GARDRB

I was trying to talk him into Freevalve earlier, then he can do away with cams and throttles

Would slide throttles be a better DIY build?

Too dodgit to quit

Honestly, between @Roman, @Stu, @kpr, @yoeddynz, @_Matt, @sheepers and a couple of the other mad scientists on here there is some pretty clever shit being done.

Don't they use that fancy later model 6 speed?? edit... yeah... https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Lexus-toyota-RA62-manual-gearbox-/264496988179?nma=true&si=PBCXCu%2FO8RQ%2BJZVJvhWphpT%2BRx4%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Dearest Davide, I know your reasoning for using the J160, but am I correct in saying that the 4GR shares its bell housing pattern with the 1GR and as such would allow the use of a V6 Hilux bell housing and box in a MarkX?? Regards, Jesse

5gr from Aliexpress?

Fuck that's cool, clever way to get two colours too, I'm gonna steal that technique

chump change

Yeah, quit your whining David

Jesus, is that carbon built up against the exhaust flange?

Thanks buddy, now I'm thinking about laser cutting a sump from layers and layers of MDF

Auto flex plate and a sexy little Tilton multiplate clutch

I'm contemplating doing bolts in 1uz land @Roman, not for all of them, but for enough to make it less of a ballache to get headers in and out

It sounds a whole lot better than a 350z

This is why I love you Richy, you know all the good things

Just been looking at the JTCC Corolla here https://www.racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/106617/1994-genuine-jtcc-fet-toyota-corolla-super-to?Published_by_Mike_Walters I know @Snoozin has lovingly fondled this car, but not sure how far up its skirt he looked. But can someone explain this front upright to me? It looks to me like the aluminium block has an arm of sorts heading inward to the lower arm, which doesn't appear to allow for any steering rotation of the upright, so I assume there is some sort of top balljoint mount further up the upright by those top four bolts that the wheel pivots from. Is this just essentially a fancy version of superstrut? https://global.toyota/en/detail/7829158 I think in writing this post I've essentially answered my own question, but I'd still love to hear everyone's thoughts.

You'll probably find that the C160 will fetch a premium (a week before racewars) because they get broken by muppets more than the c56 too

Fuck yeah, 3uz is the way to go these days. Wiring is pretty easy, ECU can be tuned and you can pick up a LS430 or Celsior for fuck all.

A lot of the stuff that Stab Fab guy does is kinda scary

What are the cert requirements for an inline handbrake? Isn't the idea of a cable handbrake redundancy?

Wash your mouth out. VZ motors suck, MZ are at least alloy

My brother has just bought the steering wheel for his latest build. It's the first part he's got, doesn't even have the car yet
