[Defiance]

Thought i might add some of the random Photos i have -

The Remainders of the Halfcut after i took erry thing i wanted from it. The Dump picked it up and gave me $10. hahaha




Beating the crap out of the firewall to get some turbo Clearance



YOU WILL NEED THESE! Freaking Coil Pack Clips.... From the heat in the motor they get Destroyed and no longer hold. Just replace them.



Now.


Previously up i did write i would put up how to fix your Shifter from feeling sloppier than a being the 4th guy in turn for a 3 way.

Pull out the shifter and pull off the black backing rubber.



There is 4 Screw you need to remove and it literally falls apart.


The Bolts you can see here - are the ones where the shaft pivots. - Remove that bolt.



You can see where the rubbers should be. There is nothing there.




This is with the new bushes installed. I linked a photo from ebay on what you need on page one.



There was NO Bushes left inside this originally.

Give it a damn sand and a respray to avoid any future Rust issues.

It was covered in so much damn grease...

And Done!

So its been a while since ive posted anything, May as well update for future reference.

A fair bit has happened since the last post. Family. Daughter being born. You know, Standard things...

First off i got sick of the Twins. They were going to be an absolute nightmare when it comes to the exhaust side of things as they want to come out straight where the steering rack is...

They had to go.





10/10 would NOT Recommend. One of the shittiest jobs ive done in a while



Of course the Exhaust Gasket is cracked. New one time





At least removing the twins made way for exciting times!

GT35 Time





Grabbed a Walhbro 255 of Fleabay, Slapped it in so i can actually keep up with Boost levels...







Old trash 26 Year old Toyota Pump





Of course when going to a single turbo from Twins you need to modify the drain... Toyota originally has a 2 - 1 Pipe

[Defiance]

Rip that off - Throw a Single AN10 Drain on





Been working on the intercooler piping - Its been welded up by a mate as i cannot weld to save my butt






Not a whole lot has happened with Tailshaft... Hopefully in a few weeks will be on the road ready to boost!



Did a few more things on the weekend with the Intercooler piping and Fittings, Starting to look like a real car



The Front Bumper needed a fair bit of massaging - I want it too look like a stock car



Piping all done




Finished Product



Just for funnies the missus went out one night so i was on dad duties while my car needed attending too.. Improvised.
