Danube_3KGTs engine fun time!
So, for those of you who don't know I messed up my engine swapping my lifters to 99's.. (If you need help doing the lifters I know how now, and am willing to help on a day off) Well, some local members came over last week and I came home to a 3000GT with no engine in it, an engine sitting out side a car and a few pictures of my baby rolling around in what was supposedly "Cancer causing oil" :lol:..

Anyway, Since my oil pan was dented due to jacking the motor up on it (I'll take the blame for this as well thought i was assured it wouldnt happen by someone) they decided to pull the whole motor (way easier to change the pan) and basically since the engines out I might as well make it sexy while its out.. I figured I'd create its own little thread so I can post up everything going on, and everything that still needs to happen and you guys can stay tuned if you'd like..
So far I have purchased a lot of parts: Water pump, timing belt, timing belt tensioner, tensioner pulley, 10.2 spark plug wires, fuel rail loop and 6 NGK Platinum spark plugs (I hate waiting for parts to ship and theres a lot still out there somewhere!)
How ever I still need a lot of parts: Timing Belt Idler Pulley DOHC, Valve stem seals, Timing belt idler pulleys and cam shaft seals (x4), Oil pump and oil pump gasket, and a front crank seal.. (Im sure I'll figure out more to buy but for now thats it)
Fuel rails and my new Fuel rail loop:
So, I bought this loop a week or so ago on 3SI

and decided to edit/install it on my fuel rails after I "edited" them as well.. What do you think?!
