My Blue Oz Spec AE86, Soon To Be Jap Spec :D

[Medicine_Man]

Heres a pic of my Oz Spec AE86..

Engine soon to be extracated..

[slide86]

not bad, good project starter. but why spend money on extractors for a 4ac. because they will not fit a 4ag

[Medicine_Man]

extracated as in removed

so what are you plans for this car?
what engine do you plan to put in?

[Medicine_Man]

Plans for this car is a nice daily driver.

Throwing in a Redtop 4AGE out of an AW11 MR2

Sourced a JDM intake manifold for it and gave it a quick tidy up and new plugs/leads/timing belt/oil filter...

[Medicine_Man]

Extractors & JDM T50 Gearbox

[slide86]

omg that engine is so clean. did u paint it? or get it painted

[Medicine_Man]

Yeah, I painted it, been doing it slowly bit by bit..

[Jusdrifn 86]

Hey Medicine man,
looking good hey, i love it, good luck with the new motor

i painted my the top rocker covers on my motor, looks awesome, but i cbf doing the whole thing... its gunna be very very sweet

[breno]

very nice! want to sell it? http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

[Medicine_Man]

Motor hasn't been rebuilt, just thought I'd tidy it up while it was out of the car. (Was ripped out of an AW11 MR2 getting a Black Top 20V installed). It should serve its purpose for now anyway. Next thing on the shopping list is the clutch, then I can rip the 4A-C out and bolt the engine and gearbox together and drop it back in.

[Medicine_Man]

You've misread what I wrote, The engine thats going into my sprinter is an ex AW11 mr2 engine (redtop 4AGE) the guy was getting rid of it as he was throwing a blacktop 20V into his AW11 MR2.

[ae86levint]

i have seen this thing in person.....and it looks sooooo sexy.

we have been told that if we are to go near the engine again to bring our bibs.

[E V A N]

That engine looks the shiznit as the kids would say.

[willy]

What side is the slave cylinder on your gearbox??? Started motor side or driver side?

Your car looks nice, perfect donor for a 4AGE

[Medicine_Man]

Gearbox is JDM, fork is on the drivers side. Figured I'd keep the clutch lines away from the extractors and exhaust..

[willy]

Cool, i've heard stories about people being sold "JDM" gearboxes for more when they aren't...

Mine don't even come close... but it all depends on your extractors i guess...

[Medicine_Man]

Not hard to tell the difference between the 2, also the speedo drive is a different ratio..

[Medicine_Man]

Here are the rims that are going on it, still need a bit of a polish..

hahaha nice, motorkahna?

[Medicine_Man]

I'm sure there are pics around with more tyre smoke than that.. Wheres the picture of pin the tacho on the 4A-C?

[Medicine_Man]

Finally got some time today to work on the sprinter project, tidied up the gearbox so I can *hopefully* bolt the gearbox to the engine next weekend.. (4A-C extraction coming soon).

[Medicine_Man]

Got my flywheel machined up today for $38

Clutch kit coming friday!

[Medicine_Man]

Got the right clutch after I found out I got the wrong one..

[upgarage]

looks good

what else u got planned

[Medicine_Man]

remove rust and full respray after i get the engine running, then get the bastard regoed..

[DRFT - 86]

coming along nicely mate.........motor looks very tidy

[Medicine_Man]

Todays Acomplishments.

1. Ripped the 4A-C out of the sprinter.
2. Sold the OZ Spec T50 gearbox. (Money to spend somewhere in the project)
3. Ripped all the stuff I needed off the 4A-C (Sandwitch Plate / Engine Mounts / Gearbox Mounts / Starter Motor)
4. Quick Degrease of the engine bay.

Was a pretty full on day, tomorrows plan is more degreasing of bits, getting the engine mounts on and the JDM T50 bolted to the 4AGE

Would have some pics, but my digital camera is out of action http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/sad.gif

[Medicine_Man]

Gah, found out today I have the wrong throwout bearing, a million swear words would express my anger, meh!

Started de-greasing all the mounts and bits and pieces, Also need to chase up a rear water outlet before I can put it back in..

