March 17, 201016 yr comment_422460 Hey guys, just thought i'd share my project with yas :wub: SPECS: CAR: KE70 flat front ENGINE: 1UZ-FE from a toyota celsior TRANSMISSION: T56 TREMEC 6 SPEED from a vx commodore (custom flywheel and clutch kit made by extreme in adelaide) DIFF: G-series hilux diff SUSPENSION: will be S13 coilovers when i find a set for the right price (running S13 front brakes aswell) EXHAUST: will be custom extractors when the motors all in and twin 2.5" pipes going to twin 2" pipes both sides at the rear WHEELS: I'm thinking along the lines of performance challengers in 15x8s so thats pretty much it... ive got the engine sitting at my mates house, my gearbox is in adelaide getting the flywheel and clutch kit made, my ke70 is mostly stripped waiting to have the 1uz put in place... still need to get the suspension and shit... and put it all together lol...

March 19, 201016 yr comment_422936 Holy mother of Jebuz. Gearbox is a monster, T56 I presume? Edit, re-read the first post. Edited March 19, 201016 yr by SLO-030 Report
March 19, 201016 yr comment_422939 are you going to cut and shut the firewall to get the weight back, with that box you will be sitting in the back seat main problem is getting the drivers side exhaust to clear the steering rod to the rack... floor mounted pedalsand remote reservoirs needed also i have done this conversion but with an r154 instead, good luck with it Report
March 23, 201016 yr comment_423743 that gearbox is going to weigh more than the corrolla itself. nice lookin shed you got your halfcut sitting in there... Report
March 23, 201016 yr Author comment_423861 haha, thanks guys, yeah that box is huge... custom trans tunnel is in order... gonna start looking at it soon. I'm thinking of mounting it way back to keep the center of gravity good. shifter position shouldnt be too much of a hassle as there is another mounting point for an after market shifter which sits 10" futher forward than the original... only thing is that its about $350 for the kit but i guess if it need doing its gotta be done and at least itll be further back :sob: ive got the box back now and the new clutch/flywheel setup :) its very pretty :jamie: I'm going to be using the standard VX pedal box for this conversion as it came with the box as well as the master cylinder... bit of cutting and shutting and ill make it fit :) car dumped as its got my 6 speed in the back haha giving credit to the people who've helped me mmm custom :) pretty :P just my suzuki filled with tyres and with my 50kg dog in the front seat hehe Report
