  1. Bought a new T18 last night and found out that the headlights don't work, now I tested the relay and is fine, the fuses are fine, the headlight switch I think is fine? as I had another one from my other T18 an it did the same but it was pretty average as it's been sitting around getting thrown around. Wireing appears to be fine, not getting power to fuses or relay so I would think it's the wiring, if anyone has any more ideas help! haha.

     

    EDit, Horn and hazard lights aren't working as well, I hate electrical problems! If anyone wants to swap for a mechanical problem I will certainly do that!, haha.

     

    Another edit: all wiper functions and park lights operate fine.

  2. Faaarrrr out 4age conversions are expensive!

     

    I've probably spent under 10k including the purchase cost of my T18 with 1uz conversion.

    That's the price I ended up paying for the shell minus selling some stuff like the old t series and pedal box and buying the following

    1UZFE - FREE! bought a whole celsior for 1k and parted out got money back

    gearbox adaper setup - $1100 everything except for box it's self

    2X R155 hilux boxes tailshaft and shifter $1100

     

    Rear end

    Coilovers - $500

    hilux diff cost $400 and I did all the mounts myself

    Rear supra brakes cost $300 all up huge things!

    $100 for new axle bearings

    and just locked diff for now.

     

    Front -

    coilovers $600

    T3 wilwwod setup - ended up costing $300 because someone wanted JDM 86 brake baaaddd.

    hubs and new bearings - $100

    rose jointed lcas - $80

    kelway steering arms - $200 odd

    castor arms - $150

     

    Floor mounted pedal box - $330 delivered

    driver sparco and pass bride seats with proper rails $500

     

    Fuel cell - $200

    surge tank and 2 pumps - $200

    fuel and brake lines where about $100 too.

    sheel ended up costing $500 after selling a buch of crap off it.

     

    Thats the majority of it but there would be probably another $1000 in other junk so there's about 8k (around 9 including cams cage which will be done later) for the whole car done but all done myself.

     

    It's close to being done well has to be done for matsuri, haha.

  3. No offense but I would rather ʞ©$ɟed or no bumpers than what has been done to those... Although some retard at work painted his bumpers on an old shitbox laser purple on a white car which probably looks worse, haha.

  4. Jack it up and put it on stands? 2 bolts to get tailshaft out of the way, 2 bolts for slave, gearbox xmember bolts then maybe use a jack to support it or just leave one of the bottom box bolts in undo all the rest then pull out the last one which I leave in the easiest spot to get to and just get under the car and pull the box out they're not a heavy box.

  5. Haha I had my engine and box out of the T18 in under and hour started just as the love boat started at 10 I think, got it all out and cam up stairs and was still on haha. And that was without any engine crane just jack and stands just took out whole xmember and box as one but I do have an air compressor but sucks working on cement that is like a ditch,ahaha.

     

    Also shouldn't need a jack to pull out a T-50 should be able to just get under the car and pull it out.

  6. Could get it out on the ground in a half hour if not quicker pretty easy if you have access to an air compressor and rattle gun makes life so easy, then a hoist makes thing even easier can get 4x4 hilux box out in 15 minutes on a hoist at work, haha.

  7. Not sure how long the paint on calipers would last? looks nice and thick though. I never really bothered with painting things like that if I could be bothered a quick lick of black and be done with it, haha.