[Medicine_Man]

Sourced my rear water outlet today and got a bit more work done on the engine.. Engine mounts have been degreased and painted. Had to modify the passenger side engine mount a bit to get it to fit (because the AW11 MR2 engines have the weird sandwitch plate between the block and oil filter). Also pulled the starter motor apart and cleaned it all up.

[upgarage]

Got the starter motor bolted on last weekend.

Also pulled my finger out today and started hooking into the cooling system. Picked up a remote thermostat from the local wreckers for $22.00. (Bargin!).

Few lengths of hose and a few hose clamps later..

[Medicine_Man]

Had to join a few pieces of hose with some pipe to get them to go in the right direction / angle..

[Medicine_Man]

Was like a hachi lego set, just had to put the right bits in the right place.

Just need to hook it up to the heater box now.

Had to hacksaw a fair bit off and bend it here and there to get it to sit where it needed to, a few test fits and I made a trip to get some hose and clamps from the local auto spares shop..

[Medicine_Man]

Sorting out the wiring for the pump will be my next step.

[JinxD]

whats with the tampo-ooh my bad

this thread is gr8 for the diy stuff kudos

[Medicine_Man]

Picked up a VL in-tank lifter pump setup from the wreckers today for the wiring setup ($55 later). Decided against running normal wire inside as I don't know how long it would last before the petrol chewed it away. An auto sparky I talked to said the same thing I was thinking, use the wiring out of another in-tank setup.

[Medicine_Man]

Can drill a hole in my setup and seal the wiring connector in, should be fairly easy..

[Medicine_Man]

Connectors for the lifter pump are already crimped and properly insulated, going to save a lot of mucking around..

[ae86levint]

nicely done http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/wink.gif

[Medicine_Man]

Drilled the hole through the top of the old setup for the wiring connector to go though..

how is this coming along justin?

[Medicine_Man]

Been on holidays lately so the motivation to do anything has been very low. Ended up cleaning up the thermostat housing and putting a new thermostat in it. Filled it up with water but have one minor leak at the back of the water pump, so I'll have to rip it off and permatex the fucker next weekend.. Anyway, I have pretty much all the fuel system ready to go into the car, just need to figure out some form of bracket / mount for my surge tank / fuel pump..

Heres a picture of the thermostat housing all tidied up..

[Medicine_Man]

Thermostat housing back in..

Well, thanks to Anthony, I have a Jap spec brake booster/master cylinder/bias valve now. Got the master cylinder re-sleeved and kitted last week..

[Medicine_Man]

Cleaned up the brake booster today and got it undercoated ready to paint next weekend..

[Medicine_Man]

Rubbed back the brake booster today ready for a coat of paint.

Also put my Jap accelerator cable in too, Is it just me, or is it in a real c*** of a place to get to?

[Medicine_Man]

Haven't updated this in ages so I thought I'd mention that the wiring is nearing completion. Been slowly re-creating the loom and extending it here and there when I find spare time..

All that is left now is to wire everything to the ecu, Add a few relays for the starter and fuel pumps, A length of wire for the battery relocation and an Isolator key.

After that Its time to sort out the fuel system..

Anthony picked up on one of my biggest problems with getting it running. Changing it from (AW11)AFM to (AE82)MAP I needed to change distributers (Luckily had spares). Swapped that over this morning and also found out I had a problem with my injector wiring. Dicked around for a while getting the timing right but it started.. Still bugs to iron out but you get that.. Anyone else notice that 4AGE dizzy caps have the pickup points chewed off to nothing by the rotor button? out of 4 dizzy caps I had, Only one was in good condition..

Special thanks to Anthony the other night for coming over and helping me find my problem. I thought my in-tank lifter would function like the AE86 in-tank pumps but you learn from your mistakes. Half the reason I never fitted the external pump was my inability to adapt the small fuel lines to the bigger size EFI hose. Turns out lack of fuel pressure was why the car would kick over and die out. Managed to get the fuel line adapters off Anthony and got them on today, Fitted the external pump and now the car actually runs :)
