Builds 2F + (3F-E) = 2FETI Into My FJ40 (1 Viewer)

[White Stripe]

Negotiations are underway

Your buying it back? Or just the engine?

 

[matt.mcinnes]

Baby is coming back

 

[JohnnyC]

Are you going to need to fix PO's mods or repairs?

Or is it the way you left it

 

[matt.mcinnes]

Pretty much as I left it clutch is in need of replacing, but that's the same one from the original build.

Though I may do a ground up rebuild.

Question is do I start a new thread or continue this one. Opinions?

 

[LAMBCRUSHER]

keep it in the family...it belongs HERE. a saga like this shouldn't be kept in two books...

 

[White Stripe]

Sweet! Ground up rebuild? Why?

 

[matt.mcinnes]

It's been away 5 years I guess I'd like to get re acquainted.

 

[JohnnyC]

X2 keep it here

 

[AussieHJCruza]

X3 keep it in this thread

Hullo there Matt. Going diesel eh! About time too..

Maybe your move to an oil burner will convince @tmarx on the error of his ways and get him to reverse his BJ42 conversion (from 3B to 1UZ)..

Looking forward to reading your progress posts again..

Noooo no Diesel. NEVER.

I'd go 15bft and compound turbos. More room for a decent intercooler and more efficient at lower loads.

No Diesel projects here move on

How bout some pics of her?

 

[Pin_Head]

I think you should start a new thread. You can't duplication the magic of this one. It is about building the most expensive 2F in the world.

The new thread could have an entirely new focus, like winning races.

How bout some pics of her?

I pick her up on June 20 in Brisbane, then time to get reacquainted on the 2 day drive back to Melbourne

 

[Coolerman]

I vote keep it here. Can't wait to see the old girl again. I have read this thread at least three times!

might need a bit of a rebuild, if someone was thinking of putting a stinking diesel in her it needs to be ridded of such filthy ideas
