Well today was a very successful day! Sold the Delica in the morning to an awesome new owner who is going to be road-tripping it all the way to California (after I do some engine mods). Then, we got the 1UZ mounted in the drift truck!

Next step is to pull it out, put the CD009 on it and make that fit!

Need a Ford grille and ranger badges 😂

This thing looks stunning. It almost seems like you won't need to cut the hood to fit the supercharger.

Evan Kirschenmann

All black was definitely the right idea for this car

Gingium

Yeah it’s going to be super close!

Evan Kirschenmann

Worst case, I think you'll be able to take away some of the structural support of the hood to fit it

Nice quick sale on the Delica. The Ford badge on the blower is funny. Ford parts on a Lexus engine next to Nissan suspension in a Mazda truck which was also sold rebadged as a Ford truck. It's come full circle!

Watching this build has been a dream come true, I have a 78 Toyota Hilux with a 1UZ ready to drop in, life’s been in the way for a while but this build series has allowed me to live out the dream in some way

Fantastic work dude, you gotta be proud. We can't wait for this thing to make clouds of smoke when it's done. I know you mentioned this in one of your videos but since I can't remember - what's the plan for a wider body? Simple fender flairs or like full on custom fabricated wide fender panels?

Gingium

Yeah. I don’t really know any other way to do it 😂

Gingium

Yeah it’s the ultimate Frankenstein truck!

Gingium

Hilux with a 1uz sounds rad! Glad I could help that dream in some small way. I’m sure you’ll get it done yourself eventually!

Gingium

Thank you dude! And I honestly don’t know yet. Simple flares with definitely be the beginning solution though.

That motor looks like it belongs in there and there's plenty of room to access 98% of everything, I'll be waiting for the day some mad lad mods this into Assetto Corsa

Evan Kirschenmann

That sounds like best case to me, not worst case. LOL

ski

when's the video dropping?

Gingium

Still working on it. I’ll have it done asap!
