I'm sure there's things I've forgot but I'll as I go.

The story really starts well I was going to attend a Downshift circuit and coffee, when I unfortunately cracked a piston




And then the debates began on what motor to put in it and the..........




And the end result was 4G63

Bored so I thought I'd put up a few more pics of what I've done recent

Originally was going to use r31 rear brakes but the guy that bought the hilux diff off pretty much stuff up on the mounting point so the strut mounting point are to close to the ends so the calipers foul on the struts. So I went which the rx7 because they the handbrake pulls from the side where the r31 pulls forwards to activate the handbrake. Probable a bit of and an over kill but the get that..


Got bracket made up to take the rx7 rear brakes




Nice fit in there



Also fitted the my Zenki lip to my Kouki bumper with the help of this thread.


Just need to get it painted








P.s. 2 wheelie bins are the best thing to sit the front bar on to stretch the lip on

So a bit more progress. Got my catch can/ washer bottle made up


And welded on bottom radiator mounts
