Was wanting to get a grinder for home, getting into a bit of knife making. Workmate who also does knife making said he had drawn up a 2x72 one. So we got a couple water cut out. Grabbed a motor and a VSD off some equipment at work that was getting thrown out. Few more things to do, get wheels, make a base, turn up an adaptor for my motor, make a housing for the VSD but getting there slowly on our lunch breaks. It also tilts so can use it horizontal which is cool.

J21'S '83 Toyota Corona MKII Wags Discussion.

I know a few people that wanted to buy it but the seller didn't mention the hit at all before viewing, as well as not putting pictures up. Not the best strategy to sell a car. How come your not keen for manual converting? -

Start of the first one I've done with my own stabilised wood. Needs a shit load more polishing but liking it so far.

I've made some moulds up, it's a 2 part resin and use different coloured pigments to get the desired look. Have just invested in the gear to start stabilising wood so can do hybrid wood/resin ones such as the video you posted which I'm excited to try

M series weirdos unite. 6mge starting issues.
beachlander replied to beachlander's topic in Tech Talk
5m/6m is a bit different but i have the manual for it. Have set everything as good as it can be going off the manual so am pretty stumped as to why it wont run now. Had it very close to starting but just doesnt want to. -

Where the dizzy is now, the next tooth will be past #1. Its pretty much bang on atm. At TDC crank is on 0 on the timing belt cover, and both marks on cam pulleys are as good as they can be without being a tooth out. I do have a timing light -

You two were spot on, cams 180 out, idiot. Set everything as it should be, and it is so close to running. We have the dizzy just coming onto cyl. 1 at tdc, but it seems like we dont have enough adjustment on the slot to get it where it needs to be. TDC/cam belt is set as good as it can be. Any other suggestions on what it could be? There are a couple of rips on the intake in a few different spots I'll tape up tomorrow. Leads could definitely do with being replaced, but it did run before all this work before, so i would think it would at least fire up. -
Yep solid rear. Have a TRD 2 way to swap in that I grabbed when I was in Japan last.
