hello all after a series of extended phone calls lookin for some 18rg bits i have decided and/or been perswaded to put a 1ggte engine in my hilux but im only 16 and the law is i cant drive a turbo or super charged vehicle so i will have to go with a 1gge the late model engine. many people have done these conversions in celicas and hiluxs and i found a guy who makes up looms to suit celicas.
i was wondering:
things i no
- a new fuel system will need to be added
- i found a guy in sydney who will sell me a 1ggte for $650 will a non turbo cost more or less
- i will need a new 5 speed supra box
- i think the gear box cross member needs to be adjustered
things i need to no
- will these looms fit a rn41 hilux?
- the mounts have to have a 10mm spacer added
- will the radiator need to be moved
- will the mounts need to be bolted (mid or bac mounts)
will this conversion be legal
will an engineers certificut be needed
remmember any help/critisism will be much appreciated
hilux + 1gge
