Looking good. That's going to make a nice little daily driver/sleeper. I really like the color too. Something low-key that won't stand out too much and neutral enough that you won't get tired of seeing it like some wild orange or yellow. Nice build.

Oh yeah. I completely forgot about that site. I was looking at their water outlet relocation kit a while back. Just checked out the alternator kit and it looks like a pretty well made setup. I saw yours was on the other side and thought maybe you had made your own brackets. That's the route I was ...

Good job getting it rolling. Looks like all that's left is little details. Thanks for the heads-up on the RRE flanges. I'd been to their site a few times and hadn't noticed those pieces, but I'm definitely going to have to order one, probably this week. I know now is a bad time to ask, but do you ...

Where did you get that O2 housing? Did you just buy a flange and make the pipes? If so, where did you get the flange?

It's good to see some progress. I was starting to wonder what was going on with this thing. Can't wait to see it painted.

Sorry it took so long to update. Progress has been kinda slow, but this is where I've made it so far:
After getting the engine running (sort of... b/c of the wrong ECU), we pulled everything out and started tearing it apart and cleaning everything up. Thankfully, it looks like someone has gone ...

Congrats! I hope it runs as good as it looks. Those are some wild colors, but it came together well.
I got mine going... now where's yours?
Still sitting in the car :( Don't rub it in.

Question: It looks like you rear tires have some width to them...How wide are those...255? I'm wondering how fat a tire I can cram under the rears and not have any rubbing issues.
The tires are 245/35/20s on 20x9 wheels (maybe 9.5, but I'm pretty sure they're 9") with a 30mm offset. The lips on ...

They call it an idle switch. That's definitely what the solid green wire goes to b/c I'm chasing a problem with mine right now. I've also found some of the pins at the ecu are different, like the pin for that green wire at the ecu on the 90s is used for a wire that goes to the MAF on later models.

I want to do before and after dyno duns. I'm sure they'll laugh when I ask them to run that (possibly) 88 HP turd. Given the off-and-on flat lifters, I'd be surprised if it puts 60 HP to the wheels. Unforunately, the closest dyno I know of around here is about a 45 min drive away, so I just hope I ...

Yeah, I'll bet you do get some odd looks at a golf course of all places.
I meant, what kind of Toyota... Tacoma, Supra...? Either way, I think I still want to use a Mitsubishi unit. I'm going to try to hit the junkyard this weekend to see what I can find. As far as moving the engine forward goes, I ...

Looks like you're almost ready to roll. Hell, even if it never ran, it'd still be nice just to look at that engine. You've got some pretty slick pieces on this thing. What did that transmission come from? How would you have gone about using the stock trans? I'd like to use all Mitsu parts if possible.

I definitely want a manual and I'm probably going to shoot for about 300hp, maybe a little less, but you know how these things can get out oh hand.

My attempt at a 4g63t swap into a Mighty Max

I've been wanting to do this swap for a long time. I found a 94 Mighty Max a few months ago on craigslist and picked it up for $800, which probably was a little too much considering it doesn't have a body panel on it that's not dented, but I liked the wheels and it ran well, so I got it. The wheels ...

Hopefully I'll end up with something that's reliable and fun to drive. I don't want a total sleeper, but I'm getting tired of all the ricers around here sitting beside me at a red light, revving the piss out of their little econo-box with a fart cannon, and expecting me to race them just because my ...

New guy doing a Mighty Max turbo swap

Well, I've stumbled across this site enough times looking for info on this swap, so I figured I might as well join since this seems to be where most of that info is concentrated. I'm still a little confused about a couple of things, but I thought I'd at least introduce myself before I went and ...
