here you go, its pretty Ugly anyway, but smaller, i like the one TwistyToy has might do a similar one when its back on the road?

CONGRATS,on a finished plan, whats the performance like? is the trans using Kdogs tiptronic kit? have you got a pic of the front? does the car look the same as it did a few pages back with the intercooler being the main feature?

Just noticed yours in Guts's thread, LOOKS Great, might do similar when i'm not blowing mine up. i lke your colour coded spark plug covers in there. same for me: if My sig pic is too big i'll change it.

http://www.lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2340 the blow up story will be in here somewhere, at least page 2 i think? basically the tailshaft went bang, then there was a lot of swearing

thats a pic of my motor in the "avator" you will have to resize whatever pic you want in there fairly small, (might not look so good that small too if there's a lot of detail) then edit avator whn you click on the User CP thing on the search bar??? hard to explain, click browse and get it from...

just for fun, i've put a pic in my sig,(hosted on photobucket.com) does it have any issues being the size it is? might not be there long as i might update it with the next explosion of parts thanks Dean

yeah unless you are making the horsepower like me(sideways with the whipping tailshaft)

nah, i will be buying a CRS bell housing CBF mucking around with welding bits like that, if there was no other option that would be a different story.

WOW, found a bit of motorvation! heres a pic of the removed tranny, probably not much use anymore, but will keep it till the car is on the road incase i need something from it??? the starter gear is a bit chewed up, probably why it sometimes did not want to stop cranking, if the car didnt...

GOOD THREAD i may have learned something? I have been in Melborne area(or within 100km) all 32 years of my life, been to Queensland twice recently for holidays, mainly for the theme parks, COOLANGATTA is my pic for best area, brisbane like melbourne and probably most other capital citys is a...

Just thinking out loud. most people would be pinching a V8 beast for a hoon i would guess? how much fun would limp home mode be in a sort of kill switch scenario. i know it would be near impossible to hotwire under the bonnet seeing the starter for one is burried,(push start could get around...

thanks for the info Mate, see how things are going after the new year, i can fit an EA radiator in if i move the dryer for the air con, and get some MORE custom hoses made, seriously considering an EF/EL radiator and fan set up in that case. yeah Keeping Bogans from thinking it would be a good...

any updates on this conversion?

Car - FORD FALCON XE Weight - 1400kgs estimate(will know when engineered) Engine - crown 1UZ-FE Engine Mods - Stock Dyno HP/TQ - ????/???? 1/4 Mile Time/Speed - ??? @ ??? gearbox - W57 supra box diff - borg warner LSD 3.45 computer - crown ECU exhaust - planning extractors 2" pipes into cats...

HEY TIM! i havent seen any Ford CORTINA'S with Lexus motor Yet, Get into it and be the first looks like your engine bay has the right shape?, it fits in an XF Falcon reasonably tight Dean SORRY for stealing the thread a bit Me3

LOOKING REALLY GOOD i think everyones computer looks like that at one time, gee theres a lot of wires! i have a few questions , if you dont mind? Are you keeping the EA radiator? if so how did you sort out the hose size difference on lower hose, i am still trying to find a rasiator that fits...

as said in the text of my pic, yes 1UZ V8will be fitted to it, better than a ford motor, i bought this car for $300, i can afford to buy an import sc400 like yours they can be had for around $10,000 but they weigh about 500kg more, dont come with manual, not really suited to me personally, i...

mine is not going to have any custom outside work at all, total sleeper is the plan, just going to run a 1UZ, supra 5speed 3.45LSD with extractors and crown ECU, single 2.5 mandrel bent exhaust is the plan so far. heres a pic laugh all you like, its a Ford fairmont ghia, 1983.

performance wise, i'd be happy with that as for the rest of it, it certainly looks different, not really my cup of tea but hey i wish i had the skills needed to do such a tranformation. obviously the owner likes it or he would have built it differently. i guess you would think my project is a...

Yeah simple to work out once you know what revs you want at 100km/h eg: 2500rpm X 0.7(overdrive)= 1750, had near this and its pretty slow taking off an overdrive labours a little at 100kmh now for diff ratio swap, 1750(result with overdrive) divide current diff 3.1 multiply by 3.7(diff i would...
