Ooooo, now that would be right up my alley.
To complete the conversion, what sort of effort are we looking at?
- change to steering box mounting
- coil and shock monuts
etc, etc

Re: Project PAJ (Kermit)
Have also decided on a new colour scheme as the green is an eyesore.
Will model it after the EVO version as I've got plenty of 2k white from restoring the daughter's Mitsi and red from when I did the 80.

Re: Project PAJ (Kermit)
Well just before the Xmas shutdown I managed to secure a custom made (6mm) winch plate, 32mm NB medium wall pipe and some welded elbows so I can build the barwork over the break. Best prices for the pipe was from United Steel in Seaview. Have just tacked together the middle section today and will fi...

Re: Project PAJ (Kermit)
Slow going ....but a little bit of work. Started thinking about some barwork designs and so ripped off the front bar and extracted the winch. Thought I would rebuild it and oh my what a treat! Gearbox was as sloppy as the village girl and solenoid has been swimming for a while. Motor seems all good ...

Just a little bit of work this weekend.... Well took a lot of mucking around, but that's always the way with small jobs. Wanted to tap in the EGT probe so I could start playing around with the tuning. There seems to be a few 4d56T variants out there, taking about inserting the probe through the EGR ...

Re: Build thread gen 2 poverty pack
Very nice to see something a little different from the norm. Good to see another build thread also, I thought I just had no mates here 
What's the running gear you have?
Also that rear barwork is something very similar to what I would like to do. Any more pics of that?

Right, decided to tackle the wiring!! What a bloody birds nest! So annoying when people just twist the wires together and slap a bit of masking tape over it :shock: 2022-10-02 10.33.21.jpg I've pulled almost all of the dash out to trace all the wiring.

Re: Project PAJ (Kermit)
According to the gauge, it's currently running 8psi. In the Delica forums they say the standard turbo and engine will handle 17psi. That is a massive step up for standard. With the EGT, Boost and fuel I will just tweak it enough so it's running well with good temps. It doesn't need to be a dragster ...

Re: Project PAJ (Kermit)
Ah, correction to my initial post. It is the turbo engine.
Was reading about the harmonic balance delete. What is the real benefit?
From what I have read, just removing the balance belt, would:
a) possibly increase engine vibration
but
b) reduce resistance for the motor

More progress today....
Winch and wiring, barwork and UHF aerial
Good lord, it might just about be ready for a WoF.
Would like to put the side trim and roof basket back on to complete it though.
