Indeed brother,its been a while.I saw u the other day on the gawalmandi bridge wearing your signature SAS beanie.You on the other hand looked at me completlty blankly. It was probably bcuz I was in a terios kid and doing revolver impressions with me hands.haha

LOL @Sameer and Salarzae

Yep it was me who said it

The manifold turned out to be a gem compared the fussing we had to do on for axles and centershaft. The new motor obviously has a bigger centershaft albeit a different mounting bracket and a slimmer bearing. This left hardly any freeplay in the right axle when we mounted it. so it had to be shortened and re-grooved.

The axles. The one at the top is from the J18 while the one at the bottom is from the M13.

We managed the four mounts. Looking good and a snug fit allround.

Front

Rear mount.

Also got the shift linkages and the slave cylinder mounted. Bewdy!

what heppened to the air intake problem?

[FLi_GTi]

I'm uploading the pictures in a few minutes. We inverted the throttle body to face the other way. The throttle linkage is in a weird postion but overall looks okay and we're pretty much set for forced induction too.
This is how we started.
Seperated the surge tank from the runners.

Inverted the throttlebody! Welding patchup.

FINALLY!!sumthing different from the usual grocery fetchers, 4AGE and B16!!

Good luck @Fli_gti!(Y)

[FLi_GTi]

This is what the runner looked like when we began.

How close it was to the master cylinder

how it sits in the engine bay now.

[FLi_GTi]

The new pipework to keep the things cool under the hood!

[incognito59]

awesome i have a similar Liana i am tempted to go for the change! How is it costing you FLI GTI? Is it being done in Lahore? If yes where is the workshop located?

[FLi_GTi]

The motor alone cost over 50K (complete). You're looking at over 70K for a complete swap!

[incognito59]

thanks fli gti and where is the workshop located? was the engine bought from Bilal Gunj?

[FLi_GTi]

Nope its a direct jap import. Two J18As and a 2ZZ-GE

[FLi_GTi]

The 2ZZ for the cynics

[spectra]

So shireen khan came to the rescue

nice proceddings. Best of luck with the final thing

[aref]
