AE71 Haggard Wagon - Moonlight Garage's parts/tyre car ( R.I.P 1984 - 2012 - Gone Too Soon )

[maxhag]

Main things of value that I am worried about is the GReddy coilover (which I never really wanted to put in anyway), and my big brake kit ($1200 kit (custom hubs etc....)..... The rest (intercooler, radiator, fans etc....) are not big dollar items on the scale of things.....
Cant see yet if the front has been pushed into the crank/pulley, but it looks like the engine might be ok. Top cam cover plastic is squashed, so not sure if the timing belt survived....
The only oil that leaked was from the oil cooler lines, and that was all after the engine had stopped. (engine stopped instantly)

Not sure if the ECU (Microtech LT10s) survived. The POSITIVE + terminal in the engine bay (battery mounted behind passenger), is pushed up hard against an earth in the engine bay.... Hopefully the fuses saved it...

The Good:

I lived, with all limbs.......
The turbo setup survived. Manifold (steam pipe), Garrett GT28R, dump etc are all fine......

Ok. Well after the accident, I didn't touch cars for the rest of the year.... It was a good break from cars. I needed it.....

Anyway, the new year is here, and the yard is full of work.....

Here is what occured yesterday.......











Car is a bit shorter now...













I had to do this in the driveway as the yard is full of cars awaiting repair....

Also, I have inspected the GReddy coilover and it looks fine... Everything around the coilover bent but not the coilover These GReddys are tough as! This coilover has survived 2 massive front on hit accidents, in a AE86 and this AE71 acco.

Brakes and custom hub all fine too

Ok, so I took the top cam cover off to find this -




Now, I have checked all the timing marks and they all still line up correctly. So nothing skipped teeth.... Thats a positive sign...
The engine turn over by hand, just as it should....

As far as the engine, I will obviously change the pulleys and get a fresh timing belt. The TPS plug on the loom copped a whack too, so I need a new TPS plug, which I dont have........ Anyone got one they can send me.... Toyota dont sell individual plugs....

Suprisingly, the intercooler seems to have come off best. not really a mark on it! ???? Everything else at the front is scrap metal.....

try anthonyfrom kaizen first but pheonix tuning if you want to pay allot for essentially 1 plug...
