  1. Those dragways are period correct, prolly look good on my XT130, what would you put on it?
  2. Swap the car, swap the engine to 1J, wheels are good just needs low
  3. Ahh trouble shooting at its best, haha vvt cams, bloody bumtree, I'm sure matty spry could have picked up the drop in power, should hydro dip some engine bits, i got a car here you should get ideas from, a TTLSX
  4. Gee i really got to give david that bonnet stand, eesh
  5. It's a 2J, runs high 8's last i seen
  6. And smell of fruity berry bang
  7. If in the event of a crash you may move forward, you don't want the steering shaft to impale you, hence why they have collapsible columns that crush and prevent this, you do need to check the regs and the event you wish to attend for harness locations, steering and cages, get a hyundai excel, cheaper to race
  8. don't forget about a collapsible steering column also
  9. Get an engine mounting kit from jordan at KE conversions, Hilux and pugeot brake upgrade will suffice, chuck in KYB coilovers and XT130 tops later on
  10. Think everyone in the complex should chip in $200 for a hoist
  11. Have put the car back together for the next round of Fabrication, was hoping to not send it off again, but might as well get exhaust done at the same time, Here is a few more pics of the Escort Crossmember with Rack and Pinion, Closer look at the mounts either side Gearbox mount Heres a little bonus ive picked up, instant anti-dive kit, ill get an angled bracket welded to the cooler/radiator bracket, think i might have saved a few hundred bucks off a kit from the UK Here she is back together, have to find or make a new Turbo manifold as changed the rear housing to a T3 frame Novelty pic, having the youngen helping out
  12. The dustless blasting i have seen is rather tricky, although it's good and enviro friendly and cost effective, depending on the body can blow holes, extra care needs to be taken, won't be a problem if your guy has done lots of cars
  13. Nothing much, but got more space the Cressida is out of The Ark, now have space to allocate parts to work on, I have painted the rear of the underside etc, had some time thought id put the rear end back in Next is to get the Brembo rears on, being an internal handbrake is proving tricky, but appears can be done
  14. Doing what exactly? Haha
  15. Where is the other engine?
  16. BBQ power a 2RZ will be good
  17. Driver hoop and you'll me 6sec ANDRA tech haha, nice work
  18. You should put a bar in front of those box links from the cage to make rigid under load, Here's mine in the Cortina
  19. Thread Revival, so for those who might be interested NISROLA is still alive, and now rolling a Beams engine, New owner has done some minor changes, but good to see she is now being put to use, and will be registered again, eventually
  20. Interesting concept there, this could be a way to side intrusion bars in a sense for street cars, You tagging the front to the oem floor seat bracket?
