Possibly. Pretty much handle the north east for work. Getting to be able to drive my car is the tough part. Due to liability issues my employer tends to not like the idea. I'm just lucky this time this in jersey this week. From there I will finish the drive to Alabama.

Well unfortunately timing did not work out in my favor so the car will not be running until the Harvest Event over LDW. Here are a few pics of the current state:

I have been told that the bumpers have been installed and final prep work is being done. It should be in paint by mid week!

I have arrived at the shop. some work will not get done as we just plain ran out of time, but here are a few teasers:





retrofit from a Lexus IS-F:











So one of the bummers is that the shop wasn't able to do any of the airbrush work. One of the items that had been modified is the indent for the Toyota logo as the shop was supposed to airbrush a 3D emblem. The indent was filled with a steel insert to bring the area flush as if it were never there. Since that isn't happening now I am considering using my Turbo emblem in its place like this:






Thoughts?

Been dealing with a fuel issue since about 300 miles into thw drive back from Alabama. I called and spoke with both Tomei and AEM as they are the vendors for the AFPR and FP. When I spoke with Taka at Tomei he pretty much said that their S AFPR even though is good for over 100psi of FP shouldn't be used with more than 12psi of boost. He suggested to upgrade to the L model however I decided instead to go with an Aeromotive A1000 AFPR. Even after the AFPR replacement the symptoms continued.

Essentially when I build boost past 5-6psi my FP bottoms out and I go stupid lean. I spoke with AEM further and they wanted me to ship them the FP to have that tested and possibly replaced. The problem with that is they take 7 to 10 business days to perform this action which I do not have so I decided to see if CTScott could perform a teat for me with him closed system he built. He called me after simulation of over 40 minutes and stated that the FP itself is good and he was actually amazed at how much their 320lph can handle/flow. After heavy discussion we think that the wiring itself is the issue since the AEM uses 15 amps at just nominal FP.

We are going to be bypassing the relay in the ECM and direct wiring 10 guage wiring to the ignition side of the electrical system. We think that we may have begun to degrade or damage the wiring somewhere in the mix. Scott sent the FP back out in the mail so if all goes well I will have further answers and a solution before mid week. This is definitely a stressor since I am down to 12 days from the beginning of the racing event.

Not showing any issues right now with the alternator keeping up. Received the FP back from Scott today and reinstalled it with bypassing the stock wiring connector on the lid of the tank. Problem is gone. We drilled/routed new wiring to a new relay right next to the stock connector with a specialty grommet. This is a major relief so noq we can move on to installing the new TB, cage, fire system, exhaust dump, and TRD Trans mount once it arrives from MI later this week. My buddy will be picking up the 2 pails of C12 on Friday.

Speed record certificates arrived from the Harvest 2014 runs. 12 total top speed records set across engine displacement sizes from mine to one that is more than twice mine with it being over 3 litres! Not too shabby for a lowly 1.5 litre Yaris!
