Yeah I enjoy doing write ups so I'll probably being doing a few here shortly. As for the mod, I'm still doing some research/figuring out what I want to do. Its broke right now so brakes in the rear are pretty much useless.
That's a really good deal on the radio, we have pepboys, so I'll swing by there!
As for the diff, I'd like a 4:10 open diff straight trade, but I you're serious, we could work something out, shipping is probably wicked on it though...

I'm glad that your back in the game. I enjoyed your last build.

Sorry guys, due to the promotion, I needed to sell the truck to get my toolbox and tools. Why do airplanes have to be SAE?!

But there is some good news, I sold it to my buddy, who has wanted it for awhile and already has a SAS in plan, bumpers will be fabbed up also, so at least it'll be better off.

Hopefully I'll be able to get it back after all the work is done, if not, I'll be back next time in a first gen!

Cheers!

WOW, ...... I'ma getta Complex, homie! hahahaha. JK... BEST WISHES TO YA, AZ! Keep putting what's important first, VERY impressed, actually... HARD to sacrifice a possession like that... But not for something like this, right?

KILL IT, MAN! lol.

AZkid

Yeah it's something I had to do, in forming a career at Honeywell aerospace, and I'm in need of a toolbox full of tools to do my new job. (super excited face)

I'll stop pop in time to time and lurk in the shadows as usual

AZkid

Hey, guess what, things went down with my buddy, he needed a car, I want another truck, so why not trade?

THIRD TIMES THE CHARM! Lol

Traded my 85 BMW 325 for the runner back, he ended up not getting around to any mods, so it's still on!

AZkid

Okay, well, I sold the yellow rabbit last weekend, do to things going south on that, I'm hiding the Jetta daily and going to daily to runner.
I guess I should learn to check engine codes, thought te yellow one was a 1.6, actually 1.5.


Small info on it.
1984 vw Jetta, I bought it from the ORGINIAL owner, and well, it's pretty minty except for a few small things.

Made some progress this past week or so, got a 85 celiac MAF and box, box was too big (wouldn't clear hood), so I'm going with a cone filter for now. Got the new battery mounted and secured, dual electric pusher fans up and running. Still doing the finishing touches. More to come shortly.

i need to a battery intake swap >.> one day....

AZkid

It looks way better in my opinion, I didn't really gain anything from it like the supra, but after building some other cars, simplicity was the game. So why not start here? Lol.

On a side not, the trucks maiden voyage was last night, had to go save my brothers mini. 83 2wd short bed, so I rolled out in the truck, wiring hanging everywhere, no fenders, no corner lights, zip ties grille.
And I get there;

AZkid

My brother bought these sliders three years ago, been sitting in the plastic until last week! 2 inch bj spacers installed, home allignment, 1200 turbo marlin crawler clutch, w56 and top case all installed. Now I have a 2nd case for duals!

AZkid

It's not perfect. But I like it.

Dude, how the heck are you?

What is that on the block? Freeze plug kablooies? Lol... Frozen rat hanging out of somewhere? I just cant tell. Looks like freeze plugs are higher, but center one, driver side is lower? Hmmmm , TELL ME! Haha

NICE WORK! Motor looks great, as does the bumper! Wow, u fabbed that up?

kornhuskerwizard

That would definetly cause some engine noise

AZkid

Hey chef,

Connecting rod went out the side on my brothers mini truck lol.

I didn't fab it, I more or less of, helped on the bumper. I helped bend, hold tube. Ect. Lol

AZkid

Well, apparently the 4runner doesn't like me. It currently sounds like a train.
Pulled the pan and there's metal in there. Hello rebuild...

Dayummmm! When it rains, ........ right? Sorry to hear.

I have a desire to do a built 3RZ or 1UZ,...... but this thing is purrin.... so maybe in 100k or so? Hahaha. U considered a swap?

AZkid

Yeah I've been watching some 3.4 swaps and stuff. But I think for the mean time ill keep it 22RE. I have a spare RE so I can rob parts and what not. But we shall see, I got work the next 3 days, then ill start digging into it and see what I can find.

AZkid

Okay digging on some flash drives I found a couple goodies. First picture was right after my brother got it. Second picture was shortly after that a couple weeks after paint. Dang she looked good!
