Apart from the rack and obviously crossmember what else did you swap for the box to rack conversion, we're you able to use the te column or did you swap it out for the ae71 unit. Looks good, I'm just starting my lift back project.

Bummer, so close with the 1uz being 3968cc, thanks for the clarification.

I have recently acquired an unbelievably rust free T18, i've always liked them since i got my licence and i like to be a little different. I've already sourced the replacement panels and lights for the slightly bent front end and my bumpers and beaver panel are off being repaired. And I'm about to start prepping the body for a fresh coat of the original white. Now to the point, i had my heart set on a vvti 1uz and w/r series box combo, i dunno wether qld has adopted ncop yet but if not they probably will have by the time I'm finished. As far as the engine capacity being 4x the vehicle weight, i can't find the exact weight of the T 18 but i know its around the 900kg mark. None of the i.d tags specify masses neither does the logbook or owners manual. Is it 4x the original weight, or 4x the weight when its finished, cause i could easily make it 1000kg to get it engineered.
