fuel Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 I gather his EX wasn't a GSR so it never would have had the EX GSR gearbox and diff. Finding EX GSR parts are hard over here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ke36 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 yea what fuel said^^^ was a 1200cc model so never had any semi strong gsr bits, there a impossible to find here and a rear diff setup for one would have cost me more than my hilux setup and nowhere near as strong gearbox is a l200 box with l200 flywheel and excedy heavy duty clutch, starter is just the stock 1200cc starter (all the narrowblock ones are the same) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 oh, ok.ive seen 1 of the thread using a mivec engine, any1 knows wat gearbox is it using?? and is ur project hard to do or just simple 1. i mean the modification. thanks man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Mean build Would be keen as to check it out once running. I dont think my cars going to be running anytime soon. Its depressing looking at it, silent, not a sound! One day. Bloody cars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ke36 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 u think ur depressed my car is just sitting down at the tuners/auto sparkys was meant to be going a month ago it runs but im having little niggly problem after niggly problem mechanic that did my cambelt for me messed it up first time so when the car was started the tensioner pulley jammed, fucking the cambelt with it, but thats all sorted now my hilux diff conversion is all on the piss, some of the mounts are out meaning the arms are on wrong angles and the springs rub and shit so have to take the diff all out and find a stock housing so they can have another go at it again plus the dyno is booked up till the 7th of oct so i have to wait for a cancelation/a car fucks out to get on i just wanna huss the bags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 ill have a stock ex diff after this weekend if you wanna borrow. Thats if your local to Auckland. I just wanna take mine for a spin. Just around the block. Is it too much to ask for?!!!! What Computer are you running? Much engine work? Oops, just read that properly. You want a stock HILUX housing.

Ke36 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 nah i do need a stock lancer diff, need to get the right places for the mounts and just move the ones on the hilux allready im in chch tho so too much effort link g4 ecu, stock vr4 engine with big16g, evo 6 injectors, 38mm tial hoping for 300ishrwhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Id be wrapd if i got anywhere near 300rwhp!!!! I think mine would be closer to maybe 200 - 250rwhp. Mine is similar, Stock Evo 2 engine, big 16g, 510cc injectors, microtech computer, Tial 38mm, same intercooler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ke36 Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 yea i was aiming for 200rwkw (270ish hp), but tuner seems to think 300hp is a possibility so hopefully no for sure soon either way anything over 250 hp is guna be more than enough to get me in trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuel Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 hey man good to see it's finally coming together. few questions, what inserts are you running in the front struts? and how come you chose 200lb springs? they'ld be a bit light wouldn't they? I'm running 9kg springs which would be about 500lb - I reckon 350-400lb would be more suited to yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ke36 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 they are camry inserts apparently suspenion place jst told me they were 200lbs not 100% sure if they are that but they tried the first ones and they were too stiff so put these ones in, its still bloody stiff i didnt work any of that shit out just went by what the spring guy said if they seem to be a problem ill take them out and work out the spring rates certainly guna b stiffer than the factory ones anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSM Garage Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Dude, your door cards are CHOICE! Were they able to match the original door card colours? Jelious man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ke36 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 nah my doorcards were that crazy two tone brown and then brown crosshatching on the bottom mate who owned the car before me had speakers in the front but they got stolen and they ripped up the doorcards to get em out so i got some replacement ones but they were all either fucked or not the right colour so in the end just got the best ones i could find ripped all the vinyl off and made some pods for my component speakers (theyve got huge magnets) then got a mate of a mate to re vinyl them, were a right cunt to do apparently cos of the countours etc went black as i may do the whole interior that colour eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
