T2 MSW Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Other 2 panels are rubbed down and part primed now. Just run out of primer though so trip to the paint shop tomorrow. Hopefully my plastidip will arrive tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't, you would need something like a 12" et20 I'd have thought or a 10 et0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2 MSW Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 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. .

T2 MSW Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOGIE Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Next thing is get the timing star off. Im sure it must be in this workshop manual Rob UK recently had trouble with his, it shredded his timing belt. You spot welding it in place? Nice work so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich.2211 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) 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...

T2 MSW Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Is there any room on the rear to get a puller on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
