Re: Toyota GLi6
Gary, do searches and read up on "7M conversions" ... pro's, cons, problems encountered and costs. It's been widely covered. 
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Re: Toyota GLi6
The 2L Gli 6 motor has the honour of being one of, if not the worst engine ever made by Toyota.
Producing in the order of 72Kw with the fuel consumption of a 3L V6, I don't think it is worth the trouble and effort.
Rather just go and bang your head against a wall it is going to have the same effect it is just going to be a lot cheaper.

Re: Toyota GLi6
I will buy the Cressida for R7500.00. Just let me know if its auto or manual.Then you can buy a nice 4.0 v8 Lexus with the money.Predator wrote:My uncle has an old Toyota GLi6 auto, it is in good condition 70% but the motor is 100% a 1984 with 170,000 kilos, I want to buy it and take out the motor and fit to a shell of say an old shape Hilux with a shot motor, question is, is this viable, it will be used to work on a farm or two, not city stuff, or will the thought be worth to much trouble?
Maybe just sell it and buy a bakkie and do it up? but those cars are not much worth, maybe R9000 tops. The mechanics are excellent.
