    yeah i'm certain that it's a celsior motor, they must have grey injectors in some of them in earlier/later motors.

    No grey injectors in any 1UZ motor.

    Its possible you are mistaking light purple for grey.

    i had another look and i think you're right. they are very very light purple, with i bit of dust one them in a dark place, so they look grey.

    well i've been lazy lately, and i've trail riding too which is more fun than yelling at car and throwing spanners

    anyhow, my st141 disc setup arrived this week, so i'm gonna get stuck into that this week. i'm getting the diff sandblasted (very rusty) then i'll spray it with galmet and then spray it black. i'll then spray the discs and calipers blue like the front ones, then bolt her together and put it in. i'll have that done by next weekend


    oh yeah, i've observed that i'll have to move the shocky mounts over a bit. not sure how much yet, i guess i'll find out when i cut them off and bolt the diff in.
    beer me!

    Something to add Joe, when you setup the brake lines to the rear calipers, be aware of the position of the panhard mount on the drivers side of the body. My rubber line was a bit close for comfort and I had to change things around a bit, it would be a pita to have to get new hoses made up again. Not sure on the caliper mounting position for the st141 brakes so this may or may not be relevant.

    Cheers!

    well the diff's not in yet, i've been pretty busy at work


    i got my mr2 steering wheel this week, and i just fitted it. it and my steering column needed minor modifications but other than that it was easy. it was the same spline

    here's some pics of it.












    it fouled the horn contact, so i moved the steering column bearing down on the shaft a bit to give me more length on the splined end. it clears now, all i need to do is make a horn disc for the back of the wheel and voila!

    Wow, nice work.
    Looks like a good way of getting a nice Toyota swheel onto a different car.

    well the diff's almost ready to go in, i've just gotta move the shocky mounts.

    i've just bought a house, so soon, i'll have my own goddamn shed where i can put my car in and take the engine out and leave it out while i'm working on it.

    Hey Jo... where did you find your exhaust manifold flanges? did you get them made up? buy them aftermarket? steal them from a kid down at the local park?

    Nah, seriously, i think i'll need some and any info on the cheapest way of getting them would be tops

    take one set of standard steel manifolds, and one 9" grinder, and chop chop chop

    if you do this, you need to weld the two middle pipe flares back in so that the gasket seals on them again.

    i was gonna get some flanges laser cut, but i found out that it'd be damn expensive cuz of all the holes and curves.

    Hey Dave, there is a mob in NZ that do just about every flange in existence.

    Alternately, send me the gaskets and I'll draw them up. (prob easier and cheaper)
