    I decided I couldn't be bothered, sold the gearbox, bellhousing, and car. I always liked my VG better so I kept that.

    Have you considered a 2jz/R154? Buy something like this I saw this listing you may be interested in: 2001 Toyota Altezza Gita https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/toyota/altezza/listing/5985292152 Strip it for all the bits you need to make it work Buy a new R154 off trade me. Profit.

    10k and no computer is limiting. small block Chevrolet or Ford. Intech with a carb and dizzy. 265??? Add dedicated LPG to the above for simplicity and reduced running costs. 1kz. 5l+T. TD27

    FG Barra has a factory rear sump. FYI.

    Sounds like it might have a blocked idle jet. Did you fit the carb new out of the box? Does it react when you just the idle screws? Or can you turn them right in till they stop and it still runs?

    Could you look at it the opposite way. Find out what vehicle made by Toyota that's common/10ish years old and comes with a factory LSD and a decent gearbox.

    Possibly advertising a plate and tag swap, not obscuring the rego number very effectively, recording a sub par seatbelt insulation then firing shots at NZTA/LVV etc weren’t such a good combination in hindsight.

    Flattered to hear. It does smell good.

    Have you got some pics of the gas system that was on the car? Thanks.
  10. Valiant
    Cool that its on gas. Are you going to continue with the LPG?

    @xsspeed You should buy an E series Falcon.

    EE90 2E timing

    Valiant replied to Nico89's topic in Tech Talk

    Looks like the wrong dimple mate. I can see the correct dimple through the cam sprocket. A good rule of thumb is your keyways/locating dowels will be straight up when the timing is right.
  13. Valiant
    Yes. change it without starting the engine.
  14. Valiant
    Change your engine oil. The fuel gets past the rings and into the sump. It dilutes the engine oil which can lead to engine damage.

    Has it got any castor angle? Is anything stiff/binding? Looks like no Ackerman angle? That won't make heavy to steer though

    Have you considered an Ali Express motorbike carb?

    Over a century later and the ANZACs are still saving the French.

    Upgrade to green top/taxi rods. Much stronger incase of LPG kick back. Seems logical while its out of the car.

    @kiwi808 Has your account been hacked? There are no recconendations of Monsta Jay Ports in the above comments. Something seems off.

    Yeah I think mine had two fuses and uninsulated terminals I replaced it with And Now that I never drive it I don't have any electrical issues. So that's good.

    On a different note, Electricians of Oldschool, Fluorescent lights not working, I have replaced the little starters which has got some working. The others that weren't working at all now flicker and glow dully at the ends. Do I need to replace the tubes too? Thanks.

    Spoken like a true Ford guru. super pro tip, you can free up a seized caliper by working it backwards with plenty of CRC until it frees up. Same tactic works on EA-ED. Pretty good calipers once you know how to make them work/don't crank up the cable then give up.

    Hello Sheepers. Are you fitting a new link? Seems like a very sensible decision if you are.

    I think the truck has a Hilux style diff and a Hiace type gearbox. Should last for ever. Name a more iconic duo.
