Aamir Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Thinking about it, it will do. Apart from his having a 96 spec front bumper on it. Also he never had cruise wings Link to post Share on other sites
Aamir Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Purchased wind deflectors will be fitted when I can be bothered.

I will also be ordering the two bolts which bolt the carrier on to the axel from Toyota which ive been looking for for agesA little snap of how its sat waiting patiently Edited November 1, 2013 by Aamir Link to post Share on other sites
Aamir Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 Engine was going to be put in tonight but the pipes i needed cant be fitted once the engine had been fitted. So i purchased an ABS removal kit from JamieVF22 so hopefully i can get them by next week wednesday so i can get the engine in. Link to post Share on other sites

Aamir Posted November 13, 2013 Author Share Posted November 13, 2013 Thanks guys. It's come along way and its a shame i wont be using it as my first car. Due to insurance purposes. Lewis the engines not too bad. If you have an engine crane its very easy. However, we use a tyre method. Put the front end on axel stands. Put the engine on a tyre with the sump in the tyre. Pull it in the engine bay. Remove axel stands and slowly lower the car down making sure its cleared the chassis and try get both the engine mounts in place. The rear is the easiest so we save that till last. Link to post Share on other sites
