RXFORD Posted January 30 Posted January 30 I Agree with Harry, don't get involved in lead work unless you are proficient in it and the paintshop you plan to use is confident in your process. Alot of paintshops won't warranty lead work if they didn't do it or its not factory. Just let the bodyshop decide how they will fill the deeper seam sections, that way if it fails its on them. 2 Quote
Carsnz123 Posted February 6 Posted February 6 A thought on your engine ideas. What was your plan for engine management? If you're set on usuing a 2gr-fse you'll need a pricy aftermarket ecu to control the direct injection element. Fitting all the wiring and can related things from a donor car becomes a messy exercise fairly fast. Usuing a 2gr-fe makes your life a lot easier. Quote
BigA Posted February 7 Author Posted February 7 At the moment I am still weighing up best bang for buck. Looking at the toyota series engines anything like the 1jz/2jz is so expensive to buy and the 2gr-fse/2gr-fe option is hell of a lot cheaper. Hadn't really thought much on engine management side of things as I have e yet to get to that point. I have heard from someone who use to work for toyota is that the fe has better options as far as modifications you can do like cams etc and with the fse it can become a little more expensive. Quote
Carsnz123 Posted February 8 Posted February 8 You really need to look at the drivetrain as a complete package when deciding. Staying away from anything direct injection will make the engine management side of things easier. If you're going down the route of it being auto then a 6G7x from mitsubishi is an option. The trans in the Pajero is a variant of the aisin A340 so the bellhousing bolts to the toyota RWD A340. There is a reasonable amount of performance parts available for them too. 1 Quote
RXFORD Posted March 2 Posted March 2 What diam wire are you running in mig? Getting doors off yahoo shipped over would be an expensive exercise. Surely a local shop could do some corner patches for ya to save the hassle of importing shit thats probably just as bad? Quote
