Zac's 1981 L200 Uterus :-).

[ProZac]

HMU with your shit Mitsy chat :-).

[tortron]

I'm Gona pull the 3.8 and auto out of mine and swap with another later 3.8 and auto

 

Do try it

[Valiant]

This is funny, I drive past your house pretty regularly , (its in Rangiora isn't it?) I like these utes too I had one years ago that I swapped a G63b turbo out of a RWD sigma.

Mine was slow as a wet week and only mildly less slow post motor swap.

Now I can live vicariously as you do what I should have done.

[ProZac]

Hah, yes, I do. How do you like the progress on my fence? I'm at 4 years so far, and its still not finished ;-).

[Valiant]

You cant rush into things.

Funny because I noticed the mint L200, and thought a foamer must own it. Looks like I was right.

Mine was black, I used to park it behind the Mobil just down from your house.

Small world huh?

[ProZac]

Legit tiny.

It's far from mint, but mint from afar ;-).

[WLDRX2]

Do love me an L200.

Yours looks like a real gem.

Should go real well with the planned engine upgrade. 

 

Have 2 myself 4wd and 2wd . Need a replacement 4g63 for one though.

 

[Valiant]

That ratio seems to be a good choice, your motorway speed is great.

[d.p.n.s]

love the old l200s mate....

and man life was so much happier (for me) when you worked at repco...

did you sell both stations Zac

[ProZac]

Lol Valiant.. I may sometimes push the speed a little when I'm on the way home from work.... ;-).

 

d.p.n.s - I miss it sometimes too. Well, the access to parts anyway, hah. No, I still have my black Starion, its sitting, waiting for some attention. 2020 might be the year? :-).

[d.p.n.s]

oh good...i tnought you sold the lot mate..

im a huge fan of the starion and you dont see enough around anymore....or the early l200 utes.

[ProZac]

Nah mate, Black one I'll have forever I think. Can't explain it, but have a good connection with that car. I've been collecting parts still, and I've got pretty much everything I'll need to do a really nice GSR-V replica. 12V DASH head, all the big driveline, later model interior... Should be good :-).

3mm? are you building a tractor?

But no, very good, sheetmetal is a thorn but oh so satisfying when it works out.

[bigfoot]

Can I please order one of all the cool shit you have made for this motor for mine?

Yeah, I got some CAD-eye on that one... But the coils are pretty heavy, and I have one bend that is greater that 90deg, dont want it to fatigue and break in the near future...

Hah, lets wait and see if any of it works first... ;-). I'll make two of a few things though, as I'll be doing another SOHC motor in the next couple of years for my Starion.

[mutiny]

Think I spotted ya today on maidstone road. Looks cool man. Canopy really sets it off I reckon 

[ProZac]

That would be about right, I was coming home from work. I like the canopy, but it limits the usability too much for what I do with the truck, so It'll be coming off :-/.

[Roman]

Love this project.

What brand of ABS are you using? Looks like nice results!
