Just realise the Rota force drift are the same wheels as on the 2bartuning supra and that looks hot :) Just need to check the offset 20 on the rears with a 10.5 rim will fill the arches.

 

You need to run proper sized wheels to make this car a stunner again, 12" rear minimum.

They won't, you would need something like a 12" et20 I'd have thought or a 10 et0.

Yeah after ages of looking I realised the 10" would fit in a lower ET, Rota only do the GTR-Ds in ET0 so its pointless as I dont want that wheel. Will carry on looking :(

The black MXR look great an all, they come in a 11" et8 that I'd have thought would work.

Sorry I meant the only wheel they do in a ET0 is the GTR-D. I dont like the GTR wheels. but the grid drifts simply wont fit.

 

TheMXR is growing on me.

Continued stripping the engine down today ready for when my parts start to arrive.These toyota workshop manuals are ace, its got every but if information in you could possibly want to know.

Head is off and started to clean up the block head surface ready for the new sealant and gasket to go on. Will be putting the L19 head bolts in later today after the F1.

 

Best bit is there does not look to be any damage anywhere and all looks in good condition. The previous owner had a lucky escape with the timing star, its not welded and you can see where the two parts have been slipping round each other :blink:

Rob UK recently had trouble with his, it shredded his timing belt. You spot welding it in place? Nice work so far

 

The two parts need welding on the reverse to ensure it does not slip. I can see it would not be difficult for it to shread a cam belt.

 

Does anyone have any great ideas getting the timing star off the crank? I have an SST tool but the star seems welded on to the crank and has sheared one of the 6mm bolts in the timing star before it even looked like it was going to move :(

Have you had any luck with the timing star?

 

Really daft thing to spot but I noticed your oil pump has "Toyoda" stamped on it as well as Toyota..

 

Toy..Yoda... The sun *may have gone to my head :D

 

Odd that one ive never spotted it, though it may be not a genuine part put heres a pic of one from future motorsport and its the same.

Is there any room on the rear to get a puller on it?

 

If the rear puller had very thin jaws on it yes. Think thats the route im going to have to go and maybe apply some heat. it just wont move.

 

Trying to find one on egay currently but they all have massive clamps on the end andthats not going to cut it or they are for battery terminals
