Tyler's Stealth RT Twin Turbo to '99 3000GT VR4 Conversion


So if you guys have been following the Facebook page or my Instagram @lexilaron, you would have seen this car.


Even better you may have seen the picture showing the drastic difference between what this car looked like one month ago and what it looks like now.


About two months ago, Tyler was still driving this jolly green giant with two big 'ol centrifugal pumps force-feeding mass amounts of air into the V6 power plant while at the same time looking for a daily driver to use while he was building his car.

Only a couple of weeks into this decision, Tyler came across a Toyota Camry needing only minor work.  He picked it up for only a couple hundred of dollars, did some work to reset the timing and replace some oil pump gaskets, got it registered and inspected, and viola-- his 3000GT was sitting on jack stands in his garage.


So while we work on changing this car over from something like this:


To something more like this:


I'll be documenting his build as best as possible to bring you the best of content on this process.

Tyler drilling out his old headlight buckets' spot welds with a drill.

Until next time, stay tuned to Lexi.Laron.
