Project Useless.... Caged vert all riced out.

[ill roller]

Tons of time and money invested and its paying off! Looking great!

I'm not sure it's paying off yet, but it's definitely coming along... Hopefully the payoff will come soon.

Looks awesome! That shop looks badass too

Yeah, I have to give a big thanks to the guys at IND for not only giving me a good deal on paint/body work, but also letting me pull the motor at their shop, even into the wee hours of the morning...

Be sure to check them out at http://parts.ind-distribution.com/

And you can see some of the photo work I've done for them if you look at the projects/builds here:

Wow! Amazing progress and I cannot wait to see the end result!

Did some late night wrenching with some buddies and finally pulled the motor out, hoping to have the bay painted this week so the swap can get going... Drift events start in about a month, gotta get my ass in gear.





We also test fitted some wheels on my daily and pulled some collars off the coilovers on my buddy's 240.

please document the swap in depth. i've been tossing it around in my head going back and forth for a long while now.

p.s. did you ever sell the lexus? saw it on zilvia.

I will document as much of the swap as possible, but I'm worthless when it comes to fabrication and wiring, so a shop will be doing the swap... In good news, maybe if there's some interest I can talk to them about making some sort of a mount/swap kit for sale.

As for the lexus, I had two, and I posted them both for sale. I parted and sold my SC300, and kept this guy here:

Nice nice nice nice nice.

Did you rob the wheel from a VW Harlequin? :D

Haha, its actually a momo benetton f1 wheel. I did get it for next to nothing from a buddy under the condition that I sell it back to him for the same price if he ever gets a Harlequin.

great project! perhaps we'll see eachother at a meet this summer.

Most definitely, I'll be out and about in this thing whenever I can be once it's done.

Unnecessary update!

A little taste of the parts pile:

Collection of cool things...



Now if the body shop would get the engine bay painted it would be swapping time.

Nice nice nice nice nice.
