beachlander Posted July 5, 2015 Author Share Posted July 5, 2015 Things and stuff happened today. Motor and box are now in. Need to get some bolts for the gearbox then can chuck driveshaft in. Couple of jobs to do before wire up, like sort out powersteering lines, which im hoping to do this week. Also found aother pair of centre caps to finish off my wheels. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachlander Posted September 14, 2015 Author Share Posted September 14, 2015 So a couple of weeks ago when I was in Christchurch for the Hanmer meet I had the chance to check out what is my dream car for sale. Ended up agreeing to buy it on the spot. So unfortunately that means this has to go, although it is going to a forum member, and he is getting everything to make it cool, which he better other wise I will shank him. xx Will post up new project when I get it in a few weeks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mitch.W Posted September 27, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2015 So it seems kurts attempt at coupe lyfe has failed as this thing has fallen into my hands and I'm going attempt to finish Kurts attempt. He sold it to me with pretty much all the hard stuff done which is verrry nice! It arrived to my house on thursday night looking like this straight off the truck, highly recommend Brent at Classic towing, he is a dream to deal with and at a very good price too! much better than any other company i have had to deal with before. on friday evening i ripped into things, put the last coilovers in the car, and ofcousre slammed it. need shorter springs for the rear coils as it sits wayyy too high and i still have a bit of body adjustmet to play with. also had to put the skirts on to see what it would look like..... it looked good. pulled all the seats out as they were all dirty and grabbed some turtle wax upholstery cleaner. Worked way better than expected got all the greese and rust stains out of the seats, still need to finish cleaning up around the headrests. Before: After: Next on the list -put the side skirts on properly -check all the bolts underneath are tight -install driveshaft -instal/mod gearbox x member -mount enginebay stz -rebuild brakes -acquire and install raditior -wire up engine -exhaust -and a shitload of other small jobs.. should easily be done come summertime hopefully... 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch.W Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 got bored so decided i should revive this thread. this is what it looked like when i go it off kurt however long ago. the i then spent way too long finishing it up and still haven't got it road legal. done acouple of drift days in it. surprised a lot of people how nice it drove at this height and how well the n/a 1jz went. quick snippet of sideways stuff but the real plan now that its all going it to tidy everything up, and get it road legal 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mitch.W Posted June 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2020 bump - I sold this about 1.5 years ago when I needed some coin to do grown up things (renovate house) regretted it deeply, this weekend just been I went and picked it back up off the guy who I sold it to. it now has a vvt-i 1jzgte and MAXX ECU all scratch built loom by nz wiring, that about all he changed, got raised up and put on some china 17x9's. while I was in wellington I picked up a set of bcnr33 wheels and slapped them on it and lowered it back down to a semi acceptable height. The plans are smash an r154 in it before I blow up the w58 doing silly stuff, then later on I will put a TD06 on it and hopefully make around 350kw just for shits and gigs, also potentially some 15's of some sort again would be nice. will also unyucky the intercooler pipes. Couple of pics from before I sold it with 9j mk1 on the back and current pics, needs to come down 6mm or so in the back to get it sitting level 30 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
