Hey man, if your interested and still have project going, I have one of bills TH350 adapters for sale for $250 since I'm selling my project. I also have a B/M Zgate shifter I can sell pretty cheap with it. Progress looks good so far though man.

shroder15

LOL...I wasn't actually originally planning on selling them, and forgot to go in and put a price on them. I'm trying to get $250.00 shipped for them, they are new and only installed...never used.

The truck is going to be on its way down to SC saturday, and the tear down will being. If there is anything from the truck that you would be interested in, please let me know. It sucks to have to do this, but its what I need to do right now to accomplish my goals. I'll be taking one step back to ...

Ok guys, I have had a VERY difficult decision to make over the past few days, and I do not enjoy this. I recently moved to North Augusta, SC to open a shop and to race. Unfortunately, I was unable to get a job until recently and lived on my funding longer than I wanted to, and no longer have the ...

Well...I'm going to try the junkyards around here tomorrow to see if I can come up with any. If not, the person who can come up with a great quality timing cover for me to use, I will either purchase it off of them or I can sell the carbon covers to that individual at very close to cost. Thanks!

shroder15

Ok...I've acquired a good amount of what I need to start making the molds, but I need a VERY good condition upper and lower 6 bolt cover. I do not have a 6 bolt, and my upper cover is bowed away from the timing belt. I'm going to try to fix this tonight with heat, but if this doesn't work, is there ...

Alrighty. Forgot to update, but I now have a vacuum generator enroute to the shop and today I'm headed out to, according to yellowpages.com, a local fiberglass and autobody supply store. I'm trying to locate a good place local for the basic fiberglass supplies, body filler, auto paint, mold making ...

shroder15

Well...I'm having a little trouble ordering some of the parts as I need a bank card to do so...and I had to recently switch banks with my move...But I picked up the Air Compressor a few days ago, and the shop's getting set up pretty well. I just ordered my vacuum generator for the resin infusion of ...

shroder15

lol...I know how that can be too!

Plans are changing yet again with the truck...
I've had a hard time wanting to trust a nice heavy turbo hanging on to my head by extended studs. Due to some work on a buddy's 3g eclipse down here, I've been gifted an Evo3 thats in need of a rebuild. Plans are to sell my Evo8 set up (anyone ...

shroder15

UPDATE: Funding for the business finally came through, so I'll be ordering everything for the carbon fiber and fiberglass this monday! I'll also be getting the truck down this weekend if all goes well!

shroder15

How am I the first to say this:

PICS or ban!!!

Seriously though man, this sounds like a B/A swap for both vehicles...get some pics and details up for us to enjoy!

shroder15

Sorry for the lack of updates guys. I recently moved to North Augusta, SC and am waiting to get the truck towed down to finish it. I have a few leaks to tidy up, I have to run the fuel line from the tank to the pump, aquire a new pump, and a few other odd and end things. I'm hoping to have the truck ...

shroder15

I know its been a while since you posted, but are there any progress updates on this one?

shroder15

Looks good man! Out of curiosity, what are the 3kgt rear ends good for (on an awd set up)? It seems like if you were going to spend the money on those parts, eventually it may just be worth it to get the ford 8.8 rear end...plenty of aftermarket support, and plenty of those rear's available at the ...

shroder15

Build looks good so far, but I only had one concern (may not turn up, but something to think about). I dont know how much power you are looking to lay down, but if the rear end has seen 900awhp, its only getting about 450 horses back there. With your intake manifold set up, I'd say your shooting for ...

shroder15

FINALLY. Pictures. Not a started truck, but more pics :) I made some progress, but had no motivation the last day I worked on it and am limited on time today. I should have it filled with fluid everywhere save the trans for reasons I'll show shortly. Depending on time constraints, I MAY get to wire ...

shroder15

Bill, I actually just saw how you removed it a few posts above. I dont know how I missed it. I'll try and just take it apart and go from there. Thanks again!

shroder15

Bill,
I'm trying to pop the retaining clip off of the top of the starter to change the gear, but cannot for the life of me get it to come off. I asked a friend if we should disassmble the starter and he said no veeery firmly. Just curious how you swapped out the gear? Thanks!

shroder15

Alrighty,
I got a little more done on the truck and thought I would share the progress. Mainly got the gauges (save the wideband) wired in and ready to get hooked up to their counter parts. Bed is on the truck about 95% (need to source some large grade 8 washers :)). Trans cooler is mounted and ...

shroder15

Got a little more done. I had to order a new fitting for my fuel lines as one fittings threads are jacked and will not seal, but other than that she's basically done! Also fabbed up a pinion snubber. I was not a fan of only having 3" of clearance or so from the slapper bars, so I chopped the ...

shroder15

Has the 3kgt brake upgrade been looked into for the calipers? Either that, or compared to the size of the montero of similar years? If the monteros are larger, it may be worth a shot

shroder15

Alrighty,
So I made progress, then again pissed myself off. The dash is in, my custer is cut, my tach is mounted, and I got an eclipse starter to spin over to test the wiring since it was so cut when I got it. THEN I wanted to alter my fuel lines to fit my fuel tank...only to find that the fittings ...

shroder15

WOW. Just went back through my pictures and apparently I have some of the turbo, downpipe, and wastegate setup that never made it here. So...here are some more of the pics...SORRY!

