Torana Lx Gtr Hatch, Lots Of Pictures
turbo76lx replied to turbo76lx's topic in Projects, Overhauls and Build-ups
Time for an update, haven't touched the torana for the past year, but I decided to build myself a whiskey lounge. Only a few small jobs left to do then I'll clean up the shed and sell some of my skyline spare parts then back into the torana. Dog found his seat.- 383 replies

Put another coat over the shell and rubbed it back again, the shell is now rapped up and need to start on the doors. Also got the motor back from JPC and started fitting the manifold, sump etc. The motor has, CP pistions 9.0:1, Spool I beam rods, Spool oil pump gears in N1 housing, APR head studs and main studs, Tomei cam gears, Nitto head gasket, Ross balancer. The head has only had new valve spring, will be running the standard cams as I need to pass a full IMR240 emissions test. Also had to finish off making the oil pick up. -

No sorry guys it's going to be mandarin red the reason is when I was a first year apprentice I brought a LX SS 253 hatch with flares. I had the car for about 7 year until a woman failed to give way and T boned me. I kept the motor and sold the rest off, I've always regretted selling it and not fixing it. -

The colour is going to be mandarin red with black outs around the side window and tail lights but probably not the black bonnet. -

Not much to look at, still a lot of sanding to do but your welcome to come around. The way i'm going it's going to take at least another 10 months or so until it's done. -

Bit of an update, the rear bob tail needed a but of work to get the gaps better, basically cut off the side of the outside pieces and fibreglass them back on and add some fibreglass to the centre section. Got a couple of coats of All-U-Need poly primer on the shell and started sanding. -
