    Default Work in progress

    Hey guys,

    been around the forum for awhile but have only just gotten to the point of putting up a ride thread.

    The car started off as a Blue ADM Sprinter with the 4ac. Then the previous owner sprayed it white..needless to say the job was shit and the guy admitted it. The car even has original log book services up until 170000 km service but nothing after that. Still has original owners manual aswell!

    Now this is how i purchased the car 3 months ago.









    Now since then i have made a few changes. I have done the 4age conversion.

    The 4age was pulled out of a wrecked ae82 rally car that was rear ended. Unfortunately the exact specs aren't, but i know what it has been changed to roughly.

    Small port bottom end with a bigport head
    Lightened fly wheel
    Brass Button clutch
    Unsure of the internals as i havent cracked the motor open!

    Full Car specs as it stands now.
    Motor: 4age
    Exhaust: Hurrican Extractors into a full 2inch mandrel bent system with a magnaflow muffler.
    Susp: All standard
    Wheels: SSR FORMULA MESH 15X7 +1
    Tyres: Toyo R1R 195/50/15


    Planned upgrades:
    Fitment of grill, zenki lip, Duck tail, flared guards
    RX7 Brake upgrade
    Lowering with AJPS coilover kit
    Respray back to original Color (Toyota Ice Blue)
    Disc to Disc LSD Diff

    Pictures as it stands now

    Hey I saw you just after 7-730pm earlier this evening on the Ring road turning left at Greensborough I think?

    Very nice buddy, I was in the Sportivo behind you with HID's head/fog lights really briefly.

    Love the wheels!
