July 11, 201115 yr Author comment_538887 Not a whole heap going on... timing belt is done waiting for my new RWD water pump & genuine Toyota seals, which should be arriving within the week. never thought a couple of seals would give me such a headache! Report
July 11, 201115 yr Author comment_538931 thanks guys... still a couple more things to do before I'm happy with it, like paint the engine mounts and bracket stuff, put alternator back together, etc. Report
July 13, 201115 yr Author comment_539348 New GMB RWD water pump...picked it up for $18!! STILL waiting on toyota for gaskets and seals...apparently tomorrow is D-day :rolleyes: Report
July 25, 201115 yr Author comment_542331 The saga continues... Water pump housing is with my fabricator MLT323 getting the rear outlet welded up and cleaned up. Took my aw11 alternator in to Bankstown Auto Electrics to exchange for a reco one and get the t3 pulley fitted. Turns out I need to get the pulley bored out as the shaft on the aw11 alternator is a little thicker than the ae86 one, so machinist will hook that up. Anyone else had experience with aw11 alternators on rwd setups? Report
August 14, 201115 yr Author comment_546607 Some more progress on the weekend. Painted up the engine mounts and THIS CLOSE to mounting the motor back in the enginebay, but lack of fasteners… Will post up pics and more progress soon. Report
August 16, 201115 yr Author comment_547139 Painted engine mounts: W58 Before: After: Porn shot of my Toyota playground: oh, and picked up an old RWD hilux diff (the one with straight axle tubes)…so the mad scientist can fix the stuff-ups by KCDR Drivertrains.
