u hitting him up to do diff while hes got it?

cheers guys, is starting to look like again again,

escortdriver - enigne bay is smoothed and painted just haven't got any good pics of it and as for the rocker cover i have no idea wether to go the same blue as the car or go the same blue as bov, wastegate and silicone pipe dunno yet.

Juiceman- yer you wont be disapointed with anythin that he makes, he is a top bloke and wicked fabricator

3scort- paint is original "deep aqua blue" nothin to fancy, and be looking at inbetween 350-450rwhp

Matt- nar i will take the old diff out and send it down to him and his just gonna match the brackets

thanx for the kind comments guys glad use like it, comes back 2morrow arvo so ill get some pics of it in the sun and pics of the engine bay looks much better.

Fantastic to see another fellow FJ powered Esky. Just wondering if your struggling for clearance to fit a radiator fan. I have about 2mm clearance after installing twin 10's

thanx, yer ive only seen 1 or 2 esorts with an fj in them and one of them is yours.
i believe i have inbetween 75-80mm to fit a thermo but i haven't got one as of yet, i got the main pulley machined down so that it is know just a one belt pully because that was where the clearence issue was.

cheers Dayne

nar its all good i dont mind its no big secret, Its a gt3071r .70 front trim .82/84 rear hosuings.
Seamed to be the turbo to go as alot of people run them on on FJ's.

as for engine mods i have no idea what iam doin yet but bottom end will most likely be spool rods with either Arias or JE pistons and might do some head work.
if i leave it standard i will be looking for 350+ rwhp
or worked ill be looking for 450ish rwhp both on 20psi

i will post up power figures etc when its all done but be a little while yet, let us know how yours goes.

cheers

thanks for that, ive got nothing special myself just a new t3 high mount, cooler, exhaust,and fitting my microtech next week, thanks for the help

Nice car! I have a pretty much bog standard FJ with the T3 and forged pistons in mine. EMS stinger ECU also. I want to get the T3 high flowed which should get me an extra 50hp ATW to total 250RWHP.
Can I ask what gearbox you are running, any mods to it?

Cheers

Paul
