So I'm guess an aristo block is different then a supra/sc300 2jz motor considering the mounts don't fit or does it have another set of holes to mount the motor mount bracket for supra /sc300 2jz motor mount.

How to install diff bushings


1. Removed your rear differential from your car

2. Take a plumber touch (25 bucks from home depot) and heat the metal bushing where the bolt goes through up from the inside of the bushing. Once the rubber gets soft you can hit it out with a hammer. You will need to reuse these so don't mess them up.

3. Now take a chisel or punch and slowly hit the bushing out (you should see a little lip of the bushing sleeve on the differential ear use to hit the sleeve out). Make sure you go around the bushing sleeve and hit it out evenly. You don't want to have it cock sideways because it will make it harder to come out. It doesn't take that much force for the sleeve to come out. I did it with a rivet gun (air hammer) with a chisel attachment. 

4. Install the poly bushings and slide the metal bushing that you beat out earlier into the poly bushing. 


Total time - 10 mins.

Finished Diff with poly mounts.



Modifying the CX turbo manifold with a tial 38mm flange.



I work up early today and got some work done on the car. I removed the driver side axle so I can install the TT 6 speed drive axle. The driver side axle is 547.5 mm (21.555 inches) long which is measure from mating surface of the drive axle to the diff all the way to right before the spline right after the ABS gear. The passenger side should measure 598.5mm (23.602 inches). The picture in the TRM is not exact so if you have both the axles one should be about two inches longer than the other. I have one TT axle that came with my swap. I have been searching all day for the length on the axles. Hopefully the axle that I have is the shorter driver side TT axle for the 6 speed. I am pretty sure you can use the Sc300 passenger axle with a supra TT 6 speed diff, but I don't think you would want to as the TT axle are way beefier. I will be installing the diff when I get off work in the morning hopefully all the parts that I have are correct.




Final installation of the turbo manifold. The oil drain is posing a problem. I don't have enough room for the AN fittings. I am really leaning towards making a hard pipe. What has other people done to fix this issue. I don't want to clock the turbo too much because I'm worried the turbo won't drain properly. 








Beside that issue I'm pretty happy with the wastegate placement. I was measuring the sc300 driver side axle and its only .2 longer than the supra 6 speed axle. Will that .2 inches make that big of deal?
