A Few Front Cut Questions

**chubbylover53** · 31-08-2006, 07:05 PM

I'm doing my final stages of research into exactly what i need for putting a 1ggte into my RT142 corona.
so far i have found out that i need a GX81 (chaser) front cut cause it has the front sump with a gen 3
My question is can u get a GX81 in a manual and gen 3 cause i always thought they were auto. Also is my above information the correct info.

Oh yeah and how does one get rid of a stripped front cut. do i have to pay someone or will someone pay me to take it. i plan on stripping it completely and selling the parts i dont want.

Cheers Mike, (sorry for such a noob question)

You could trailer it to a metal recycler, and they will pay and weigh as the slogan goes.
Or a car removal place will take it for free usually, cos they take it to get crushed and pocket the money for giving you a tow.
Or dump it outside a wreckers, neatly

Ring around, someone will happily take it

GX81's come in manual config..... thats exactly what im running.

gen3, 1ggte manual.

the GX81's also have a FAT sump.... its very wide to say the least

you could cut the front cut up which will make for easier transport

My gx81 was converted to manual in japan as it was using an auto ecu, and the wiring was modified/cut from the auto. Also the data plate said it was auto. I guess I was just lucky. You dont really need a front cut though, I wouldnt buy one again. You just need the engine and wiring and I guess you will be modifying the 22R mounts?

Same with what I am doing. I am stripping off the front cut as well. The place import the front cut for me is wierd, I bought whole front cut and they told me "when you're done with putting engine in and stuff, give us a ring so I can come pick up the rest panels and etc". Then I was like hey I bought this shit and I have to give some parts back to you so you can sell ... so what I'll do is strip out all suspensions and whatever I can get out and sell then I'll call him to come pick up the leftovers hahaha. But yeah you could give wreckers a call, they would be more than happy to take it from you.