Alright...Here are some pics of the engine bay harness as it sits now. I still have to add in some grounding straps, and maybe up the size of the cable going to my alternator from the battery, but its basically done.

Ok, so the last day I was at the shop I completed the engine wiring harness (no pics yet) and threw a battery in the truck to tag the wires I need for the ECU. I was so happy because the first time since I've had the truck, it made noise! Grant it, it was the annoying "Hey moron, your key's in the ...

shroder15

Well, I got some more done with the truck. The downpipe and exhaust are completed, along with the dump tube. I also ran into an issue with my stock tank that sat for 10 years...I went to run some water through it and for 15 minutes the lining of the tank continued to come off. At this point I ...

shroder15

Ok thanks...I guess I was still a little confused on some of the wires, and wanted to be sure he was correct with it. The two plugs by the 3 fuse box were never answered I dont believe, and he wasn't sure what the black and white wire or black and red wire by the battery that was cut was for. I'm ...

shroder15

lol...yea, battery is staying up front for now. I need to get it rolling before I start putting more time into that :) Also, the wiring harness is how it was when I got it...unfortunately, there are a few cut wires and randomness that confuse me. Actually, if you could help me out with it I would ...

shroder15

As for the newest update, I finally got the cab 90% complete. Bedliner is in the inside of the cab and the engine bay, and the bay has some semigloss paint where I thought it may be more appropriate. Also, one of the last pictures has my new coolant over flow tank from a mid 90's galant. the bracket ...

shroder15

Ok...I think I said that I got the DSM buckets in, but if not...I got the DSM buckets in...lol. They are from a 92 N/T that I had in my GSX as they were lighter than the others...I mounted them by removing the crossbar thats spot welded in, drilling through the cross bar and running grade 8 bolts ...

shroder15

Oh...and I really appreciate the compliments. I was trying to keep everything in order as far as color and such, and really going for one of the cleanest swaps possible. No Maf, engine harness wire tuck, and really the only visible wires being that going to the battery. I'll also have 3 or 4 vaccuum ...

shroder15

LOL...Well...the truck will be competing in the "footbrake" classes at the local tracks, but still be tagged for light street duty. I am still waiting on the slicks, but be sure I'll get pics up asap once i have them mounted. The truck isn't bad with the drop and leaf spring combo, but i really need ...

shroder15

Clean man...now off hand, did that come with the r154 trans? I think the celica supra had it...but I cant remember if the celica did. Either way, keep us posted!

shroder15

Ok...i'm a little confused. Are you trying to find where they go on the block, or trying to get info to order them?

shroder15

Ok...so the truck plan has OBVIOUSLY changed since the first post on here...lol! I thought I would update with the modlist that is most current with all that I can remember. Again, I want to thank my sponsors: SiliconeIntakes.com, Cooper Tires, and Larry's Tire from Lynchburg, VA. Anyways...the list ...

shroder15

More updates. I was bored and thought I'd go ahead and mock up the motor, turbo, intercooler, piping and BOV. The BOV is a forge knock off and is on the way out for an HKS SSQV. Also, I decided to change up the look in favor of a raw metal valve cover and flat black coil assembly. I may swap back to ...

What I did for mine was to cut an ebay t3 manifold at the flange, flip the flange upside down, and had it rewelded. Turned out fairly well for only paying someone 40 bucks to do the cutting and welding for me :) Just make sure if you rock the ebay stuff you brace the turbo somehow to keep as much ...

shroder15

The COP setup was on the cheap for me and from a buddy...I wasn't aware you needed the amplifier. Can you provide any other info on that for me? Thanks!

As far as the nomads, they were a great price, but not exactly the design I wanted...but I'll spend the real money if I ever convert to 5 lug ...

shroder15

any new updates on this?

shroder15

Wow...I'm glad I dont have to deal with that, but I am clueless with wiring, so this is gonna be a challenge anyways. But I figure if I can knock everything else out, I should be able to figure that out too. As far as the coupler goes, try the ol hairspray trick. I've always found it to work...

shroder15

And next up we have the motor that will be going into the truck. Its your standard 6 bolt rebuild, all stocked out for the bottom end. The head has been port matched with the intake and exhaust manifold gaskets along wtih being ported on both sides. The cams will be replaced with adjustable cam ...

shroder15

Ok...Finally made some more progress (thank you tax return). I've got a few sets of pics that I'll upload...there are a good ammount of pics, so It'll probably be over a few posts as I find the pictures on the computer. Enjoy!

Ever get tired of having to go up and over to mount your motor and trans ...

shroder15

Oh yea...def. But thank god my daily has AC and cruize...this is just for the track and show...but still driven everywhere...but the shootout. I'll be trailered there

shroder15

well...just so you know you wont be the only one on the site with a satin black D50. I'm running ALK 200 black. Not the best stuff, but sure looks good now that its done. I gotta start updating my thread. Its now satin black, I have a pic of the motor out of the car, I stillhave to bed liner the bed ...

shroder15

LOL. Glad I can help. If you get the ebay manifold, just make sure you brace the turbo/downpipe somewhere like the eclipses/evo's do from the factory to keep as much weight off the manifold as possible. The stock evo 8/9 turbo hit on the inlet side at the upper balance shaft casting. Hope this helps ...

shroder15

Thanks for the pics! For the bottom, under the spacers, are those the rails from the eclipse or the truck? thanks again!
