Hi Joe, Welcome to OzGemini. There nothing in Australia that simply bolts in and is readily available. Except perhaps the Altra 9, a custom diff centre.

Diesel cross member brings the engine forward approximately 50mm which clears the firewall but then causes a minor issue with the bonnet clearance toward the front of the engine (if running EFI) and fan clearance issues. If going with the diesel cross member you can use an auto tail shaft with a man...

Been a bit side tracked with a couple of other projects but should be able to get back into this again soon.

The Rodeo V6 gearbox will fit but as discussed above the tunnel needs to be eased.

Research Hyabusa V8 - 2.6 or 2.8 litre revs to something like 10,000 rpm.

Found on ebay a hotrod registered in Victoria using Gemini running gear including the front end with coilover shockies. The pictures don't show a lot of detail but shows it can be done.

Apply power to the injector and run a few times for short periods so they don't burn out. My ...

If it has been sitting for a while the injectors may have gummed up.

They look like they still have that curve that makes it harder to install remove . better than nothing i guess These were copied off the originals. I think the curved design is there to fit in around the reinforced section of the pillar. Anyone tried these yet for size, fitting or anything? I haven...

I haven't got mine yet, but as soon as I do I can let you know. They are new, remanufactered from the original so being new rubber they should be soft.
