To properly start a new progress thread, the new vehicle must be shown. So here we go.
Now that is complete, we move on to this weekends fun. Majority of items needed to accomplish the clutch change. Prepped work area. Should be an eventful weekend. Plans for this weekend: (Let see how many I actully complete) Clutch swap over riser blocks swap over rear ssIII splitters swap over highs and projectors ( Remove OEM casing from light, and apply to projector broken casing) Covert connectors. install headunit with proper facekit wire in amp, and subs. remove rear seats Thats a hefty list, but I think I can do it. I'll damn well try. Hoping the locals have their earplugs ready. Any of you Floridians want to come to Gainesville? I'll supply beer, pizza, and California type headache relief |

A freshly rebuilt S54 Transmission. Free of charge!
The story goes, this lady send a celica in to get repaired, they rebuilt the transmission, but found issue with the engine during the process. Since it was only a transmission shop, they sent it to somewhere to do the engine work, but was later found to be to expensive on top of the current transmission build, so they took the trannie out, and scraped the celica or sold to shop from my understanding as is. Sat outside for a year, covered at least. They couldn't find anyone to buy it for what they paid in repairs, so they just posted it for free and I scooped it right up. So if the story is truthful, I have a freshly rebuilt S54 for the swap. I've turned the spline a bunch and it moves like butter, no apparent damage or binds. Havn't had a chance to shift it through gears, but so far it just looks a little ugly on the outside, but no rust, and the inside differental is clean as could be. So I think i'm good. And my axles came in for dirty weekend of fun. So if all goes well, and work isn't up my butt for once this weekend. New axles, seals, fluids. Then sand down, and bondo the dents, then paint the following weekend. |
