Try maccas... Lol

Check websites of retailers you want to apply for. Most don't use seek, they accept applications through their websites. That's how I got a job at Supercheap Auto :)

thanks, whats involved in working at supercheap?

Yeah. The gearbox/driveshaft etc. are all stock still (1990 ADM) so it looks like the best thing to do is buy a late model turbo halfcut and take the gearbox/diff off that.

Other than that the mechanic said it was a very healthy car, very straight body etc.

He couldn't believe the price I got it for :blink:

or use the camry gearset I posted earlier

you want to buy a halfcut to take the gearbox out? :blink:

bahaha.

Nah, I need the diff and all that shit too. Then sell off the rest of the halfcut and get most of the money back.

It's the best way to do it IMO.

Find me a gen 3 gearbox, driveshaft and diff then :( I bet you won't be able to. A halfcut is like $2500 and I can sell the engine alone for like $2000.

no, what you will end up with is a halfcut sitting in your garage for a bit over a year while cheap fuckers vulture shit off you. Most nga's who you think want to swap an engine will also want the gearbox and drivetrain to go with it, just like you do.

But hey, if you wanna sink 2.5k and not see the 2k you intend to make back in your pocket for a while then go nuts. If I were you, I'd spend a little extra and grab just the stuff you need.

Just sayin from experience.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
