    Did u manage to get that engine throug threw that passenger door? Mine went out the bottom

    Barty what engine is going in that ute?

    Um year a General Lexus is around 1g, picked up a mint one the other day for $450 with loom. Rear sump for the vans are hard to find so you pay more for them.

    To Lexus a Hilux which me a a mate have done before and is currently supercharged will cost about 6-7 incld cert. Can do Skyline GTR brake upgrade for them to both mine and his have had this done.

    Oh and yea it is Scott,

    Here are some pics of the mates hilux we spent many hours building, he is probobly to lazy to post them up.
    yip, through the door, literally with mm to spare whole conversion for bout 600 bucks, no certing as its an engine with the same block.

    In another Galaxy a long, long time ago...

    This was our bikes' ride. You would not believe the entertainment this old truck provided for us.







    Sorry can't get the pix to load... but you get the idea.

    The Ute motor is a 18rgu twin cam celica now got the whole thing from the ex brother in-law. Motor has so far had $3500.00 spent on it been fully rebuilt new parts galore in it (wasn't my money )got the whole project for $1500.00 4 years ago just not had the time or $$ to finish (reminds me still owe him $1200.00 for it) although i have got as far a painting the engine bay and fitting the motor to a point you can drive it still needs a big tune up exhaust leather interior to be done and full paint job and wheels and tyres

    I tow my Monoway 3 bike trailer (plug) around with my 2005 Accord Euro. Not the most practical for some of the carparks we get to visit but it does a good job towing and is a comfortable car to drive.

    Thankfully I can swipe the family Discovery III or a mate has a BT50 which has plenty of power for when we hauled 5 CRF's to Waikaretu as pictured.

    That would still be sick now and you could but a 350 v8 in it with a 671 supercharger and would be the mean gas drinking bike hauler.

    That should go ok, its been sitting for a while tho i hope you go and turn it over every now and again. My V8 sat for a while and all the injectors seized, it had me so confused when it wouldnt start. To un seize thee you just tap them and hook 12v up and a push switch and they free up mint.
