V-TEC YO f20c powered E7

[Hako]

I may have missed it but what did you end up using ECU wise? Aus or JDM? just curious about the whole immobiliser thing as It would be a major headache doing an f20 conversion.

Another Q - which fullriver battery did you go? I'm tossing up between a compact fullriver and an SSB for my 4agte ke25 at the moment. Not sure wtf I really need in terms of amp hours but CCA of 300-450 is good.

I'm using a JDM computer. But I did pull the immobilizer out of the adm ecu and the engine started fine.

As for the battery. It's a high crank something or other. Ill have to hav a look for ya when I get home.

Cool thanks my man

So where is this at?

[haveaparty]

It's still getting there lol. Got to get or make diff plates to suit the bigger ubolts as I fitted a g series in the rear. Been a bit slack lately. Got an r31 I've been playing with. Turning it into a drifter. So it's taken priority over the pano cause it doesn't cost me much money.

Finally an update.

So I think I worked out the g series I got us out of a yn57 hilux. I may be wrong still but searched the length and that's what I found. It's 1440 from drum hat to drum hat. About 30mm longer then standard.

So I got the axels redrilled to 4 stud. Wasnt all smooth sailing. I couldn't get the bearings off to release the drum assembly so I asked the guy doin the conversion if he could sort it. He said no dramas.

Well it wasn't all 'no dramas'. first jig he made just didn't cut it


second jig. Nothing stopping it.


finally success


Now 4 stud


diff mounted and measured so its centered and nice and tight so it's not going anywhere


also fitted my sleeve kit coilovers tnite. Still not sure if I want to keep these or get proper coilovers. These ones are missing 2 parts. But fitted them for shits. Won't take long to pull them out after I decide what to do.

Also getting some Ke guards to weld onto the rear. I can now get the tail shaft measured so hopefully be able to take it for its first drive very soon

Love to see something different, this is an awesome build. Keep it up man

Fitted all the flat front panels and quads properly today. Have just been resting on there with a couple bolts in them. Got it pretty sweet considering the entire front section is aftermarket parts. Even made brackets for the chrome bar by modifying the standard slant front brackets. Ground off anything that wasn't needed. Switched brackets from right to left and left to right. Sat it in position and slammed a couple self tapping roofing screws through the brackets to hold them in place. Front looks as good as its going to get. Will stay this way untill it's painted now. Which could be a while.

Next I just need to source a hilux tailshaft, which I may have already. Then I can get the shaft measured and get the s2000 gearbox yoke welded onto the front.

Also need to get some handbrake cables to fit. I'm hoping I can pull the ones out of the stock diff and that will fit into the hilux drums.
