All engines will be trouble if u dont put oils inside..... hehe
That's not the trouble I meant. I decided not to convert to GTE because I was not happy with the gearbox issue. I'm definately not a richman but I think I still have enough money to buy engine oil la, bro.
I was thinking, if I get myself a MR2 g/box to mate with the GTE, frankly, I've to cough up more $$. Secondly, the GZE drive shafts are rather difficult to get these days. If I use my present GE g/box, the clutch plate's only 8.5" with no LSD. Should I decide to upgrade later down the road, don't think that's gonna hold.
I was down in KL on Thursday to check out a ST185 halfcut but the condition was not what I expected it to be. My friend then brought me around Segambut. Kepong, Subang, Kota Kamuning & Sunway chop shops but none of then had a GTE halfcut. Well, the shop in Sunway actually has 2 units of MR2 tail cuts; 1 turbo & 1 NA but no Celica. So don't wanna go home empty handed, just a bought a used Momo Race steering for my wife's car lor. Came home disappointed & decided to forget about the whole idea.
Then on Friday evening, a call came in informing that there's a BEAMS halfcut in KL. So went down again, yesterday & bought it
. Actually, the BEAMS halfcut's more expensive than the GTE halfcut I wanted to buy. :hmmmm:So maybe now I'll have to borrow money from Ah Long to buy engine oil, huh...
Will post up the pix when it's done.
