Saw this at PC, I absolutely love it dude! Also, sick tow wagon!

Writing this on behalf of a dear friend of mine - Could someone pleeeease help a brother out! G'day all Names Charlie and I have been pointed in your direction for some possible assistance. I've currently got my Toyota Crown (MS130(?)) sitting at an auto sparky trying to nut out what’s going on with my damn CEL. The codes are 24 and 52 (Air Temp / Knock Sensor) and possible other various faults. Given the cars, somewhat rarity, parts aren’t as easy to come buy as I would have hoped. I've been quoted by Toyota for mid-$300 for new knock sensor but the shop also thinks it could be a greater fault with the ECU itself after some snooping. During my hunt in an attempt to locate a 2nd hand ECU to either borrow for testing purposes or purchase has been fruitless as most leads have gone to a dead end. I was hoping if anyone here could help or point me in the right direction before I take the plunge and buy a knock sensor that may not even fix my fault. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated and I can be contacted via email: Charles.Whittaker.NZ@gmail.com or via kseries.rookie Thanks again Charlie Thank you all, and looking forward to hearing from you!

+1 on pics!

Oh wow, I always thought a 323i was a 2.3 litre injected motor - I had an E36 323i, it went well for the whale that it was haha.

Looks like it was a rad turn out. Any more pictures??

Bahaha, in your defense, you were honest with my when buying the wagon, and said that the wiring is... well, churr. Daha. Oh the reverse switch HAHA. Thats halerious, but genius at the same time. Did you throw those plugs in (black and white)?

Niiice looking spit! We chucked a beast on a spit in the weekend.. So much noms.

Completely forgot to text you, Dan - did you nab a chance to look at the plugs? I've been told that the plug on the right is for emissions and I don't actually need that hooked up? Anyways, bump!

Hey dude thanks man. Yeah this is recessed/twin head light wiring system too. I'd imagine those wires should still be there tho, beause they're the headlights etc too. Cheers. If anyone else knows off hand, please feel free to comment!

Hey all, Thanks in advanced for your help, it is very much appreciated. Alright, so some of you may know/be previous owners/may of done the work on this previous.. It’s this wagon here (old image, of the day I got it home): Long story short (hopefully lol) The wiring on this car is just.. Well, all over the place! . I’ve replaced/fixed most of it, but I’ve continued to have gremlins with the electrics, so I went about sourcing a loom, took ages, turns out there a 2 types for ke70s and yep, you guessed it.. it was wrong. I was going to cut/splice and make 1 from the 2 but that just turns all bad, especially because my wiring skills is non-existent. I bit the bullet and brought a second hand complete loom from oldscoolautos. Here is the issue that I face. I don’t know what these two plugs are for. I’m assuming that the bottom one, with the rubber plug goes to the coil/ballast resister? The one circled in red goes to the washer bottle but I don’t know where the other plug goes.. Also, this is the wiring that is on the wagon at the moment. Are these plugs standard? On both the looms that I have there isn’t any plugs, and it runs straight through. I’m picking there was an issue, and someone has split the wires and done their own, hence the churr-bro red wire coming off the plug haha. http://i41.tinypic.com/295ttnq.jpg[/img] Anyways, any help would be appreciated!!

Do LED conversion with old tail lights! VIP as truck! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67Vi904qhwc

^ this! I love that red. thats mk1 go-tina is deliishhhhhhhhhhhhh

Nice KE25 brah. Although, I think this is in the wrong part of the forum? Is this meant to be in the Project side, not the discussion?

DO IT

I'm not sure if this is runnning still or anything, but if it is - are you racing at port road?

Wicked photos guys, they're fuckin awesome.

Instead of guessing, why don't you ring up the council and ask? trololol.. Would love to attend one of these bad ass days. I have seen some video footage, and looks like so much laughs were had

Beachlander; What driveshaft would you be using?

*interested in this f series conversion* When you say "sort your mounts" what do you mean by that?

That was going to be my suggestion, although I believe they are a little wider, so will give you dat mad hellafrush look yo

What is your budget, or at least a ball park figure

Awesome build so far! Looking forward to seeing you on the track.

srsly, can we do something about the page - It's completely freezing my system, and I love to see your progress, but it just makes it impossible to view the build thread. Cheeeeeeers

Daah, new page needed! Those darn photos take too long to open, and quite possibly rape the shit out of my bandwith!
