that sounds like a plan, ill snap some pics this arvo and go from there! I am going to start a build thread once im home from work, cause I cannot access photobucket or anything similar to host the images. 5m is in my bagged and shaved mx32, would be awesome to get some feedback on it once I can post it up here

its the 5m-eu complete with 5 million different, non-required, Japanese emissions bits and pieces :S that was going to be the first port of call, removing all the un-necessary crap! I'm not worried about fuel economy to be honest, because it cannot really get any worse that what it is currently (I just got 75kms out of about 18-20L of fuel :S ), which is terrible! I could probably get a manifold made up to suit something cool (that's kind of the reason im keeping the engine in it, to keep that whole old school vibe about it. I've got a 1jz sitting in the shed, but don't want to go down that path with this). The most realistic option would just be to take it in to get the carby re-built I guess... but wheres the fun in that LOL

we have a fabricator mate who could probably make up some adaptor plates, so I guess it would be just as easy to go custom route, I was just hoping there might be something direct bolt on lol thanks for the fast replies by the way, you guys are awesome!!

Hey guys, after recently attending the 4 and rotary nationals in your fine country, I noticed that you guys do things a little differently with engines, in a good way! Everyone seems to be innovative and just have the ability to make things work!! So, Ive searched and searched to no avail, so I thought you guys would be the best to ask about this... I've got a 77 mx32 Cressida, which has been fitted with a 5M engine. It goes great, but having some problems with the stock carby set up (as well as having 50 million ugly and unnessessary hoses and tangled mess hanging off the side). when I first got the car it ran like a dream, and now it's having problems idling, also likes to shut down at the traffic lights on a hot day (but starts straight back up first time, everytime) So we're leaning towards blocked/dodgy carby and the fuel not getting through, possibly evaporating from the bowl whilst stopped and idling... I'm wondering if there's any options for an aftermarket carby setup for this engine?? anything at all, I really want to get rid of this stock set up and clean up the engine bay as much as I can. is there any cool set ups like triple weber or something like that for Toyota?? Any help at all is greatly appreciated Kez
