Julwer Posted July 27, 2013 Author Posted July 27, 2013 Mattt, I only replaced the sway bar link bushes.. got them from supercheap for $30. Let me know if there's anything else though. Threeonthetree, that is very helpful info thanks, will give the T5 a go first and see how it goes with ratios and tunnel fit. Can anyone tell me more about this rocker cover of mine? Would maybe consider putting a 4m in with that on if it's something special. Probably isn't though hah. Here's a couple of pics of it. Nice oil cap too.. if it wasn't broken Quote
Mattt Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 You may have a 5m there. Not sure but Have a look here: http://users.tpg.com.au/users/loats/technical/mhistory/mhistory.html Quote
Julwer Posted July 27, 2013 Author Posted July 27, 2013 Yea after reading that I'd say so too. Might hunt out the block and find out more. Do 5m heads fit on 4m blocks? Quote
Julwer Posted July 27, 2013 Author Posted July 27, 2013 Once I pulled the head out and turned it around, I realised it was a 4M-U. The U just means its the anti-emissions version I think. Quote
HighLUX Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Sounds like the panhard rod is your problem not the sway bar. This is an easy fix to make an adjustable one //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/30028-seedy-als-guide-to-making-an-adjustable-panhard-rod-cheap/ Quote
Julwer Posted July 30, 2013 Author Posted July 30, 2013 That one. Having been talking sway bars all day with a work mate has stuck it in me head. Cheers for the link Quote
73crownwagon Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 @sheepers so you didnt wana downgrade to a 202 so you should of upgraded to a 308! Its pretty simple really 2 Quote
Seedy Al Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 This should make for a pretty sweet whip once its done. My god im glad there is no 202 in there. Not an upgrade! Quote
Julwer Posted March 15, 2018 Author Posted March 15, 2018 You have no idea how happy I am that this car ended up with you Sheepers haha. It was a painful day when this sold and got taken away, and then when I saw it on trademe again a few months later.. I almost bought her back. I'm glad she has ended up in worth hands. A lot happened to her after my last post on oldschool. For one, I saw the light and decided not to put the 202 in, I just wanted something with lumpy cams that sounded cool. After a while I realised how important it was to either keep her original engine or upgrade to something else in the same family (2jz for example). So I rebuilt the 202, sold it off and then began on the 4M. I rebuilt the head and replaced all of the gaskets and seals, but the previous owner said the engine itself had been rebuilt not so long ago. I checked the big end bearings and looked at the condition of the cylinder walls and everything looked good enough to leave as is. I ended up buying a few other cars which drew my attention away from this. I have now sold EVERYTHING and am disappearing overseas for a while. If you need any more info, send me a private message as I've turned off all other notifications from this site. Looking forward to checking back in a year or so to see progress! Julwer 2 Quote

JustHarry Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) @sheepers are you filling over bare steel or epoxy priming first then filling? Edited April 24, 2018 by JustHarry Quote
sheepers Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 epoxy prime first. i brush painted all the patches when i did the insides so there was no bare steel. bog over bare steel is bad emkay. 4 Quote
