Update 24-12-2012:

Engine & Transmission are in! That purple manifold is slowly growing on me to be honest. What do you think?

Engine mounts looking good

Just can't get enough of this engine

http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/q...p/DSCN0535.jpg

Aftermarket swaybars shouldn't be a problem I guess

This is an awesome build! Are you planning to paint the car too? It would b a good time to do a colour change while the motor is out.

No plans on painting the car now to be honest, and let's just say the engine should be out again in summer haha

Damn Sam this is insane! Do you have this posted on myg37 too? If not I'll stay tuned on this over herrrrre

Yup it's on myG37 too man

Turbo oil feed

Cool project, but why would you do this if you said you didnt want to sell your kidney to fund a build this is a lot more than your standard VQ build.

DAN

In for more....do you plan to run OEM gauges (like spedo/rpm/etc. and A/C controls)?

I still haven't crossed the price of a GTM Turbo Kit :) And that's with both the engine and transmission swapped.

My shift knob is here :D

That sway bar is a little too close to what looks like an idler pulley, wonder if it can be relocated. Bummer I was hoping to go with thicker sways.

Customized adapter for the clutch pedal

http://i451.photobucket.com/albums/q...pscc1a79b9.jpg

And another one for the accelerator

Update 08-01-2012:

Great news! The car was started to check for leaks, minor leak in the turbo oil feed was fixed and MAN did it sound like a monster. Stay tuned for video's ;) If everything goes as planned she should be going for ECU wiring & exhaust fabrication tomorrow. Fingers crossed. Here are some pics for now.

Oil cooler is in
