Just get a couple of plates water cut at Acrete out in Petone.

After the evenings perusing of various threads, Like Flibois Cyclecar (looking good) and Dromageddon Mk3 (Sachs KM3)...

it seemed a single Rotor Cycle Car would be the shiz, and youtube confirmed that for me:

oh sweet, if i cant get it to work il get some info off you to build the circuit, ill let you know..

There is a link to the circuit in my post above, has a parts list to for your trip to Jaycar.

It won't trigger a 12v relay from that output.

Have a trawl on Toymods, pretty sure there is a wiring schematic....

found it here

The ole 8 looks nice in there!

Going to have room for some decent headers in there around the steering column??

Looks pretty nice on the 15" Rota's, keen to see it on the RB's

I've always liked them on the 16" Widebody Starion OEM wheels.

1JZGTE still has way more potential for power though.... Got the LSD from Aaron (Rabid Chimp) of CelicaSupra.com.

Yeah, but if I didn't have all that glorious *GTE power, I wouldn't have spent a fortune on driveline, brake and chassis upgrades...

and most likely have a nice comfortable cruiser, not an anti-social savage beast.

Like the 'middle' path you've chosen, still wish I was able to get a 2JZ-GE when I started my saga....

Looking forward to some more retrosepctive updates

Radiator is all welded up and inlet plumbing fits well, onto the outlet next.

Intercooler inlet mods are all tacked in to checking, needs a minor tweak with a BFH or similar, bit pretty darn close.

Outlet to the throttle body also fitted up nicely.

Just waiting on a oil cooler (OEM) delete fitting to arrive from Oz and I can start one the new cooler & thermostat and plumbing...

Spotted in the Hutt this AM:

Could you look at one of those Alloy 1JZ-GTE manifolds on the tard and modify it to suit the 1G head? Cut'n'Shut along the runners?

I'd go an M42B18 with some ITB's

Or if $$ / desire stretched with a Turbo on the other side!

Same, esp. in that good condition.

Some 215 or 225/45's would be a nice fitment, pretty common size to, so not heaps of $$ ea.

Saw those R3's on TM.

Looking forward to some pics with them mounted!!

A bit more snail paced progress, pretty self explanatory:

Hopefully get it all tacked up (as well as the Radiator).

Also paid EDL a visit today for some more fixing hardware, so back onto the pedal-box tomorrow.

Nice thread - almost nostalgic.

When I was in high school I used to ride (a not so legal) IT200 around on the road and 'go places' and do lots of wheelies, and I generally stunk like a very oil rag.

Last bike I had was 2001 RM250 - was a mental machine.

Don't think I ever got use / comfortable on it in the year I had it.

But the suspension on it was to die for.

[/off to trade me for some sweet dreams]

PM'd

Got a fair bit in the garage Al, can cut you off a piece, when you need it?

Like the budget turbo idea, and the Holsets' are nice and cheap (even new like the one I got).

The HX40's are reasonably common here in NZ (HX35's weren't on anything new here) so keep an eye out for them also.

You won't be able to use any that are internally gated, as they are usually far too small, and only by-pass one of the scrolls on a twin-scroll T-hsg (from memory).

I got mine with a non-WG'd 12cm housing, you could probably go a bit bigger (14 or 16cm) with 3.0l and N/A-esque compression ratios without creating a lag-monster.

Not sure what the engine bay looks like on H6, but with one centrally mounted across the back (firewall), a nice pair of 'headers' from each bank, feeding each scroll, with a pair of 38mm external gates at the collectors, and a 3-3.5" down-pipe to the passenger side would be pretty drool worthy.

Another one to look at (if getting something from the US) is a Holset HE351VE with the VNT actuator, be a bit of fun if you have any spare PWM outputs on the LINK....

(turn on your bullsh!t filter and have a flick through this)

Been slow progress so far this year, but there has been some...

Pedal box mount welded up, and re-inforcing plate cut to weld to the floor:

Side Radiator shrouds & IC mounts water-cut and folded:

Radiator inlet mods underway:

And, I probably should build a new end-tank:

What gear(dog)boxes are you using?

Be interesting to see what that 2.4l does!

Are there many people running the Honda K24's?

Mad MSPaint skilz there!!

Stick wheels on one end and push it onto the site.

Looks like from the pic below, going through the shed/garage with a temp ramp will come out at a good level with easy access from the street / main road.

Just have to sacrifice the shed & rebuild *bugger*

Have you thought about pulling the roof/lintel off the garage and temporarily filling it at a ramp onto the site?

Feed the container straight in / onto the site with somthing like an excavator / frontend loader at each end to handle the height / grade change etc...

Sure, will still cost a bit to rebuild the shed etc.. but looks cheaper than the big a$$ cranes & road closures you're looking at.

Doubt it it that simple IRL but got to ask

Used to have a 1275 GT - what fun.

You'll want to install a 'custom dizzy shield'^(*) before winter and rain comes along.

*. Actually an Ice Cream Container, black one preferably

Thats awesome.

Using your Xbox Kenetic thing?? Or did you buy a proper scanner?

Watch out Westy - I'll be sending NicT around

Got a bit of time in on the car over the break.

Radiator & Intercooler mounted up in a 'V' arrangement.

Templating for the side shrouds & botton IC mounts.
