BlownCorona Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 i still have the set of 5 epsilon wheels from my crown, at some point i will list them for sale but im not actively advertising them at the moment. price wise, probably not cheap, not 100% sure on a price though. but if they are of interest to you i can think harder on it.

BlownCorona Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 thats a questionably high bill for just having a look. anyway, is that dash factory? the digi dash option in the *s13* crowns required different senders for most of the stuff to work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffs_Emporium Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Yeah it is the factory dash. Quote was 95+ if they couldn't repair it and 395+ if they could so I'll see where I stand since it's not operational still 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bling Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Be interesting to know if they tested the tacho etc. Is the signal from the engine known good? Digital dash is so sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffs_Emporium Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Tacho has been working previously dizzy is putting out a signal, im going to try lift some of the pins on the plug on back of dash tomorrow, I had some temp gauge movement pulling plug out slightly so maybe they've been flattened over time. In some better news I managed to get both sunroof and moonroof to completely open and close. Found no rust around the opening of the bigger one surprisingly its all on the removable panel, the front one has some around the edge I'll need to drop that cartridge out. Someone's definitely been there before with nuts missing here and there 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piazzanoob Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Before putting some coolant in the motor do some kms first as with a new headgasket needs time to get some heat cycles in. putting coolant in now can cause a coolant leak from the head gasket. coolant is really good at finding somewhere to leak. i would do about 500kms before putting some coolant in. totally fine to do system flushes though with water 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighLUX Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 The dash sounds like something @h4nd would know the ins and outs of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffs_Emporium Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 There will be a time I do, I just can't put a date on it right now. Looks like a few people are hunting a decent running y series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighLUX Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Whats the go with the JZ intake swap are they lego spec or is a bit of fettling required? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffs_Emporium Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 An adapter/spacer is required which there's a drawing available online. They are pretty costly to cnc machine in nz. it also requires alternator relocation which I'm not suuuper keen on as I'd like to run aircon and obviously powersteering 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighLUX Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Keen to see this offered up to the hiace engine hole and see how well its going to fit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjrstar Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I think the alternator from a 2e is physically smaller but will bolt up to the 1g brackets, long time since I put one onto 1ggte so I'd have to check my facts.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otodat Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Possibly the IG- would provide the signal but it comes from engine control computer? Maybe it needs the right controller to run a digital dash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
