Modify the AC and keep it as well

[GTSR22]

He's too good to you though Greg. It has air-con as well!!!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

ya but we might have to take it off due to the genuwine trd extractors

cheers

[GTSR22]

mm good idea geoff, and it is going to 42 degrees today

[ylwgtr2]

that looks like the 18RGU yamaha head engine....i used to have one of those in an RA28,I rebuilt the engine using 18RG non pollution pistons as they has 10.2 comp ratio instead of the "U" engine has 9.2 or there abouts....i stuffed a huge set of cams in it and it was lumpy as all fark....then i done this in the end....i swapped the engine into a ke 30 corolla and then sold the set up to a chap with a ta22 and this is what it looked like

[RBN1]

awesome. Very nice.

[funkymonkey]

lol Ron should stick to his GTR. Didn't he get a celica similar to yours for some guy in Ireland ages ago?

Troy I thought the "U" engines were the non pollution ones?

[ylwgtr2]

nope....the u is pollution

[ylwgtr2]

C Californian pollution control (also most of the world)

D Uses leaded fuel (Super) when base engine uses regular

E Electronic Fuel Injection

F Twin Cam (economy)

G Twin Cam (sports) with multiple sidedraft carbs (unless EFI)

H Unknown but never combined with -B or -C

i Single point fuel injection

II Unknown - possibly denotes L.A.S.R.E

J Unknown, possibly autochoke, possibly another anti-pollution control

L Transverse mounted engine (only used around 1985 when transverse was new)

M Phillipines market (details unknown)

P LPG fuel

R Low compression for regular (not super or premium) fuel.

It has always been my dream to get my hands on a 1GZ and shoe horn it into a tiny car

[GTSR22]

Got to say Greg was saddened when you told me the 32 plans were dead in the water...but when you told me what was replacing it

Then the pics...thats a pretty cool car. Heres to hoping it has an old world tough idle

[funkymonkey]

speaking of cramming big things into little bays...

also... one of the fellas locally managed to cram a landcruiser V8 under his hood, so its not that far fetched.

[inark]

that landcruiser V8 looks a hell of a lot like a 1JZGTE

(or is that what they look like without those cover things on em?)

i know theres a couple of spoontas in NZ with 1JZs

[funkymonkey]

that landcruiser V8 looks a hell of a lot like a 1JZGTE

That's coz the one in the pic is a 1JZ AE86 engine bay is about the same size as the celica as well.
