Stopped work on this for a few days due to a nasty reaction to a fly bite on my arm, but all good so back into it.....
stripped more of the inside out. Disconnected the battery first and took out interior roof, inside panels and stereo cables (the less wires in there the less il get confused )
Then took the battery out, the induction kit came out and also the cusco strut brace
I have a fuel pressure regulator running on the 4efe engine so had a look to get familiar with pipes etc... so il know where things will go (might not use it with the beams at first until she's up and running properly)
Power steering pump and hoses
Drained radiator and took it out, along with reservoir bottle
Mock fitted the celica rad, just to see. (gonna be a tight fit!)
Took it back out and put the Corolla rad and Celica rad side by side just to show the size difference
Labeled a few things in the engine bay (pipes from fuel pressure regulator, intake pipes etc...)
put the induction kit onto the beams nice!!
Then it started pissing, so work stopped for today! balls!!
F&%k u rain!!
More tomorrow

I felt the same way this morning when it started raining because I just washed my car yesterday and had it looking all mint
Nice progress so far. Good idea to label all the hoses etc. I hope you'e not planning on using that intake on the 3S-GE though . It'll suck up tonnes of hot engine bay heat and make it run like crap. I put a short ram intake on my brother's 3S-GTE once and it was crap. It will be a piece of cake to make a cold air intake for your engine. Make it the same way as I made mine, with the filter sitting where the intake resonator box used to be. Someone even made a DIY for it based on my instructions. I can give you the link if you like
