  1. yeah still holding 40psi haven't filled it up since i hit the gutter... lol nah looking for something completly different lots of 4age/ze/te's getting around and 20v's some sr's and 3sgtes but haven't seen a rb anywhere bar the rb30 one. had a good look and made a few calls last night and the rb would be an absolute nightmare to fit :no2: , so i have opted for second best for me but thats up for debate :P 1jz will be getting shoved in. i have talked with a mate running around 400hp from his with minimal mods so i know getting power is no issue. and nah not looking for a 1000hp rolla lol just a street car that i know can beat everything out there. plus it will be the only 1jz i know of around these parts.
  2. hey guys just an update, not much progress made so far working six days a week atm and have been spending a lot of time with my 3 month old daughter so not much time really, but it will continue, going overseas for two weeks soon so put on hold for awhile, bogged and primed most of the rear now. Also looks like engine plans may change spoke with Queensland Transport Department today I said I asked them recently what the maximum sized boosted engine I could put in my car was and of course same answer of 2.4ltrs max capacity I then stated I have been reading over the National Code of Practice the bloke pretty much shat himself he said yeah we currently don't run under that yet but it that it would be coming in mid next year, "around the time I will receive a lump sum of funding for the project". Anyway this means that the Tare Weight of the car is no longer x by 2.5 to find the boosted engine capacity but 2.75 this now allows me to follow my first plan of an rb26 powered corolla. :) :no2:
  3. yeah lost control in the wet and hit a storm drain... fail thats what killed the ae71 bent the lh chassie rail and all. but the tyre didn't pop and is still holding the 40psi that was in it before the accident lol. just wacked it on cause i wanted to test fit them. have driven on it aswell not too bad lol but will get it fixed properly for sure.

  5. hi all my ae71 has been running bad for awhile now just never bothered asking for help :) anyway it won't idle under 1000rpm ever atm it sits around 1000-1300 rpm and it's alright there, it also seems to be running pretty rich due to petrol smell in exhaust fumes. i was wondering what i should do to fix it, it's annoying the hell out of me and atm i get around 370km to the tank ;) so it chews more then a v8 for gods sake ah wellz any help would be appreciated
  6. thanks for the help ended up getting it and puttin it back together but i'm blind as for not seeing that my actual chassi is bent :abuse: now i need to some how get it straightened.... it's the front left hand side and has gone in about err 60 mm towards the cabin and about 50mm out to the left hand side, doesn't look too good, anyone ever done any repairs like this before i was thinkin of a panel beaters but they charge out the ass for little to no work so i don't think i could afford to get it done. any help would be appreciated.
