Cheers man. As they say don't fix what ain't broke. Could you not just swap in a tach from the V6 model 4 runner? Or did usdm not come V6? That's how I got my tach working, just using a 4 cylinder one. As the 1uz has 2 igniters I just took a single signal now it thinks it's a 4 cylinder.

Also what did you end up doing to your input shaft re the spigot bearing? Find a bush or turn the input down? Or nothing?haha

Finally someone that understands this! I can't believe how hung up some people are on this. Good to see a 1jz in a surf. Done a 1uz into my surf.

Same here brother! We can suffer together!

@Crick60 Had a quick look for ya. Only found 1 threaded, 6mm hole on the R/H side. Plenty of random holes but only the one with any kind of threaded insert. Haven't touched it for ages, as above its pretty hectic atm. Hopefully have some more time this weekend. @cruiser182 Didn't realise you...

Dont have alot of time atm. Back at work (14hr days) and making hay. Next time I can, ill have a look and get some pictures. Awesome. Yea I think its pretty important to get in behind it. Gives me motivation to get mine done. I can fix anything, maybe not that thou...

Well that escalated quickly. The roof lining and sunroof are now out. After pretty much catching the lining on fire, it was time to come out. Man what a PITA! Managed to remove it in pretty much one peice. Just incase I need it as a template. For the time being, Im pretty much just thinking of...

Typical commonwhore! Awesome 60 mate. Whats in the skyline?

Middle earth? Im guessing thats something to do with, lord of the rings? Proud to say ive never seen them haha! Typical aussies. Pavlova, farlap I could go on. :p Look forward to getting to the good stuff. SOA and driving!

Auto correct? Australian? No need to be swearing like that! A great day to be a New Zealander!

Decided to get some stuff done. Got what I needed to do, done on the falcooon. Finally back up to scratch! Finished the rebuild on KTM after it/I destroyed it down the beach. Then chucked the snorkel on the Surf. Started cutting out the rust. Pretty nasty, nothing I cant fix. Firstly cut...

Convertible? Sounds like a hell of a job! Might snap in half! A service is on the to do list. Had it up on the hoist. Chassis is pretty good, little bit of surface rust here and there. All the oil leaking everywhere probably helped!

Falcon to get the 4 runner to get the 60 to get the S14 Silvia to get the DD peugeot to get the RMZ250 to get the KX250 to get the KTM250sx! I think I have to much crap. :bounce: At least it can all stay inside!

Cheers for the replies guys. Crick60 - Had a look at Spudmans build. Thats an awesome way of doing it. Too bad I don't have another body laying around. Pretty keen just to fix up the rust holes and then try stop it. It more or less is just a hack. Dont really want to drop heaps into. Time will...

Hello, new here. Recently got a HJ61 12ht, auto, pto winch landcrusier for a steal. Original plan was to steal the diffs for my 1uz powered toyota surf/4runner. This thing runs and drives like a dream, they are becoming rear as heck and are a pretty neat 4WD. Only down fall is the house...
