jonny mac Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) fixed that stupid issue the odometer had with the mph converter adapter, the odometer counts in km's and the speedo reads in mph now, rather than the other way around Edited July 24, 2017 by jonny mac (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonny mac Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 yeah got one thanks it's in the boot, just haven't put it back on yet as I left them off incase I'd needed bumper off to solder indicator loom (without realising it's easy enough to access with headlights out) will be attaching the bumper on with all 300 mounting points before it's on the road speaking of which, I need to do some research on fitting a fmic and retaining the active spoiler, gte plans are go haha!

Great looking car man! I know it is difficult to retain the active spoiler and add a fmic, but I'm sure it can be done. If you decide to sell the active spoiler setup, let me know and I'll buy it off of you!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 I love it so I doubt I'll be selling. Will prob have fmic end tanks adjusted to take the pipes away from the lip motor Drove the car tonight. Speedo is dead but odometer counts as normal on the trip computer so I'll need to check my dash board clocks actually work. All I'd done was cut out the speed converter and join up the original loom back together with correct colours behind the odometer. I'll work it out when I have spare time. The auto box is smooth but I think it'll have to go asap. It's just not for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) bought some of these: 55 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr the w58 didn't sell and it's probably for the best, it makes the manual swap easier for now, prop and mount etc all bolt straight up, saves spending hours fabricating stuff i can buy a 6 speed of some sort in the future loads of time to worry about strong gearboxes, don't even have a proper vvti 2jz gte yet bought a new exedy cluch for doing the swap too, also ordered a new rear crank seal from toyota my rear sticks arrived from toyota, came with all fixings too which was cool 53 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr today i assembled the clutch pedal, using proper grease on all bushings and rods that pivot/move i'd collected all the little parts from toyota over the past while, followed a list from online showing which parts to order and i was rather pleased today to find out that i wasn't missing anything 52 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr Edited July 24, 2017 by jonny mac (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Great thread. Absolutely loving it. Would you be able to give me the part numbers for the rear sticks please. I could do with some new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny mac Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) new stainless steel backbox arrived, i've also got a load of 3" stainless steel pipe so i'll get a new exhaust system made 54 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr ] so i whipped off the autbox on friday eve, also done the rear main seal with a genuine Toyota one the starter is out too as it's being replaced 56 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr 57 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr new exedy organic clutch disc arrived in time for putting the box back in 58 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr so that's the new pilot bearing in, the new toyota rear main seal, used flywheel, arp bolts (i think they were arp), new exedy organic clutch disc and a few hundred mile old pressure plate on 61 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr bearing and fork done, put some grease on the bearing shaft and input spline too 59 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr for now i've trimmed the autobox tunnel open to allow the remote shifter to sit correctly without rubbing the body, i do have the manual tunnell to fit and should have had it done at the weekend however i just didn't have the time/space available to strip the interior out and move the carpet for welding etc, it'll be done when i do a gte swap and the engine/box are out compeltely prop is on and box filled up with new oil 60 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr now for the crap part, there's a bolt at the top of the clutch pedal assembly to support it from the higher part of the car's bulkhead behind the clocks it's not a bad job, just a bit awkward, pop out the rubber bung, drill from the inside of the car and use the two holes as guides imprinted from the factory on the first skin of bulkhead then hang the clutch pedal from the top, line up the holes and slide in the clutch master cylinder adjust pedal height, then adjust clutch master cylinder so it has no tension on it when the pedal is not engaged, basically so you don't wear out the clutch without it releasing fully 62 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr i'd made the clutch pipe using copper line with flared ends and nuts for now, it'll be replaced with a braided one this was to make sure it all works, it goes down into the rubber hose on the w58 slave cylinder ignore the gear stick please, it's just a spare from an old drifty s14 i had, nothing to do with the supra, it was just thrown on there as temp the manual surround also isn't correctly fitted in the pic 63 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr also joined up the two big black wires on autobox inhibitor switch loom plug to let the car start apart from that, after a bleed with new dot 4 fluid, the clutch works and it's awesome to have a manual mkiv insuring it in the next few weeks, will make an exhaust first then it's ready for the summer! skirts to fit also!!! 65 by Jonny McIntosh, on Flickr so there's a few things left to do tidy up trans tunnel and get rubber surround for gear stick beneath manual plastic pannel, cut rubber straight for brake pedal, fit new gear knob, try find oem wind deflectors and have the windows tinted buy hid's and led front sidelights, also wire up sidelights down in the facelift indicators, fit side skirts, make a cat back exhaust Edited July 24, 2017 by jonny mac (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
