WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SMELL!!!!!?!?!?!?!

Nah, this engine is from the AE111 which is the front drive corolla in japan. I'm crossing my fingers that I can find the guy on club4ag that makes the bellhousing conversion to swich from the butthole T50 trans to the W58 that's in the celica right now.

I think it'd be kinda neat to just say screw toyota and put a honda F20 engine from the s2000 in there. I'm not sure how reliable that swap would be though as a daily driver. The only thing I have to make sure I get right with the 4age swap is the motor mounts and a few wiring items(which I can do no problem). I'm probably gona have to have someone make me some motor mounts/change he location of the chassis motor mounts. My stick welding skills are fine on flat surfaces, weird angles I'm hit or miss.:rolleyes:
 
Nice clean engine bay by the way. You could eat off of that damn thing. I can't imagine it's still that clean driving around in this dirty ass town. :(

It actually stays pretty clean for some reason... I just avoid driving on gravel roads. I do need to clean it again. Degreaser, pressure washer, and plastic bags to cover up items that don't need to get wet, is all it takes.

I like pressure washing the entire engine without taking any precautions and then waiting 2 days for the water activated electrical gremlins to die! :D

Haha, I learned my lesson on that the first time I washed the engine bay of my old s10. I think it took about 5 hours for my fuel pump to start working again. Relays don't like water apparently. :laff::banghead:

Nor do spark plugs or distributors. Been there, done that :D.
 
That smell I smell all day? Its the nice salty air coming off the Chesapeake while I'm preflighting an airplane with a student 3,000ft from the water...life is good :-)
