drift freak Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 Looking good mate, hey what did you find with your clutch fork???? Was it installed properly or was there another problem?? Quote
Jordain Posted November 14, 2012 Author Report Posted November 14, 2012 was installed correctly, just the pin was to short and not enough leverage on the clutch lever Quote
drift freak Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 Sweet, easy fix :) got anymore photos?? Quote
Jordain Posted November 15, 2012 Author Report Posted November 15, 2012 Peal sticker off, paint dash white again... Install new carpet, Bride seat and a Classic nardi and the interiors done. I've modified the accel pedal so its no longer a floor mounted one. The cars done... Everythings basically finished, except it doesn't start!!!!!! Somethings wrong and i'm not sure what it is, got a mate coming around this afternoon to sort it out since his supposedly the King of 4a's haha! 1 Quote
Jordain Posted November 23, 2012 Author Report Posted November 23, 2012 ae71 radiator installed Car runs awesome, it's so good. KE20's and 4a's are meant to go together.. shame mines blown up twice already out it came The T50 was ʞ©$ɟed that i put in, and the motor was slapped together by the bloke i bought it off.......... Had random rod caps in it causing it to not get any oil pressure.. SO i'm building a 4a smallport atm for it.. blacktop bottum end and a 16v head. I'm going to get proper RWD water set up as i don't like the FWD crap...... 2 Quote
Jordain Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Posted November 30, 2012 Explains a bit lol. Motor will be in by tomorrow night and rebuilt. 11:5:1 comp, 272 cams, rebuilt... serviced head etc blah blah blah... haha Quote
orangeLJ Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 Looks like someone burnt some valves and cheaped out on a full new set there.... Just whack some liquid metal on the piston man, she'll be right! haha. Quote
kickn5k Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 Spun big end or over-rev on a down change? Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted December 5, 2012 Report Posted December 5, 2012 First time I seen this thread…lol full of WIN. Quote
Jordain Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Posted December 6, 2012 well farkin heaps has happened to this car... Where do i start... blew the 4a up... so kinda rebuilt/slapped one together..... -Smallport block and head -blacktop pistons, rods and crank -Bigport cams -Smallport oil pump -- blacktop internals ^ ^ ^ That motor lasted 1 day...... ʞ©$ɟ knows whats wrong. I should've taken more care when building it instead of slapping it together........ so onto motor # 5 SOOOOOOO dropping motor off to Norwest engines to have the bottom end built, and the new motor has a reco head on it.... soooo hopefully by next friday it's running again and will last!! Bought BC coilovers for it yesterday, bought an RN85 HILUX diff for it aswelll........ although CBF running Hilux diff, going to chuck a H165 Datsun ute diff ( around 7" Same as T SERIES ae86 ) into it... cheap and dirty! Bought T3 camber tops and T3 cam gears...... THought about buying T3 pulley kit but ehhhhhh... Also picked up a really old Adaptronic and LOOM for a 4a and T3 adaptor and ITBS with trumpets........ sooo more than likely going mild 4a with a set of 256 or 272 cam's that i've got sitting around on ITBS for it....... haha!! Oh well update soon with pics! 1 Quote

Jordain Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Posted December 29, 2012 Sooo engine #5 was in the car for another week.... This time, there was nothing wrong with it. It blew smoke on startup... It is a solid motor, But a friend has an ae86 notch that we put a blacktop 20v in and pulled the old Jap 16v with ITB's and adaptronic out.... sooooooo that's gone into my car now. The two culprits Dodgy maltese helping me at 3am Got it fired up and runs pretty good.. has a big flatspot though..... Finishing wiring ATM. Looks sickkkk! Quote
