Nice! Is your piping etc large enough in diameter to realise the full potential of the new beast, or are you making new bits?
Cheers

Just finished the CAD work for the new bracket :) Modifications were done as the new SC is slightly bigger and heavier. Also the the tapped thread for the Axle bearing stay had to be included as there will be the E153 with the turbo axles. I know everyone is thinking its a waste of material but i want it as a single piece. The block to machine weighs 45 Kgs and the final product only weighs 1.8 Kgs    Anyone want one, all the hard work has been done ?

Here you go. The body is about 15 mm all around bigger than the previous one but the shell end is much bigger. No worries for clearance as take 2 on the bracket ive moved it closer to the engine by about 1.5 inches as the pulleys will be smaller. There was about 3 inches clearance before so it will be even more now. Horizontal position is the same.

Today was great ordered my E153 from my local Toyota dealer at under $2,900 !
Im wrapped as it MUCH dearer than that but a friend /manager that works there pulled a few strings.
Now i dont have to worry about shipping etc gettimg it from the States or from my mate in Japan.
Apparently there are none in stock so there is an extra delay of 10 days till they make it

Machining has started today :) I do have the computer disc with all the CAD file for the bracket. If anyone heads down this route im more than happy to share the disc to anyone after proof that you have bought the SC. This pictures shows the overlay with the old bracket with the RED being the new one. Slightly taller but closer to the block so more space to the firewall

That seams a pretty good price for the box. I've just priced up bearings syncos and a few other things and it was just over 2g from the USA
