Gave it a full service and some ball joints, bushes, tie-rod ends and a good clean up for the roadworthy and Drove it for a few weeks. was pretty happy with it so time for a birthday. The car is still registered and is currently a bare shell and getting a bare metal respray from the boys at work, work has a service, panel and spray shop rust has been romoved from behind the front screen and still need to do rear and slight rust patch in LHR guarter, all the doors and boot were rusted and had bog so found another gh for donour parts. Doors and boot are good and the boys have metal finished and primed both front doors. just like to say cheers rodge and sam for the work done so far.The genuine turbo 2.0L engine has done 290,000kms and is a bit sad so have removed and will rebuild it. I have rebuilt a 4G54 astron 2.6L from i think a GJ a few years ago for an L300 and only yesterday put the carby turbo maniflods on and got it running on the bench. Also have a TP magna head, manifolds, ECU, dizzy, wiring loom, etc. to inject the 2.6 but will need a new turbo and will need to rebuild the genuine turbo for the 2.0L anyway. Any advice on which way to go would be awesome. looking forward to chatting to ya all and will get some pics of the car some stage this week, just need a camera and someone with some idea what they are doing lol
