Biggo's bagel as Carina!

[slydar]

the clear choice of engine for this car is a gen 1 3sge.

gen 1 block bolts up to 2s mounts. so its a bolt up proposition in this car.

gen 1 block bolts up to 2s sump.

w box will bolt up with the correct member (sa63)

if you get the right tailshaft, itll bolt up too (sa63 again, also maybe ra40 ect)

the rest is normal fwd to rwd shit really. few tricks but i can go over them with you.

ive got a motor at mine you can look at too.

[biggo]

Fixed

That is probably a good starting point tho. Becaause knowing me she will more than like likely go thru a few incarnations while in my ownership. 3sge is will not the ultimate but far from the worse and probably the sensible approach. I was always anything but sensible meh.

A bit of rading last night unearthed that altezza lsd's bolt into f series irs housings? Anyone know more cos most that ive looked at say you need some special half shaft adaptors.

Colour will be plain jane white, just for the ease and its not such cop bait.

Im going to get wasted and laid this weekend so ill leave it to marinate in tectyl until i get back

bender going on a bender

sounds good but,

as far as i am aware altezza situation is right, know nothing of the half shafts and cvs though.

[biggo]

what did you buy beal?

Might get a detroit locker as new lsd's are $$$

Also found an ra60 coupe with irs that may be wrecked. might have to grab a few nessicities and spares heh.

[slydar]

ra60s are live axle. its a 65 or 63

and F is an F. theyre all cross compatible. only bearings need to be changed.

your half shafts with be fine. its only when like the factory diff was something odd like a torsen or viscous (other brands toy' dont do viscous i dont think) that the half shafts need changing.

i have a F lsd too atm. you might tempt me if you package buy both (motor and diff) with the coil. also have a w box with bell for S.

wern't we talking about this car the other day D?

glad to see it pop up again! toyota 80's FR IRS FTMW!!!

i shall now decorate your thread with insperation.




























too many???

nar... my fave's

yankee style AA63 lift backs

[biggo]

hahaha thanks john, ive been thru all them way too many times now. Apparently the first one (red) has a fake oil cooler. Meh.

Had a RT142 rona come into work today so i had a gander, fark almost everything is different, that goes to most exterior on a celica too.

Might grab a spare rear cradle and go from there, just keep this one for fitment of rims.

PS to those who have offered to buy this, she is not for sale, buy the 86 instead.
