In using a SC400 shaft, would there be any modification up the diff end required? In terms of connecting the shaft to the diff I mean. If its not too bad, maybe sourcing a spare sc400 (aka soarer?) shaft and possibly having to shorten/lengthen it maybe a damn sight cheaper than going a full...

Here is a thought (albeit a bit strange). With all the talk of having to modify transmission couplings due to the difference in driveshaft types, would it be possible to use a full two-piece SC400 driveshaft and mate it to my project car diff (Commodore/Calais)? The issue then would be...

Giving it a good wash will net you an extra tenth or two!!! :P

Now for some more video's eh? That would be noiyce to hear.............. :D

Hah! that's awesome, a mini-van with a quad-cam V8!! Hehe, well done. Hope you iron out the problems..........

Ooooooooo, niiiiyyce......... I've noticed a few cobras floating around town already.... Pity I have to work all w/e. Damn these grand opening sales!!!!

Any piccies of your engine mounts? Oh, and your log exhaust would be interesting to look at!!! Thanks MaxPower!

Sure sounds like fun, I reckon I might have to drag my sorry carcass up there too. Hey, if miracles happen, my car might even be ready.....*cough*.

I also believe Sideshow (a member of this site) can supply converters, which you can plug your mechanical speedo cable into, and it still sends the right signals to the 'puter and stuff.

Fanbluddytastic! That certainly is a job well done. Gets me excited again about my project. My half cut is paid for, and I pick it up in 2 or 3 weeks, then start in earnest for putting it in my VK Calais. Like you have found, I think the biggest problem will be the exhaust, I may have to...

yea no dramas dude, will probably do up a diary of the conversion for all to see. When do you plan starting yours?

Hmmmmm, did your halfcut come with any driveshaft (obviously cut) left attached to the box? If I understand you correctly, it didn't. If this unit did come with some driveshaft still connected to the box, couldn't I just get a driveshaft maker person to modify the current drive shaft by...

Thanks Krayn, much appreciated.

Do any Crowns come in front sump design? The guy at the Toy Shop in Newcastle is swearing black and blue he has a front sump crown half cut. From what I've read here, the only front sump is the Celsior. Aaaaahhhhhhh!!!!! What do I do?

Since my transplantee (VK Calais) is currently carby, I will am planning on throwing in a fuel tank, lines, and pump from a VL to suit the new V8. It has been suggested to me that the EFI six fuel pump (for the RB30) from the VL will not be able to keep up with the demand from the 1UZ...

OK, I'm in a quandry here, need some suggestions. I am just about ready to go and purchase my half cut (like within the next week or so). I was all ready to get a Crown, but then the Celsior keeps jumping in my head. Some advantages and disadvantages I can think of between the two at the...

4 1uz-fe's eh? Put em all in the one car (one for each wheel). Niiiiiiiice.......

Thats the first time I've ever seen someone converting a Nissan to anything other than a NISSAN! Good luck mate, hope you have fun with it. And show us some pics of you drifting!!!! Cool, a toyota powered nissan. Gotta love that.

Probably, two arms, half a leg and your dog should cover it. :D

Hmmmmm, methinks you need a "Language" warning on that video of yours, young Peewee :p Not allowed to have fun like that in your cars, naughty naughty.
