my 1992 MX83 Grande ebay special

 

Bought the car off ebay with suspected cracked/warped head. turned out to be a warped head with a bent valve. The boyfriend and myself decided to fully rebuild the motor including new bearings, rings, welsh plugs, reconditioned head ($$$), spark plugs, timing belt, water pump, oil & fuel filter, thermostat and rad cap, custom intake piping with pod and fully detailed engine (hours of cleaning and painting).

 

the car is in pretty impressive condition with few imperfections in the body with the main eye sore being the front bar. the steering wheel is pretty had it though with the top all chewed up and the drivers seat showing signs of wear but not overly torn or cracked.

 

wheels are 17x8+43 and 17x9+43 with 215/50's all round off a set of boyfriends wheels.

next plans are to replace cracked windshield and chuck some coilovers in 'er

did you think about jzx83 and dropping a j motor into it at all???

 

Good luck with it sounds like it'll be a nice cruiser once it's done

was bought with intention of repairing and selling but then i kinda claimed it as my own, for now at least.

Me like. Nice and square. More pics please.

Just a few pics from the build, will take some decent snaps once i got some coilovers in er i reckon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

the lettering on the cam covers is all hand painted.. took a while...

Freakin nice. So freakin nice.

 

A bit more dish/offset/low and it'd be .....:blush:

i think u will find the offset and dish are quite a nice match for the car and once coilovers are in the height will be made more even...

now sporting some bc racing coilovers, win!

 

a luisi mirage corsa dished steering wheel with hkb boss kit, winnah!

 

and finally installed today a kenwood double din cd/dvd/ipod hu, winnings!

 

that is all, pics to come!

Sounds rippa :yes:

 

Also you should get this moved to the other rides section as this is one of Toyota's finest creations.
