It LIVES!!! just wanted to share the 3tc :P

after about a year of being in the garage...finding time away from family to help my neighbor work on his toyota and a shell change, some electrical problems from cables being bad to megasquirt being sent back for updated work....it lives! from carb to fuel injected... via megasquirt

30 lb injectors
currently ignition is still controlled via hall effect on distributor but that will change later
no wideband hooked up yet...
everything is ran via the startup injector pulse width ... and the VE tables
will probably hook up the wideband this weekend and that should greatly improve driveability...

soon to be turbod....

sorry...i dont know brandon...my neigbors a toyota 3tc nut since that was his first car in HS...can you believe my neighbor found that clean donor body in a used car lot...

the older cars are so easy to work on besides having frozen bolts once in a while...anyone know where i can find a cheap clean starlet :P

im pretty interested in tearing down his old engine from the donor body...putting in quality lowered CR pistons and rods...and rebuilding the spare rearend he has with a quality LSD and some gears.

I know a guy that has a '73 mango just a couple blocks over from me. Car's clean and the body looks pretty solid. I drool every time I drive past it. I doubt that he'll be wanting to sell it though.
