querulz Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 hi mate. what type of radiator you using? from what car? Quote
mrduke Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Posted July 6, 2011 I got it with my 4age stuff,i think it's out of a hyundai lantra.Heaps of other options would probably work too. I should have an ae82 radiator very soon from my front cut. I won't need it and will be sellin it off cheap. The conversion is actually pretty easy,ae71 stuff and it bolts straight in. Mine's just being a problem cause of the condition of the motor. Piece of advice,be sure of your motor or get one with a warranty. :wink: Hopefully have it workin by next weekend. Quote
mrduke Posted July 8, 2011 Author Report Posted July 8, 2011 got my front cut today,hooked up battery and she fired straight up on aerostart. sounded pretty good,car has 245000k's on it but will see how it goes. got the motor/box out and got em seperated. just gotta change over my stuff onto it. :wink: Quote
mrduke Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Posted July 11, 2011 new motor in today,now i hope it's just a case of drivin now. at least now i've got a spare 4age wiring loom and computer. :yes: Quote

ozyvr4 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 Good luck champ with the new donk. Hope it goes great mate. Quote
mrduke Posted July 12, 2011 Author Report Posted July 12, 2011 I'll take the camera to work if i remember and get some pics and put em up... Quote
mrduke Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Posted July 13, 2011 took some pics today. recommend doin the conversion,love the extra power. Quote
mrduke Posted July 16, 2011 Author Report Posted July 16, 2011 Cars good fun at the moment. stock tyres and wet roads are fun. turned out of street this mornin in a little slide,looked over :fuzz: luckily it was only paddy wagon. :huh: not that i condone irresponsible driving(but it is fun being able to do it).

mrduke Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Posted August 5, 2011 Finally goin well now,got the other motor in but the dizzy was pissing out oil straight onto exhaust. Nice smell. Changed over dizzy off other motor and thats fixed but it looks like one of the seals in the t/belt area is seepin so will have to change them next week. Get my tax back and the exhaust will be gettin finished,have pulled off the black strips off the side and will be polishing her up on the weekend. Took a coupla quick pics of her now,taking the strips off changes the look of the car a fair bit. Quote
dbr11k Posted August 5, 2011 Report Posted August 5, 2011 hell yea get this thing going and than put some big power at the treads .. sleeper FTW !!! Quote
rian Posted August 5, 2011 Report Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) Looks really good! I always liked the look of flat-front corollas better than shovel-nose until seeing your car, your car just looks way way better than most shovel-noses for some reason. :y: Edited August 5, 2011 by rianwest Quote
mrduke Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks Rian,it's really grown on me now. originally didn't like the plastic bumpers,always said real cars had steel bumpers but i think the slant front suits it so it'll stay. The bumpers aren't perfect so i'll get some new one's eventually. More power is always on the cards $$$ aren't. got the other motor at work. Will save up slowly,plan is rebore with forgies,t28 and microtech. Should be fun,just hope this motor holds together now.Lookin forward to toyotafest in sydney in a couple of months. Quote
B.L.Z.BUB Posted August 5, 2011 Report Posted August 5, 2011 I agree, looks very nice for a slanty. Subtle but tough at the same time, a very nice balance. :y: Quote
