$800 shit heap EP71

Gutted the inside of the car. Twist tied speaker wire. Everywhere! So much of the loom is hacked up, obviously this car was built just after the peak of the show car scene.


The sound deadening is manky as, chunks of carpet are attached to it and there is a nice patina of mould. Where do you buy dry ice from these days?

Don't throw the interior out. You won't ever find replacement trims etc

Yeah it's all stored in the disabled toilet at work ready to go back in once the rust is el-fixo'd. TBH it's all pretty fucked anyway, at least everything below the dash. All has been hacked up for the kebab holder, voltage gauges etc etc. I'll put the dash and the rest back in and see how I go.

Old man rust repairs came over today and eye balled the car. Is happy to sort it, so it's on a tow truck tomorrow to get fixed.

[Marty!]

this is awesome, tried to buy one a while back for 2.5k but it was auto and a bit yuck.

Hard to find them in good nick, they come up sometimes in auction from Japan but by the time you land it etc etc it's probably too much money.

Man it's hard finding wheels for this thing, 13-14" , 4x100....found some TOM'S wheels ex Japan for fook all money - http://page23.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/j...ion/o155114313

Other option is RPF1's but have to come ex USA / Japan for the right sizes.

JDMparts.ruperwrecht.com on the book of faces would be worth talking to re wheels - he's always posting neat shit in 4x100 in those sorts of sizes

Dry ice can be found from.BOC at blacktown or from these cunts in hornsby http://fiegertsice.com.au

He has some cool stuff, not a lot of chop in 4x100 currently. Wish these were 4x100 - http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/kalor...ero/1132826457

Old mate is pulling the windscreen out to get at the rust, most/all of the clips holding in the side trim are broken. These clips here - http://megazip.me/M/41b/41b12ed20041...56177e14c4.png

Anybody know if they are a standardised part Toyota use for trim? (of that era at least).

dan dietritch has a line on the same toms turbine wheels that i run on the AW11 if you wanted to run 15s (you should run 15s anyway, way better choices for tyres)

try toyodiy for the clips but chances are they are identical to ae82 etc cars of the time

[kedderz]

fk me those turbo fans make me want a car just to fit them on.

[Sketchy]

Early 3 series and geminis are 4x100 too don't forget, should open up your options a bit depending on what offset these run.

(you should run 15s anyway, way better choices for tyres)

Tis true. Tyre choices in 14" is balls.

Oh my, flash back to 2008 and I have found this vehicles build thread haha!

"The finally setup for engine was;
Forged rods and pistons
Heavy duty valve springs
XS power T3 turbo
Custom exhaust mani and 2 1/2 dump and system with outlaw high flow cat
Emanage blue
Walbro 255 fuel pump
360cc injectors"

Well that's nice.

[trdee]

forged internals sounds good, assuming it's the same motor

throw a turbro on this thing and take it to marulan for some lols
