1JZKe55

Cheers guys :P It's always good to hear what other people think of it Well it's finally back at my house now

ha you wouldn't even know there's a 1JZ sitting in it :D finished the cage off and primed up all the inside of the car looks soo much better in 1 colour

Hey it wasn't that bad once i worked it all out the rack is untouched we ended up cutting down the tie rod's and re tapping them all up it took me about 20hours then another 10 to do the steering column half 55 half 70 cost about $300 in parts to do the conversion

started putting the rolla back together ready to move it :jamie:

hey mate I like it looks very neat :jamie:

ha ha about the biggest shed i could get would be about 2mx3m lol my block is tiny with a big 3bed room house on it knew i should have made it smaller when i was building it lol

Hey I've been looking at shed's for the last 2 weeks can't really find much worth having in my price range so i've been packing up everything and taking it home :wub: The worse bit is i've only got a small double carport at home and its already got 1 car in it :D

hey mate how's the build coming along

yeah it was good 1 of the best place's i've worked but when bill was in a bad mood start running lol and 1 of his daughters was hot as too >| which helped lol that val was sooooooo clean and it looked totally original untill you opend up the bonnet and seen a su feed turbo sitting there i used to get into a lot of trouble for laying rubber in it it would fry tires at 60km when you stomped on it down brighton road :lolcry:

hey mate you should be able to run up to 10 psi easy if your needle's and seat's are in good nick

hahahaha that's sooooo funny i did my apprenticeship at charlick's many a year ago lol good old Bill has he still got the blue val ute think it was a ap5 if i remember rite it had a snail under the bonnet when i was working there it went hard it did midd 12's

Hey guys here's something i came across on youtube thought you guys would like it

that looks tuff as mate i love it all you need now is a 1jz in :no2:

umm no way will that fit with out modifying fire wall and tunnel and if you fitted 1 with a front mounted sump it puts the motor too far forward no room for rad,thermo fans or intercooler and there's too much weight past the front wheels it will handle like poo

hey i'm looking for a shed to lease $500-$750 a month around lonsdale hackham area do any local guys know of any good 1's ????? a member of my shed has pulled out so we can no longer can keep it so me and my little bro(panel beater) are looking for 1

hey i'm looking for a shed or workshop to lease $500-$750 a month around lonsdale hackham area do any local guys know of any good 1's ????? a member of my shed has pulled out so no longer can keep it :no2: so me and my little bro(panel beater) are looking for 1

its got 3.70 in the arse end at the end of the day if we got into the mid 9 over the 1/4 i would be very happy i'm hopping for a 10 sec pass off the trailer if go's well

yeah the plan is to leave the motor standed at this stage but with all the bolt on's got a gt35r turbo custom exhust manifold 890cc injectors big waste gate the normal stuff looking for around 350+rwkw should be enough to make it fun to drive with a 5 speed :no2:

thanks mate :no2: yeah thing have been moving a bit slow the last couple weeks haven't had much time to work on it but i'll be into it over the weekend hopping to have the radiator and intercooler mounted and the rad support finished off then start prepping the engine bay for paint the colour is kingston blue colour code is AY 1977-79

ha yeah i don't think i could squeeze anything bigger in there thats for sure looks like shit at the moment but i've got something up my sleeve that will make it look the part :yes:

started slicing and dicing the rad support today for the intercooler almost got it sitting where i want it

looks like i've got the supercharged rolla for the day not sure if the 1j is gonna make it tho :happy:

Hey yes your sooo right but somethings you can't stitch weld and has to be fully welded the fire wall was 1 of those the firewall is made of 6 individual bits of steel welded together if i stitched it together it wouldn't have enough strength in it you really gotta make sure when your welding that you get enough penetration in your weld you should be able to see it coming through to the other side of what ever your welding for those people who wanna seam weld their whole car don't your better off welding 25mm leave 40mm weld 25mm leave 40mm and so on just as strong and you wont warp your car as much :y: just something for the hell of it in the earlier photos of the car been held up by the block and tackle i welded 2 half chain links to the xmember just sort of an idea how strong my welding is i've passed all my x ray testing 1st time every time

thanks mate Its always good to hear what other people think of it :)
