I forgot, which rear diff are you using now? What will your speeds at redline look like for each gear?

Brake set-up is looking pretty solid. ;)

Awesome! Glad this part of project went well for you and you can kinda 'close the book' on it before moving forward.

My stock SC300 manual rear diff is 4.08, which 1st gear is basically worthless once you're making power on my 5spd. So once switching to a 6spd, it'd make it even that much more worthless. The stock 98+ SC400/SC430 is 3.26, and is what I'm now running. That is the same ratio as the JDM TT 6spd Supra's. USDM have a 3.13.

Speeds I don't know, but it should end up being very similar to a stock TT 6spd Supra. The rear diff is close, the 350z trans gearing is close.

Game on, time to start draining fluids, and get that pig outta the engine bay!

Also, picked up a set of BC valve springs from MAPerformance. Thanks again Chris!

Well got about a 2hr start on it today. Got the oil, coolant, and PS fluid drained. Got the work area taped off since I know it's going to become a tool rack and I'd like to keep the paint as nice as possible. Got the front bumper removed, FMIC and piping removed, bunch of stuff unplugged and labeled. Slowly but surely is the way I work now-a-days :) Leaving it like this for the night, will hopefully get another couple hour crack at it tomorrow!

Is this the ignition/forward facing intake and ghetto-pipe delete portion? Will this allow you to do something with the MAF then as well?
