Yes sure it's this one

They pop up on eBay used sometimes I got mine for £120
It can be locked too to lift the car and not just tilt it

It's very stable when tilted as the weight is on the wheels on the floor however It is still stable when locked horizontal but can rock ever so slightly but I put an axle stand either end to be sure .
Hope that helps

Good stuff Matt, really can't go too far with rust protection!
What engine is going in this? Rev3 turbo?

- thanks it does - I did have concerns about how stable it would be - I need to keep an eye on ebay - I cannot warrant the price of one new but I may get lucky with someone selling one on. Thanks again

It's a forged rev 2 with rev3 conversion so effectively a rev 3 turbo
Quick spec
Cylinder head from Roy ashbys wheelie popping drag car was running 700bhp+ , HKs cams , Hks valve springs , hks cam gears , rev3 shim under bucket conversion and lots of flow work
Rev 3 conversion
Wossner forged pistons Std bore size
Eagle rods
Hks fine tuning timing belt
Flowed inlet manifold
Etc
Running a ct20b till I'm happy everything's running ok then time for more boost
For later
Sard 850 injectors
Garret gt3076 (needs rebuild)
Get an programable ecu
There's probably things I've forgotten from the list

What have you chosen to protect the underside and box cavities with rust protection?
Ive been reading old car restoration mags and both Dinitrol and waxoil came up. Im leaning towards dinitrol as its less messy, drys clear and easier to inject into the drainage holes etc.
Is there any other rust protection thats better or easier to use?

I'm doing the underside with waxoyl I had some from a previous project
I'll try to get it in the box cavities but if I can't I'll get something else
You can get clear waxoyl too

I've used both before, Dinitrol is vastly, vastly superior.. waxoyl dries out and cracks making it a lovely water trap for rust to start... I wouldn't consider buying a car that had been waxoyled now
Re: 1994 rev3 TRD Widebody turbo build
Wow not updated in a while
I was hoping to get the engine and gearbox in today but I've been sent the wrong clutch plate so can't continue
I'm really getting fed up with it now
Very small update as the engine Is delayed
Chargecooler core fitted
Some things are back from powder coating
Heat shields
Rear bumper bar supports
Subframe
Trd strut brace

Re: 1994 rev3 TRD Widebody turbo build
Update
Fitted sbits shift cable bearings (wish I'd fitted the bearings to the cables while the engine was out )
Connected most things up hoses /electrics I'm just missing a few things
Fitted an arc airbox
Fitted rh driveshaft (I'm going to paint it )
I've also made a bracket up for the cc pump as it didn't have one I used a spare fuel filter bracket and made some brackets to suit I wanted it mounted similarly to gt4 pump location .
Pump in fuel filter bracket I wrapped the pump with a little foam so the bracket doesn't damage the pump
Bracket mk1
Pump fitted with mk1 bracket
I wasn't happy with how low the pump was so back to the workbench
Brackets mk2
Fitted (not the best pic I need to get another )
Loads better
That's it for the min

Re: 1994 rev3 TRD Widebody turbo build
Update
The turbo engine loom had a dastek unichip wired in and it was a mess so I started by removing the unichip as I wasn't sure what it was mapped for and didn't want it to damage anything if it was not right for my car .
This is what I was leaved with the loom with a couple of wires that need joining
I have never soldered any wires before but thought I'd give it a try so went to maplin and bought a solder station with some solder and heatsrink, I practiced on some spare wires I had the then had a go .I'm happy with the joins (they aren't the tidiest joins but do the job )I then taped up the loom to tidy it up I'm really pleased how it looks
I also moved the alarm siren from the engine bay to the boot
I fed the wire back in the cabin then through the rear quarter I also feed a extra string through at the same time and tied it up so if I ever need to feed anymore wires I have a pull cord
I fitted a trd rad cap
My suction pump turned up today so I filled the gearbox with oil
I also filled the engine with oil

Re: 1994 rev3 TRD Widebody turbo build
Coming along very nicely there matt. I moved my alarm siren from the engine bay too, as it got ruined due to water/dampness.
