The swap was started at 8:30a, 8:32 to be precise that's when the first two pics were taken. By 11 basically, the old engine was out and the tranny was bolted up to the gte waiting for engine mounts. at exactly 1:03pm the engine was in with both the tranny and the engine bolted up. PS: car is on jackstands that's why its high off the ground, notice tires not touching the ground.... and yes my tires all have wires sticking out of them. its been over a year with these tires its their time to go...

thanks guys, thank you! the thing is that my parents didnt want me swapping the engine so i did it one day as soon as they left for work, i needed to have it finished before they got home. lol. that's why i wanted to and needed to do it less than one day. lots of pm's and emails about my swap! more than happy to answer you guys!
as for the engine its JDM speck, im getting oem US supra cams or 264 cams and ill go single soon.... the exhaust is straight 3" no nothing, i want to do cut weld bends later. i had bought a whole aristo front clip.. it was 3g but prices have changed.
so about 4.5 hours, started at 8:30a to 1:05p.
