:clover: :wootjump:

 

That's really about it. Then its a car I can drive.

Just got quoted under $200 to shorten the tailshaft for it.

DO NOT GO TO DRIVELINE SERVICES!!!!

 

Hardy spicer (egale farm) are the guys to go too.

Thats a cheap quote, car is looking good, and the updates are a man on a mission, will be done in no time at this rate.

Yes went to Hardy Spicer at Darra. All good, I know about driveline services.

 

Thanks Matt. I'm psyched.

Just ordered a new clock surround and a new pair of drivers door hinges.

 

Received the tube that taps on the w57 in the post. Still waiting to hear about the tail shaft.

2AZ-FE AE86 now with added tail shaft.

 

Oh yes. I can't wait to see a video of this moving

Cheers.

 

Tail shaft fits nicely. I also noticed I had the leading brake shoe in the back on both sides so I swapped that around to be correct.

 

I had a good look at the handbrake cables and I think I need a centre front cable that's a little bit longer than the one I have, by my calculation about 45-50mm would be ideal. Making a total length of 337mm being about perfect. If anyone reading this has one lying around please measure it, I need to find one longer than mine.

Looking fantastic matt. Really coming together now.

Cheers Dave.

 

I'm getting excited, I need to pop the motor out, weld in a some lugs for the fuel lines and touch up a couple spots with a hammer, and do the sump mod, and then I can put oil in the motor and box and look at purchasing an ecu for her.

 

Ill need Justin to come back soon as I need his help with the gauges and the lights. Also he has had my idle control manifold made for me, and I'm dying to commission it and make sure it will fit and connect where I want it.

 

I also need the sheet metal guy to rock up and grab the templates for my bonnet cap and airbox designs.

 

I realised I've never test fitted a sway bar under the car either at the rear so I will be doing that next as well. I wonder if I should have the thicker white line one or the stock one. I wonder if the stock one will control the bigger heavier diff? Might take some testing to see.

 

I also need the headers fixed and the wideband bung fitted.

 

Parts to find:

 

Lock bars and locks for the doors.

Longer centre handbrake cable - 330mm ish.

Rear demister switch.

Pair of rear bolt on flares.

 

Coming along nicely.

looking forward to seeing this thing going, should be a torque monster. :yes:

Thanks Chris. I pray its a torque monster when its done. I've kind of strategised towards that end, but you never know till you try and tune it exactly how it will run. ;)

 

For me that's the great excitement about it, because I've spent so long working towards it, and for packaging reasons nobody can fit manifolds like mine to a stock 2azfe. Its really exciting wondering if and how it will perform. :osama:
