  1. Does it go on our microchip that we had implanted?
  2. Just saw this on Facebook @cletus, surely that's a bit of a generalisation, isn't it? Couldn't a non-boosted four-pot setup meet the standard fine with an appropriately sized master and pedal ratio?
  3. My brother's NZ new SR5 looked like it never had one. It was always very quick to lock the rears. We looked at putting on a spare off a Surf he wrecked, but never got around to it. Every WOF was a ballache with it, mostly left-to-right balance in the rear. He never got knocked back on the lack of load bias though
  4. Just convert it to mild hybrid and use the alternatory/drive thing to start it rather than dicking around with starters. Then you can run KERS too
  5. 4wd MarkX is for when you add two turbos and want to do helis
  6. I feel like they fucked up with that ebay listing, that sump looks identical to Dave's one. I've been toying with making an adapter for my 1uz to run one of these SR20 pans https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car-parts-accessories/performance/other/listing/3995918987
  7. What filament are you gonna print the sump with? Carbon moooshed overtop of it?
  8. If I can fit a 1uz in a corolla without modifying the firewall or ditching the swaybar, you can make this work. If the motor is the hilux bolt pattern rather than the 2gr bolt pattern you could always go to an R154/R151?? Otherwise let's see a 2gr echo
  9. I'm assuming Dave has already read much of this, but this was where I got my info about the blocks. https://www.toymods.org.au/forums/threads/65328-2GRFE-Conversion-any-inputs
  10. Is the 4gr the same block and crank pattern as the 1gr? I know when I was looking at 2gr RWD conversions the 1GR truck motor was quite different
  11. 1uz appears to be 80mm, so closer than 3s, but still not right. What's the PCD on the 1MZ? With my 3s flywheel on the 1uz we took the 1uz ring gear and machined the diameter of the flywheel down to match then fitted the 1uz ring gear for the engine side engagement of the starter.
  12. If 1mz Flywheel is the way to go a 1uz flywheel may work?
  13. Have you got a side shot showing where the throttles sit in relation to the new rad support? That mondeo setup looks like it might work, maybe with the filter tipped onto more of an angle than you have it now??
  14. But but but.... how did you mount the wing?
  15. Looking forward to seeing the 3d printed carbon wrapped MSPaint CFD optimised solution you settle on
  16. Keep the mounts in the middle, they won't stand out too much, and you could always work out a way to make a feature of them
  17. A couple of Prius engines would fetch a premium 10 days out from OS Drags
  18. There needs to be a romandave patreon
  19. Dude those are sex toys, not bumpstops, you're on the wrong part of aliexpress again
  20. Doesn't making them cone shaped make them progressive? Maybe taper the mould out from the bottom??
  21. I'm not sure if you're worried about manufacturing cost, but it may be cheaper to make those from two laser cut pieces of plate that bolt together like Barry does with his MRP caliper brackets then getting them machined from a single piece. You'd want to make sure @cletus is ok with it of course.
  22. Most of the people I see with them don't strike me as the type of people that care about things like rules and WOFs
  23. Yeah we heated it with a heat gun, it was a little bit hard to get the heat consistent but we got a good one eventually
