I just got done ripping out the motor, transmission and the complete rear suspension assembly today. Hopefully we'll be able to minitub it next weekend.
Picked up the new transmission on Friday.
Had my Ford 8.8 and 4.56 gears delivered today.
I work monday-friday so my only days to work on it is saturday and sunday.

The big tub 1/2 chassis look is on its way out...i think.
Jeminez 80 rolla ran a 8.90 @ 147 with no tubs.. oh and 1.8..
See it can be done.. 26x8.5..

The car same right off the trailer and onto jackstands. The motor, transmission and the complete rear suspension/rear end assembly has been removed.
I'm going to be using a 13B / S400 turbo combo

first saw the car on toyota3tc.com and just wanted to say its pretty badass
i wanted to know if you think 4.10 gears on my yota truck rear would be too high for this because i already have it in and wasnt exactly sure if i would have to find another
but other than that cant wait to see more

Well, I've decided to cut the mini-tubs out by myself tommorow. I was going to have someone do the minitubs for me but he's not available this weekend.
Should be interesting, I'll be sure to take some pictures.
FYI: This car will be driven on the street as well as the track.

Bout time you got a mixed use project car. Good find. That's one clean Toyota. I've always wanted one for an SR or RB Nissan swap =)

Was too busy to cut out the mini-tubs last weekend. This weekend should be a go.
This car is ridiculously light, I could easily flip this car over if I wanted to.
