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.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
