Just saw this thread - it's gonna be good!

Kurt and Liz take your time and keep warm - the car/swap will still be there once the ice/snow thaws.

This is going to be one clean, mean coupe!

Has no more Celicas
It would be nice to have a good garage to work in since we have all this time off of work. Boo for having a ****ty garage. .lol
Once all the ice is gone well be getting the coupe back in the garage an start getting work done
Just need to deside if I'm paint the valve covers a different color or not

Finally got another break in the below freezing temps we've had an got some more work done.

Block is clean an painted.

Trans is done

Desided to paint the timing cover
Still not 100% sure if I like it or not but its done.
Hopefully tomorrow I can get the motor an trans back together.

At least the motor is back in the car. Not done yet but had a friend come up and helped Kurt get it that far
I'll get this updated after this weekend.
The motors in now just have to hook it all back up
Goal was to finish it this weekend but unfortunately I was sick Sunday frown.gif

Sorry to hear you were sick, but at least you're really close to being done.

What are you using for shift cable bushings? Looks like dirty rubber ones to me....


Might I recommend a set of these....

Also, on a semi-related note - I changed my rear bank valve cover gasket last weekend, and I realized how much of a PITA it is to get back there. I had to remove pretty much all of the vac lines up top, remove the upper intake manifold, wrestle with the harness, blah blah blah blah.

From the website...
" **these do not fit the 93-99 celica,"
Pish posh. Make it fit.

I had a set I put on my e153.
They work ok but when I tried to remove them they were rusted and seized onto the arms in no time. Destroyed them getting them off.
Waste of $ for me.

Kurt,. found a couple of these on toyota nation,.

This one is at 2500 but there was another for 2k since you're one of the 1mz pioneers, you should probably be first with this, and share your experience, so I know if it is worth the $$$
