the last one is my fav shot..
cool it..
the radiator hose burst out few days ago, due to a bad clamp..
decided to give the radiator a good cleaning. Using a NULON radiator flush before putting in NULON coolant plus 4 bottles of mineral water.
the oem radiator is a KOYO..
also tested the KOYO radiator for jza80 supra, need alot of modification to fit, its also hitting the hood..
also strip the interior during the weekend, checking for any corrosion, clean the large carpet and sound deadening removal but then decided not to do it as the purpose of this car is not for track/racing or watsoever..plus its noisy..
until nxt time...
Low~
working on cresta thru the weekend, the suspension need attention.
the rear, is a straight on-off task..
here come the tricky part, the fronts..
take off the dust cover to reduce some weight..wot??!! lols
before after~
As we go, we bump into few problems.
The brakes lines call it time, decided to replace it with an Endless braided brake lines.
Oem stabilizer link arm wear out, and not in the correct mouting position to the JIC suspension, decided to leave it till i got the s13 link arm.
And yeah, the brakes, have to stick to original as im out of green. Sold the R33 fronts in december and still havent got the replacement yet.
Replaced the leak brake master cylinder. Since we are removing the brake lines, we still have to bleed the system, so might get this thing done as well.
a 20 year old shit..
install the Viennas~
rolled out the rear guard lip with with this..
job done...
all in all, i need to go low at the rears, need some smaller tyres, a major negative camber, redo the rear fenders..
million thanx Hachiroloko for the company.
Job well done!!

Welcome home
The car now officially home last sunday(14th march 2011) after nearly 2 years doin engine conversion since 19th july 2009. To be precise 1 year 8 months.
After doin few kilometres, the car has its own problem. clutch slip at 5k rpm, the power steering or pump, handling need to be freshen up..thats all i can remember now..
most of the cluster not working,instead i put in apexi safcII,pivot speed meter and omori water temp meter to monitor important indications. this is for temporary only as i have plan to put either digital cluster or custom clusters :)
jigsaw..Putting back in the interior bits and pieces and will do some cleaning as the car is in complete mess.
junkkk..
planning to put this in this weekend..
as for now, i just want to enjoy driving...
