Nothing much....Just needs the the O2 bungs welded in, the charging system hooked up (all the harness has been done) the fuel tank and system bolted back in, the shifter rod bolted up and the coolant system bolted up. And then its just a little cosmetic tidy up.... Nothing much really.... A good weekends worth of work and she's rolling..

Oh.... And it's registered too.... Forgot to mention that....

FUCH your early!

Yeah way too many projects and I don't really need the bus now.... The Forrester does a good job in that regard..... And the other three projects deserve my attention....

Not to mention all the other dub related (and non-dub) stuff I have going on.... Paul's Street/Drag bug and his 23 need some love, Matt's splitty suspension is coming up, Steve F wants me to do a new frontend for his SC and I have a few orders for my narrowed beams in the wait also..... Plus, plus, plus....

Just way too much to do!!!!

FUCH your early!

Got any pics of the Bus ?
Got any pics of teh exahust ?
I am guessing this is the loom that Col Played with ?
Have you had the EG running since the loom was done ? Have you had it running since the belt was done ?
5 Speed manual ? Any ideas on box condition ?
Rego with a stock engine ?

Why copy when you can own an original ?

Haven't had a chance to take any pics of the bus yet.
The zorst is the OG Subi manifolds turned 180º and adapted to a twin inlet 911 Muffler box.
Yes this it the loom that Col finished off for me.... I stripped it out, he checked it, and added the extra fuse block...
Not had it running since the loom was done (not actually done yet... Still have the charging system to finish).
Had it running in the front cut when the belt was changed.
Yes its a 5 speed.
Box was in good OG nick before the conversion.
And the rego is only with stock engine at the mo, but WA regs are ok with the conversion... There is no limitation on commercial vehicles and engine upgrades in WA.....

Though I have started a GTR Skyline front brake conversion for this bus along with a mock-up of a rear disc brake conversion.... Both of which will not go with the conversion.... But I can help the purchaser out in that regard if they would like...

FUCH your early!

Might add while I did help simon with the wiring, and it is pretty much now fully integrated into the wedge loom, cos we never got round to starting it, I never had a chance to satisfy myself it is 100% right.

I am 98% sure it will fire right up, but given it was the first and only svx I done, and they aint quite the same as an EJ22, I cannot guarantee it wont have an error code pop up for some weird reason or another... I am sure you know the drill Brad...

This thing really is painfully close to running...a weekend in a workshop is all it needs.

Simon, you didn't mention what Ks were on the engine, I can remember...

I was told 60K at time of purchase, but can not confirm this due to the speedo being not in the front cut at the time of purchase.... But on inspection of the engine, I feel that this would be pretty close... The engine is very clean and oil drip free.... Thou it is a little dusty at the mo!😂
