HV's 82 D24 turbo built (without all the argument crap)
I made a new thread since HV's original got so filled with BS. My appologies to HV. I'm working at making sure people that don't contribute to the forum don't come back.

Well it may be a little disjointed, but a hell of alot easier to read since its not full of crap!

YO!
its been awhile since Ive posted... the wagon has been sitting in a field since Ive been pretty broke for the past 6 months or so.... but consequently; ill be moving to NC here in about a week, so I took it upon myself to recover the wagon and bring it back to my house... After driving it around the block... I notice that damn scraping noise I mentioned earlier... its the back of the timing belt guard... seems it heats up and warps; thus rubbing the cam gear, no matter, Ill just pull it off the engine next chance I get. I cut the old stack off and shortened it about 2" below the hood, welded a new stack to the hood so I can still open it. I then had to create some kind of funnel-type metal widget to go over the turbo pipe under the hood to direct the exhaust gasses out of the engine bay... after a test run- it seems the turbo pipe needs to be just a bit taller... ill just weld on some of the old pipe to make up the difference. I test-fit my skinny inter-cooler today as well, seems its PERFECT! no pics though... it was all done with my hand just to see how it would look and if there's even room for the piping, which there is. After looking at the car with the hood shut, I noticed it didn't have much..... color.  So I grabbed a can of metal-cast purple and coated the headlights, then used some metal-cast yellow and coated the headlight trim to make them look like brass. Since I already had the purple out 'favorite color' I painted the stack purple with some metal-flake while it was still drying...headlights didn't come out quite as I imagined... so ill probably take the paint off with some acetone after a few negative comments. lol, IMO they look.... kinda shitty, the can nozzle didn't quite coat them evenly. FML Also! ever heard of a tow-hook ornament? I had a trashed HX40 turbo sitting in the corner of my garage 'turbine broke off the shaft and destroyed the housing' so I pulled the compressor housing off and hooked it to the back. THIS I like As it sits now: the hook-ornament--\/      view inside the stack 'from the top' --\/  headlight closeup

Wow I'm really digging the exhaust on the toyota there... What d24 badges are you talking about? I've had some made that I put no the fender that look kinda like a cummins C. There isn't a factory badge that says d24 or d24t that I've ever seen, only "turbo diesel"
So whats the scoop? I thought the engine was over heating or pressurizing the coolant system?? Jason

Im referring to the badges YOU made, with the D24 that looks like the cummins C. My plans are to move to NC, pull the head, replace the HG, put in head studs, weld the differential. done

ya 35psi and a warped head will do it!
As for the custom "D24" decals, I've still got a couple I think. Two are reserved for Alex's car once he gets it painted. PM me your address and I'll mail you at least one or two if I have enough. Jason
