Toyspeed

Can anyone help me - I need to know what fwd manual box bolts to a 2c-t (2L diesel turbo - found in some older camrys, non-turbo found in corollas).

Haha old joff eh? What you doin on a toyota forum?

I've got some pics of the shell that i'll chuck up here once I can get them off the camera (technical difficulties...).

Ive been sorting through the parts and giving her a good look over, there is some rust that I didnt see before, but nothing ...

early gze bottom ends are the strongest of the lot , they have the largest rods and lowest compression pistons.

Cheers for that info. Ill be on the lookout for an early bottom end then, but not that one on trademe methinks (dont really want to fork out for brand new pistons).

Ive also found ...

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... d=69536905 I'm considering this, however it doesnt have the oil squirters so i'm guessing its an early gze bottom end, which arent as strong? Plus there is the obvious problem of it needing a rebore. Can get oversized pistons from Warwick for $600, but is it really worth it? hmm...

After a long spell away from Toyota's, i've been bitten with the bug again and have just purchased a Ke20 rolling body that will be the base of a project.

Lets just say its some assembly required at the moment...

Hopefully I can stay committed to it in the long haul and make something choice out ...

I've just had a cobra 7928 alarm put in by the car stereo company on kent tce. $695 installed and its thatcham category 1...

Hmm bugger... I'll have to see if I can persuade the doors to fit larger speakers...

Can anyone tell me what the sizes are of the 4 standard speakers in a mk3 supra? I would like to have replacements that will fit at least in the standard location in the doors - i think the back ones will be too oddball though. I dont have my car at the moment so I cant check myself.

Who does your tuning?

sweet cheers guys

Does anyone know where i can get a remote oil filter kit for a 1uz-fe in wellington? the oil filter is currently in a prick of a place hehe...

what are they generally worth too?

Oh when I say it doesnt idle, i mean it doesnt idle at all - as in it dies everytime its started - I have to keep my foot on the throttle and bring it up to aobut 1000rpm until its warmed up a bit before it will idle properly.

1uz in an s13? niiice...

The engine is pretty stock, just a pod and ...

I recently emailed the car stereo company here in wellington asking for a quote for a dynatron d7800 alarm for my 88 supra, and they replied that they would actually recommend a Cobra AB7928 over it for $695 installed.

Can anyone tell me about the cobra? what advantages does it have over the ...

Sweet as. When i get some cash ill take it somewhere to get re-tuned anyways (because i dont really know what state of tune its in at the moment), and see what can be done about the cold start at the same time.

Ok cheers for that, I might take it somewhere that deals with links once ive got the clutch sorted.

thats the thing though... i doesnt seem to be throwing in any extra fuel because it just stalls when cold - so i need to have it programmed to throw in extra fuel when cold.

Whenever i start the supra up, it wont idle until it has warmed up (to about 20-30C), so does that mean that the link hasnt been setup for cold starting? can i take it to a tuner and have it programmed for cold starting?

also, the a/c wasnt hooked up when the engine was put it. the pump is still ...
