I would suggest to find its original chrome shifter box. It will not look out of place.

[capsat]

yes please there is plenty of stuff under "search glass" by owner.
Right now she is ready in terms of engine mounts, exhaust system, drive shaft alignment with transmission, airbox & radiator. Brake system is upgraded. She will be with Afzaal for suspension job.

electrical work & ECU configuration task is pending.

This is not my vehicle. Owner is not known to me, neither by name or in person.

Jamil Autos - Irshad desired my input so am only overseeing it as learning project.

Uff! yeh cheez. Khali input is not enough! Tell him you will keep it for a week and then revert with a complete review.

Where's the car located?

[capsat]

in Karachi

Sir I saw Jamil Ustad arranging parts for it from shershah... I was curious about the braking ability of the car once swap is done.

[syncview]

we are installing a parachute based emergency braking system

[Xulfiqar]

best kind of brakes.

[drazahussain]

Haha.. Always liked that, saw a F7 landing at samungli many years ago.. I always used to think are they recyclable or disposable

[rajaatta]

Zulm without strenghtning this little chassis and brakes are of that old style too drums of these old models dont stop these vehicles.
Even croen of ms55 or MS 65 era cant handle this amount of new gen torque so better be safe then sorry

Whos Dealing The Fabrication Work?

[omersiddiqui5482]

Fabrication is done quite neatly... I have seen idiots basically botching the mounts up so there is no space to space the oil filter... But this is quite nice..

Sir, If you meet the owner ask him to go for disk brakes all-round.. Cressida drum brakes will just not work now...

[capsat]

Nadeem did the fabrication for mounts & exhaust.
brake (as in rotor clipper / rear drums) system from a HilUx Truck is in place.
Suspension will be Afzaals' task.

[drazahussain]

Boss for my general knowledge here as I have a question.. How hard is to make abs work in these models.. If we get full parts from shershah from a Japanese corolla etc

[Xulfiqar]

Wont be too difficult if you know how to make it work. Ustaad shops cannot.

You need some interesting taps into the engine ecu too. Thats secondary, first you need to get the hydraulics in place and make them function as it is.

That doesnt mean you start shoving corolla parts as they wont fit in the small spaces provided in these cars.

[capsat]

How hard is to make abs work in these models

2JZ ECU have abs input the issue is not of connectivity. Any skilled electrician can make it work. The owner located 4 complete rotors abs device, wheel sensors wiring & fluid tubing from a salvaged mark-x and in price negotiation with yard guy. If yard guy can provide a differential which he is looking for the owner may strike a deal.

Dang.... now thats a neat swap...
