Thumbs up *Picture Intensive* Twin Turbo Swap & AWD Conversion on ReD3kgt95r's 1995 3000GT Base

James (ReD3kgt95r) really loves his red 95 base. he got in touch with me to help him take it to the next level. this 2 week project also broke in my new shop






the engine bay was filthy due to various leaks, an under hood wiring fire, and c/v axles that flung grease everywhere. something needed to be done.

Default I graduated ReD3kgt95r's 1995 3000GT base into Manhood!

i contacted James when i got the n/a engine out, and told him that it would be a shame to drop the new engine in without doing something about the condition of the filthy engine compartment. i really wanted a power washer for my new shop, so i bartered with him and he bought me one to deep clean the engine bay












a really big improvement after degreasing and power washing.













but it still doesn't look great with all the scratches, faded paint and rust that was hidden by all the grime. so i told James that now would be the time to spend just a little more time tearing things down and prepping for paint

so i taped everything off, and James rattle canned the hi temp paint & clear. it would have been nice to have 2 part base and clear in the budget, but it wasn't.










while that was drying, the front sub-frame needed attention badly.

heres how i easily removed and reinstalled the front sub-frame.








next up, i converted the 1995 non-turbo wiring harness to work with a 1991 TT ecu and low impedance injectors the TT engine uses.







here are my notes i posted up on the wall to figure out the wiring. the sun and heart my girlfriend colored turned out to be an integral part of the engine wiring harness conversion.






here James is restoring the rear sub-frame, that was used as an anchor on a salt water ship for 15 years. i didn't take any before pics of it, but the entire thing was encrusted in rust, almost every piece of hardware broke upon removal, i've never seen a part from our cars so rusty. James busted his ass and wire wheeled the whole thing down and put some 2 part anti-rust self etching primer on it. lots of work.








the shopping cart turned shop cart has been very handy ever since it appeared in front of my shop a few weeks ago.

now that the front end of the car is back together, it's time to start the AWD conversion.










now it's a welding cart


25 year old hair follicle fail, it could be from my brain overheating with ideas.






James's hard work paid off with the restoration work on the rear end.


see how the FWD studs are too short in length and diameter to pass though the AWD rear subframe rear mount.

rearward drive-shaft mount that has been waiting for use since 1994!


forward drive-shaft mount that needed slight modification by cutting a hole, dropping down a bolt, and welding it in place.

and it even made the 45 min drive home with no problems!
