

Cheers mate, it's pretty exciting at this stage with the chassis complete again and the engine almost complete :)

 

very nice job

 

Thanks bud! :thumbs:

Hypertune manifold and a few more polished bits are on.

 

The cam covers, water necks, turbo compressor housing and a few other little bits are going to the chromers for an even better finish.

 

Engine mounts are now uprated TRD mounts.

 

I also had the extended sump swapped back to standard one as I'll probably be lowering the car a little more in the future and didnt wanna risk scraping it on the hundreds of speed bumps we have round here.

Aren't TRD engine mounts really firm, i'm sure i read on here that someone wished they'd fitted

new stock ones instead

 

Not that firm, just a bit stiffer than stock. Some people have said they hardly felt the difference after fitting TRD units.

"I replaced my engine and gearbox mounts after similar issues which took the clunking away

 

Worth mentioning I replaced them with TRD mounts which are so stiff you could hear every gear change and gear, rather annoying , stock would have been better result"

That's surprising. I have TRD engine and gearbox mounts, and never had the feeling it was too rude on gearshifts.

Its the gearbox mount that causes most of the noise not the engine mounts
