yea finney its a 165 engine. other future mods are planned for it. atm just wanna get it in and running.

well here a progress report of what happened today.

got the cooler on and made up some pipe work for it.

http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/warrior007/cooler.jpg


lifted the car 6 feet in the air to get the motor under it with the trolley Very Happy

http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/warrior007/uphigh.jpg


motor went straight in without too much fuss.


http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/warrior007/enginein.jpg

now the tedious task of putting all the components in and wiring it all up.

wont be able to work on it for a couple of days...doh.

thanks for the comments guys.

Go nuts brutha... I considered a conversion to mine, but my girlfriend found an early gen ST-165 GT-4. It looked a bit rough but I couldn't resist. It was in the shop for about a year, just saving enough to get the engine mods done, now makes 160 kw at all fours on 14 psi (high flow factory turbo).

well still going with the conversion, doing a McGyver on the wiring, having to extend wiring and tap into the ST162 harness to make sure all the components will work according to factory standards. mind you I dont have a book or manual to work off.

here are some pics of the mods done.

suspension upgrade (yes they are KING SPRINGS)

http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/warrior007/kings.jpg

thicker CV shafts (notice the difference.)

http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/warrior007/cvs.jpg

the wiring

http://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v293/warrior007/airinlet3.jpg

the next step will be to jet propel the ST162 it should look something like this without the jack and stands. Laughing

Sorry to bug ya on a different topic but where did you score the front bar and front quarter guards. I have been trying for 2 years to find a left one. I need the little bumper extention on the bottom of the guard, some mole crashed into mine and I haven't been able to replace it since Very Happy .

Sorry I can't offer any advice.

you don't wanna know what lengths I have gone to to organise mine..

karl! THAT'S DEAD SEEEXEEH! Very Happy man I can't wait.

kidst165...I dont think anyone would seperate the side bits from the front bar. and if they do GRAB IT. Rob and I are going to extreme lengths to get ST165 parts we are actually getting them from the U.K. Shocked

yea Rob..looking good. sideshow managed to get me in on Friday which is fantastic. I dont think I could have handled another day. Razz

Yeah, that was my only option, but it seems I keep seeing heaps of other guys that convert their cars to 165 spec, and I still haven't found one. They are ghost parts, even Toyota didn't have any when I claimed it thru insurance, everything was original parts except the bumper and guards.

Thanks anyways...good luck with it all...where are you guys based maybe we'll meet on the street for a lil 165 fun.

it sounds crap at the moment cause I havent fitted the muffler.

I had everything right which I am very estatic about, just a few thing that needed re-doing, like the intercooler water pump and the thermo fan activation. but the motor is smick after all its only done 61K , the wiring tidy up begins. but man its BOILING outside.

but your right I have a grin from ear to ear now. Very Happy Very Happy

put the car back together over the weekend...topped up all the fluids and bled the clutch.......started the car put it into gear ...and theres a noise coming from the clutch bearing.. its as loud as anything...and its a new bearing.. Crying or Very Sad I have to take out the gearbox now.. Mad Mad Mad going to be so hard as I will only be able to put it a couple of hours a day into it now.

was hoping to have it finished by last weekend...now i am unsure. I am gonna kick the guys back side that sold me the clutch kit. Mad Razz

you're right the actual conversion only took me a week Smile its not that amazing really it like just replacing an engine.

however I have been collecting and sourcing all the parts etc for a couple of months now. and did a lot of research on 3SGTE conversions, and taking tips on what to watch out for. it was quite fun and adventurous.

had some issues with running the ST184 gearbox and the 3SGE flywheel. that has been resolved by running the GT4 flywheel. had me scratching my head. but its all good now

well ...its in...it starts...it drives....

now its off to get the exhaust done and give it a service.
