so i got a clutch master cylinder on the cheap($42.00 shipped). saved me $60+. iam kind of a big deal..

7-24-2011

so it's been hot as **** recently here in m.o. so that makes my job harder(duh). But i have to get this damn thing running by winter so i can get another suby daily so i can finally invest in the stock market and take over the world.

So ive never really removed a tq converter before. On my 240sx i left it on the block as i sent the single cam to the scrap yard. On my donor sc300 i left it on the block untill the other day(when this happened)..

so i had my engine/tranny on my stand and i removed the tranny(check). then i was taking the bolts off the tq converter. The engine leand forwaRd a little when i took the final bolt off from the flywheel.

but when i slid the ****ing doughnut off(which i didn't know these things were that ****ing heavy). My ****ing engine tilted forward and my damper lip(outside-fanbelt). got chipped and broke the fall..

OUCH!!! Yeah iam a cock-sucker. But "even monkeys fall from trees". So surveying the damage..

There goes my minty new damper pulley. So while it was down there i took the opp to take off the fkn flexplate.

i had to use one of my magnum rubbers to help me get the engine right side up.

so after a few knick-nacks. I wanted to remove the harness and box it up with the sc4 oem one to be ready to ship.

none told me "hey you got to remove the ****ing intake" just can't be easy right..

and here is the damn thing. Pretty long for something that was cut somewhat...

anybody know what sensor this is??? it was on my ge block so it's not unheard of(unless it's me).

so iam trying to clean my oil pan from my ge car. And it's grimer than ****..iam soaking it in soapy water. using brillo pads. and now were using engine cleaner..

iam thinking i need an oven brush?? Dosen't have to be perfect, just want some of that old grime gone. Well thats all i have now. Have to get the damn turbo changed out on the rb so we will see. and still abt $4k away from getting this thing running.. so yeah
