After a month of sitting on my driveway, I finally drove her and went to visit my uncle's barn... and his kids were there as well!

Then we drove to a nearby junkyard, hoping to find a hood strut, to my surprise I saw a '93 sitting with no tires... then $500 later we brought her home.

There was milkshake in her...

Over all she was clean. But the st*pid guy at the yard put a 15" wheels upfront and T100 wheels at the back. The calipers upfront were grinding...

Then on the way home this happened... not the "D" light.... i'm catching up with some of you folks... I may have hit 200k at some point already for having been on 35's / 4.88's with an uncalibrated tacho...

Nice find! How many 80's do you have now?

Just two that are running, a mighty 3FE and a 1FZ... but... my wife only knows of my '94.... Lol. She thinks the '92 is my uncle's and he's just letting me use it....
Don't judge me ok!! :flipoff2:
thankfully she doesn't go on here...
But now we do have 11 with in my family... :censor::bang:

this yard find will be a parts rig. We're probably going to take the chassis and put it on my uncle's 60. Maybe...

:cheers:

Went to a Toyota event over the weekend and got 6 staples in my head....maybe a little backstory is needed.
The 80 was looking fabulous in the driveway all weekend, albeit a bit neglected from all the work going on with the 60 and being banished to the driveway for said 60 work in the garage.

So decided to go support team Toyota Hawaii at a winter holiday event downtown. Started out great! All smiles in the top two photos....then going from bad to worse as I got on ice skates and the back of my head tried to see how hard ice really is! Rushed to the ER and got 6 shiney staples in my head.
**Warning! if you are squeamish, look away from the disgusting bottom middle photo of my skull.

Further proof that this island girl was not meant for the snow/ice!
 
lol, nice work! :bang: Glad you're OK.

If you stayed on the beach this would've never happened...

At least you're OK now. Be safe.

Ouch. Last pic looks like you have the pocahontas thing going on. :doh:

I love all things winter but ice skating is not one of them.

Ice skating and myself don't get along as well....

Get well soon.
 
@Aloha Jen
Hope you're doing well! That's a tough one to have happen! I'm from a cold part of the mainland and I don;t do ice skating for that reason and a couple more.

Damn! That's a headache! Keep the lights low and don't do a lot of bending over or strenuous work. Get well soon!

LC's are looking great though!

Damn, glad everything is relatively ok...
 
And a seal puller for the win. I was being too gentle with the screwdriver last night. I finally found a picture and saw I wasn't going mess anything up.

New crankshaft seal has been installed. I'm now on the fence about cleaning the injectors.
 
if you have the time to do them, do it. it's money well spent. if you don't have a local shop that can handle it, we use injector rx. they have a very fast turn around. they are one of many you can find online.

Ouch! Glad you are ok. See that is why you need to stay in the 80 when out in the snow and ice. Trust those KO2's to get you through the slick stuff.

It was a time thing. I found a local shop that does what RC Engineering does.
 
Good to go, I dropped off my truck to get 4.88s and 3:1 low installed today.
Can you share your cost estimate for the 4.88 gear install? I'm very interested in doing the same. I'm more than happy with the stock 4 low gearing.

I have the Ultragauge in my 80 and I chose it over the scangauge because I prefer the larger display. Much easier to read at a glance.
This pic is a little deceiving. It doesn't block any of the factory gauges in this location.

UltraGauge EM can only display what Toyota gives access to. Looking at the list 75% is not available on a 80 series. The MX unit claims the ability to show trans temp but I have yet to see anyone with a 80 series or late model 100 series get trans temp out of an ultragauge. I get trans temp from all my 100 series from 1999 - 2006 using an ScanGauge.

You can also calibrate a ScanGauge to display accurate MPH something an Ultragauge can not do. Correct me if wrong but if your UltraGauge is not showing correct speed than your MPG, DTE, MPG, Avg MPH and other MPH related info is not accurate either.:meh:

Like most stuff they all have some positive and some negative feature. Im happy with both given me what I want is both the 80 and 100 series.
 
Hit the gym this morning and saw this...dumb, but nothing else remotely exciting going on I guess :meh:
