Engine is a good fit.
You're not missing a black marker pen are you?
It's on top of your left chassis rail!

Next step is a Torsen diff and tuffening up that auto. I'm going to make a go of the auto, rather than nursing a W58 or hammering an R154 into place. I've seen some JZA80s with strong autos doing good stuff. And with the auto, I can stick to my story at the RTA that the conversion was for "towing the caravan, mate!"

Some old shots are still at: http://www.celicasupra.com/justin.htm
And, yeh, that's a 2.5TwinTurbo badge on the grille - off a wrecked JZA70. Buggered if I can get a high enuff resolution photo of the whole car with the badge big enuff to read.

hmmm i really like those wheels. the badge is a cool idea too 
just a question, what kind of help did the air filter on the 5M-E do, if anything?

Those old wheels are all over the place (I think Norbie has them on his Celica). Unfortunately, the ones I had, were a bad offset for the Scoopra. Since sold em to a Sprinter driver.
Airfilter on 5ME is ESSENTIAL! It makes a reallu nice sound at WOT!  Previous owver had also made up a custom intake tube - which looked like someone stuck a drainpipe on the engine.
Thanks for the nice word.
