Roman Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Forget about MR2 powersteer, too complicated and too much fucking around. I say for starters just loop the PS lines and work on the critical bits to get it going! Although, if you are a sucker for punishment I do have an SW20 that I'm planning on parting out at some point when I'm less lazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotaloyal Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hmmmm... Something is coming back to me ........... Did I figure that if the fuel filter(that need to be on the other side of the engine bay) was moved there would be space for the gate to sit there under the master cylinder?????? Hmm maybe. To be honest the mounting of the gate isn't that much of a drama. I'd start looking at Morevimportant things like the oil filter relocation situation. Will need a custom plate made to bolt to the block. Look closely you'll see wat I mean..... P steer wise just find a small unit you can relocate to the passenger side of the engine. I spent a fair wad of cash getting that rack rebuilt so make the most of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick_m Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 You could look at adapting a 120y/180b Datsun brake booster and appropriate sized master. Could possibly give you a bit more room to put your gate there? Try to keep your fittings on your WG clear of your manifold as much as practical. Had a silvia in at work that had one of his fittings nearly sitting on the bottom of the exhaust housing and it kept heating the bolt up and burning holes in the WG Diaphram. You can disassemble the WG and rotate the top half of the WG 120/240 deg from where it is now if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4AG_Addict Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Would top mounted turbo cause bonnet clearance issues? Worked out mint on my 3RZ+T Hilux, seems like it would save you a lot of mucking around. Just leave the oil filter where it is. My old setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicT Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I definately couldnt run the turbo that high, I have shitloads of space infront of where the turbo currently lives or anywhere else in the engine bay. Its just a real real shame to not be able to use Glens manifold as it looks awesome (and the one i will make will be rather average in comparison) Might get my octopus on. But first there is a little lady in my garage that needs some attention: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Can't just chop the turbo flange off the collector and slightly angle to create more space? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicT Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Worth a try but it needs to be a good 3 inchs at the turbo center. Was having a play with actual fittings today and its worse again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ta63-1uzze Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 maybe its time to look into moving the turbo , i know its not ideal but remaking the manifold looks to be the best solution. it wont cost much money just your time. you can keep the colector and flanges, just need to change the pipe inbetween . this way you can move the turbo forward ? perhaps? this will bring the W/G out of the way from the booster, and also alow you to keep the oil filter in its origonal place ? all this is just ideas. but maybe its the best way ?

NicT Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Is the carina out in the weather until the AE86 is sorted?Hope it hasnt dissolved by the time you get back to it. Sadly it is, but i have 3 car covers over it. I know its just optimistic thinking they will work better then 1 car cover but thats ok helps me sleep easier at night. fuck man, i just flicked through your thread and miss read & thought you flagged the RZ for a 20v because of the headers.
