My New IS V8 Build
My New IS V8 Build
well got back to today at 7 in the morning took a lot of brakes on the way back. Right so far the car sounds amazing and has few problems to sort out.
so phoned up Thor racing today for the adaption kit for the R154 gearbox to the 1UZFE and they said they have them in stock just the transmission bracket will be made end of February so i am going to order the gearbox on Monday so i get everything soon and the bracket will come later.
went down to the my cousin's garage called cruise motor sport. they have done a few conversions so far. they will be working on the car from now. the plans so far are to get the engine out the car because the manifold gaskets need to be changed and there is not enough clearance to get the manifold off and once the engine is out it would be easier to get the gearbox hooked up to it. the mechanic is also going to look over everything that has been done to the car so as far as i know everything is perfect. while the engine is out the battery is getting moved in the boot so its a side but at the moment the battery is sitting in the passenger side. then the ECU will go on and remapped once everything is mechanically working and fine thats when i am going to start working on the body work.
will keep everyone updated about everything .
have not got any pics just yet but will take some soon and post them up so people could see the car now.
