Update:


Did major work today, got so many things installed. Pretty much the only things left are the intake manifold, wiring harness connections, intercooler piping, fan, fan shroud, power steering line, fluids, blah blah. 


I do have to install an -AN fitting on the turbo inlet pipe for the catch can. I will also have to make the lines too. I have some new coolant hoses coming Tuesday. I noticed that we somehow cracked the oil filter housing, not the actual oil filter, and so I will have to go to the junkyard in the morning. There is 1 SC300 at upullandpay. I hope the engine is still there. Overall not a bad day, tomorrow will be just as long. 




So as I suspected, Upullandpay didn't have the part I needed, the whole motor was gone from the car.

I need one of these If anyone has one, please let me know ASAP.




Meanwhile at the Bat Cave:


While at the junkyard I found a RX300 with a steering wheel. I took it and installed it into my car. If I find a 2001 RX300 with the wood grain steering wheel, I will take that too. I like the 3 spoke wheel so much more.






Update:


Installed the valve cover. Tried to build the lines for the catch can. I ordered an -AN fitting wrench. Nicked up a fitting pretty good, so I ordered a new one. The wrench is non marring, so next time I won't mess up anything.
