    another newbi from the dark side of the planet.

    Given what I read in the news today it is little wonder that you guys want big guns in more ways than one. Great work that man!

    Castle Auto Electrics Headers on 1UZ RN85R?

    Yes it is. Same firewall/inner wings as the RN85 and the torsion bars are on the upper arms being the IFS 4wd model so not a lot of room

    UZFE into a Ford

    Same thing but 5 door. I seem to remember that the Factory Blaupunkt sound system made it sound like you were in a concert hall no matter if you wanted to play Brahms or Metallica. At the same time Ford Aus also bought the V8 back in with the Fairmont Ghia. Those things were "Sex on wheels"...

    Surf/lexus auto oil supply

    Not had any issues with any so far but the last one I put the Surf mainshaft into the autos as the client wanted the boxes overhauled before use as it had been sitting unused for a period of time and condition was unknown. Those with the trimmed mainshaft still seem to "splash feed" fine but a...

    UZFE into a Ford

    We used to get a few of the Cologne V6 powered XR4i Ghias come thru the Ford dealership that I worked for in the early '90s in NZ. Absolutely beautiful cars yet a tad temperamental (Lucas electrics), stuck to the road like the proverbial "poo to a blanket" and went like the wind. Always thought...

    P/N for Toyota 36-2 Crank Trigger Wheel?

    Actually I think it was a pretty good guess on my part as to which model to pick to try the part no from. Chose a 98 UCF21 Celsior then "Reverse engineered" the part no to see what else it fitted and looks like we hit paydirt. Gotta love toyodiy. FYI if you are using IE you don't get the...

    Fuel issues?

    I've made that stuff-up before and it's something you only ever do once and when you do it takes ages to find then causes much cursing swearing and gnashing of teeth. The lesson learned here and if you have access to factory manuals they also tell you this, but when tracing wiring or even...

    Wanted W58 or R154 Gearbox

    While I do have a W58 which aint for sale (for my Ute) an option for you to consider are the RWD hilux utes, W series from 2000 on in the diesels and the TGN16s have a RWD R150. Not sure about Vic but the wreckers in WA ask around $800 for them and you can fit the 154 gearsets which in the long...

    1UZ-FE into 1975 MK2 Escort

    I don't think that you'll like the way it will handle with the engine as far forward as you have it. Back in the day most V8 "Prostitutes" in Kiwiland were Rover V8 powered and you ended up making a new firewall to get the COG correct. A friend of mine (panel beater) built one and it looked...

    too rich on tick over when hot too..

    So it's supercharged and running a stock Toyota ECU? How has the tuning been done for the FI?

    Fuel issues?

    Again recheck wiring against the diagrams and also ECU pinouts as it sounds to me that you may be missing an ignition feed into the ECU, should be a 40-40-40 and two of the plugs are paired with a bolt in the middle and one is not, the problem is likely to be in the latter and quite likely down...

    Fuel issues?

    Refer back to wiring diagrams and go from there. You have a wiring issue probably with fuel pump control. I had the opposite problem when I did my first one.. Bloody thing wouldn't turn off yet at that time there were no wiring diagrams
