ae95- wagon kid

my dad just brought a 1983 720 ute and i love it 4spd 1800 engine uncracked dash overrated interior minor rust nothing i can't fix large tray 122000 kms original new radiator new exhaust and all sorts of other things silver paint - bonnet faded dual cab will post pics soon plans 32/36 weber kit mild cam nothing major extractors better paint rust repair then leave the rest

put a hectic ls1 and a turbo :P

I used to come on every day but for some reason its a bit boring now its all the same posts that people have just added replies too or ke70 driftaz or silly questions that have been answered 1000 times mostly about ke70's no offense to ke70's or their drivers. :happy:

mate if you want it running perfectly take it to someone who knows what they are doing and get a really good tune it will cost more but if you supply the bits they need it will be cheap

wow i just found this and i think it looks SEXY

rb30 with a rb26 head mmmmmmm

right i can get a haltech piggyback for 1500 installed and tuned any good

mechanical injection , forged everything, monoblock, formula one style intakes and head design, bout 14.5-15.1 compression running methanol. av-gas titanium rods and pins a really good ecu/loom custom made run it like a dragster engine. the piston is basically half full of fuel 10,000 rpm rev limit then 7 psi and you will get the figures just thought i would add to this for the fun of it Harry

thought this was funny

i found this on my desktop thought i would post it up for the hell of it

The guys in good old zuid Afrika have a similar problem they also have a suitable solution http://edition.cnn.com/WORLD/africa/9812/11/flame.thrower.car/

ive been looking for a cheap wrecked sx seca for two years now they are getting alot harder to find because of the smallport

I'm looking for a St205 GT4 half cut i need to do some measurements and see if its cost effective for using engine, drivetrain in my ae95 found somebody who has already done this what do you guys think i am serious about doing this btw maybe not this year but probably the next

WOW

if you can fiberglass then do it make sure you get ALL the rust out and rust inhibiter once its back to bare metal then fiberglass and spray good luck with it mate

are you good at welding find someone who is and weld in some plate then skim it over with a good quality filler a and spray it you can fiberglass it but it will look like shit if you don't know what your doing just my 2 cents :happy: Harry

car is up on blocks atm and is in my driveway can't really get good pics when everything is done i will do a proper build thread there is still a lot of things to do cheers Harry

i may as well get an aftermarket ecu I'm thinking wolf 3d or a micro-tech whats the best option for bout 1000-1200 installed and tuned toyota ecu's are hard to do much to even with a piggyback

One thing that shits me is when you are driving on a country road at night being careful and a giant kangaroo jumps right in front of the car. my mate hit one in his subaru completely rooted it crushed the whole front and left meat pieces everywhere ouch!!!!

Have been looking around for an aftermarket ecu but found this http://www.dastek.co.za/ they have dealers in Australia and i am guessing i can get it tuned at a dyno what do you guys think has anybody used them a few guys in south africa have had good results with these regards Harry

3uz-fe sounds good to me lol bet this would be a hoot if you could get it to fit that is

Getting defected for anything and everything in adelaide it really makes you not even want to own a car or work on one knowing it will get picked by the police once its defected its a real pain to get it off at regency and if they don't like you they will always find something to not let it pass like my friends dad's ute after his 4th attempt when he was frustrated enough they didn't lift the defect because there was 1.1 mm of paint overspray on the indicator he took it outside and took it off with acetone and had to pay another fee to have it looked at ' i think they found something again finally after around 4 grand of trying to get it off he finally did it and lost all respect for the police and the the government great isn't it hey

Yep i totally agree either your day or your whole life.

so is this going ahead?????

I have worked on engines most of my life just not toyota engines you can't really get much more simpler than a k series but i have worked on many single over head cam engines mostly old Gemini's, Datsun's, and a rather oily and ancient Hit and miss engine from god knows when. i am only 18 but i know alot more about old engines than some of the mechanics that are only trained to plug into a diagnostics port. regards
