Welcome to the forum, nice P6. interesting bonnet scoop :) I've got one as well but a bit more period correct. Its from our XY GT's with a number of modifications to make it fit correctly.

Does anyone have a current contact email address for Fosseway? I seem to have no response from the email provided on their website.

The fan is fitted and works perfectly, during this summer we have had 40+ degree days and the water temp has not climbed past 82 degrees.

lol... like a jet plane :-) ive heared a lot worse. I thinlk I'll have about 1mm clearance which is good enough for me... yeah its slightly overkill as an auxillery but at least it half ready for an electric water pump conversion and i love the sound of a large fan. I'll have to upgrade the...

I got the same fan, it fits perfecty, excellent write up, my fan unit is only as an auxillery not a main fan, I'm keeping the clutched fan for the moment, in the near future I'll intstall an electric water pump and controller. Here is my fans first test run set at the lowest level on the fan...

A small but important upgrade to the cooIing sysytem. I installed a Spal VA18-AP51-C41S 16" pusher fan and Davies Craig Digital fan controller.ling systen. Reading PeterZRH "my cooling project" was very informative and detailed, exactly what I needed. I took a slighly different approach with...

Last summer, even with a new 3 core radiator ran a little hot during the day but never ran into the red... I've just installed a the SPAL 16" Pusher fan along with a Davies Craig digital fan controller as a back up for the coming summer just to be safe.

Love the wheels, are they an off the shelf item or where they custom made?

I'm thinking of doing a similar installation, how do you find the SPAL fan? is it annoying loud when its on?

Fuel system upgrade is next on the list of things to do, on long full throttle acceleration it would run out fuel at the carbs, I have decided to uprade the electric fuel pump to a "Facet Fuel Pump 6.5-7.5psi 45gph Red Top" and install a Holley 1-4psi fuel pressure regulator and guage.

Thanks Guys, Its been a long road, time is very limited at the moment. After i installed everything i went over it all to check clearance and pedal pressure and found a a couple of issues, firstly the supplied bearing carrier was far to shrort, i had it replaced with a longer unit. Secondly...

The seats are back in along with the centre console, I'm very happy with the result :D

Hi Mark, Being from Australia, the only place I could source a carpet set was from All Car Capets, excellent service and product but i think their templates are a little out, most sections did not fit properly and it required a fair amount of trimming etc.

Whislt waiting of more parts to arrive, I decided to install a carpet set I purchased a while ago, the fitment is passable. If i had to do it again, I would probably have a carpet set sent over form England, our local ones are not the best fit. Some sections turned out perfert whislst other did...

Thanks mate, it nearly ready for the road, just waiting for a few bits and pieces to complete the the conversion. Its been a long time coming, just hard to find time these days.

I bit more work competed today, installed the new one piece tailshaft, dustcover, clutch slave cyliner and the front exhaust section. The flywheel cover is the auto gearbox part just new holes drilled to attach it to the bellhousing. The slave cylinder sits perfectly, dellow allow for...

With the Dellow conversion kit, the bellowing needs to be modified. The starter motor recess has to be trimmed to clear the bulkhead, its a simple fix mark, cut and seal. I sealed the cut out with a small piece of 1.5mm aluminium then glued it to the housing with a product called JB weld...

The transmission tunnel required some modification, the driverside auto gearbox mount had to me removed to allow the remote shifter to fit and the passenger side mount had to be trimmed about 10mm. The gearbox tunnel where the new gearbox mount is situated has had an additional 2mm plate welded...

Re: Supra 5 speed I didn't end up buying the T5 bellhousing, I got the supra bellhosing instead from Dellow.

The last of engine bay mods were the exhaust manifolds. Originally I simply heat wrapped the manifolds but ended up ceramic coating the manifolds which seemed fine at idle, hopefully I wont end up having to heat wrap them again if the ceramic coating doesn't work as good as I expect.

The first job was to source the pedal box. Being an automatic V8 I had to overcome the first hurdle of finding a 3500S pedal box and parts, at the time here in Australia they are virtually non existent. Luckily a fellow forum member had a spare 4cyl pedal box which he kindly sent to me. Reading...

Betty has been up on ramps for the last couple of months now, trial fitting the Toyota 5 speed gearbox. Its been a long and slow process with a few headaches along the way. but we're almost there. Its not an easy conversion but I'm sure it will be fun to drive. the list of parts and things to...

Re: Supra 5 speed Just an update... the conversion to a 5 speed has changed from a Borg Warner to a Supra 5 speed.

Not sure mate but I've been told that the last batch of CKD cars shipped over to NZ were the 150 with VIN's between 45330711 to 45330860.

Mine is 45330853E from what I've been told 45330860E was the last one dispatched from NZ
