Helping a Club Member fix his SFA.

Post by DerikB »

Today I want to ask for assistance for a fellow Club Member and friend.

Bit of background - Johan (Monsterlux) was retrenched in the beginning of this year and has been unable to find another job in his line of work (Mechanical Draughtsman). Currently he is doing semi-skilled labour to keep a roof over his head and food on the table.

Johan is a guy who is always more than willing to lend a hand and never expects anything in return - just look at my threads about the DIY Roofrack, he was right there drilling and riveting on the photos. If you go and take a look under his posts you will quickly see what I mean.

Things are not looking up and that’s why I decided to start this thread.

His pride and joy is a 1992 SFA Hilux with a 22R engine. Unfortunately it has not run since February.
He was busy doing an EFI conversion on it. Imported an EFI Intake and then sold off the old Intake/Carb to raise money for the other parts. Then the bad luck struck and he was without work thus no money to continue.

What I hope to achieve with this thread is being able to raise the parts to take his Hilux back to stock and get it on the road again. I am sure it will put a smile back onto his face and lift his spirit.

The parts we require, for a Toyota 22R engine:
Intake Manifold
Carburettor
Exhaust pipe – Least of my worries, but his is also rotten in places.

If there is anyone who can help us with one of the parts above, I would appreciate it enormously! Even if you are unable to donate it, send me a price so I can make a plan. If you are in JHB/PTA or Witbank/Middelburg I should be able to collect.
Between the two of us the labour will be no problem.

Thank you!
Derik

Eish, sterkte aan Johan, en dis blerrie nice om te sien jy probeer help. Hoop julle kom reg met die benodigde parte. Partykeer het mens net so bietjie "goodwill" nodig om weer lig aan die einde van die tonnel te sien, en jou plan is dalk net die regte ding. Sterkte!

Hallo Derik.

Ek kan op 'n sekere manier help. Ek soek nog vir die Efi manifold oorsee. As hy syne wil verkoop teen 'n prys aan my kan ek die ander person vra dat ek die carb en intake dan hou en dan vir hom gee as ek die Efi begin.


Pm my.

Baie dankie vir die aanbod Wimpie. Ons het nog nie reggekom met die parte nie, maar ek kan nie verwag dat jy n volledige engine opbreek nie.

Ons het sover 'n hele paar leads gehad (Dankie Oom Boet) en ook 2 plekke waarheen Johan sy CV gestuur het, so ons hou nog duime vas!
