Project Delilia

[TheGoodGuy]

Here is what it looked like after the pull in the engine bay. Cleaning has to be done, I know is a Ole Supra, but I trying a ting. Delilia should have some fellas going for her man, when she done.. especially for what she got under the hood. Once your name not Samson you should survive.

Thats the face of a man who get blows from a car eh.. trust me. It's not anything close to what you think it is unless you in it for yourself and know. When the mechanic give you his price.. just pay d man.

Ill be posting more pics as soon as i make more progress and remember the camera. We gave the 5m/6m, one last start on the Saturday, wish I remembered the camera to give you guys a video to hear that haunt man... Upon pulling out the engine my father spotted what could have been a possible cause, the intake manifold had wholes in the running pipes.. so it may have been sucking air in through there instead of the throttle body. But to late now.

Thanks for viewing pics taken in far far far away garage. "A-me a-me a-me...Thats all fowks" -Porky Pig-

The engine harness can be removed.all the way to the ecu. That's the best thing to do. make life really easy for u. the old harness can be trashed. There will be plugs on the inside of the car where the ecu once was. those going to have like the Ignition switch signal, oil light, rpm, oil pressure signal, basically dash controls etc.

Hey while you have it strip down paint the engine bay.

[TheGoodGuy]

Yea all that is in the works. I think ill be power washing some area's next weekend. and sanding down the bay... There is some kinda rough coats of paint on it, not sure if its a rubberized paint or what. But..i like to see clean engine bays.. and engines.. want it to bling blaw.

Ladies and Gentlemen, behold the very rear and expensive R154 5 speed supra gearbox.. (and the crowd goes wild..). In the pic there is a TRD clutch on there and half of a Toyota flywheel, I also have a TRD pressure plate somewhere, but I am not sure if the diameters are consistent with those of the 2jz/1jz engines, but will find out soon.

Here we have the engine bay after the power wash last Sunday past 11th May 2008. Well actually the photo was taken on Tuesday, can spot that the bear metal has some surface rust from the moisture and over all it looks a little scary movie. There is no grease or oil or power steering/brake fluid anywhere which was what I was aiming for. Sanding will begin shortly, maybe spray with a coat of primer. The brakes thing has to be removed, and the master cylinder..one or two rubbers, the lines taped up properly etc before sanding or spraying. A work in progress. Amen
