Failed wiring


short video of the car only in the morning don't want to get stranded at night time and my back up adventure is always ready to pull it home just in case something happen.

Guys just an update sorry to say the shop that I went to is another failure. Just a quick information on what happen, what they did is trace the old wiring that was in the car instead of cutting it all and making a new one, as of now the the only thing working is head light, park light, horn and A/C, dash gauge went dead nothing works temp, gas, light indicators and warning light on gauge. when I first drove the car the only thing that is working was the temp but after a day of driving it stop working. wiring was also poorly done for 14,000 pesos they did not even bother to put wiring cover to cover the wire up instead it was just a electrical tape. you might ask why you did not bring it back etc. due to short vacation I try to enjoy my self but I assure you that this shop is a Fail sad to say review on facebook was good that is why don't get trick by it. Also because I was so pissed of I did not even bother to take photo or video of it. until next time also shout out to the guy with the motorcycle who pulled me over and complement on my car sorry bro I forgot your name.

A/C Compressor


Replacing the A/C Compressor due to the other one is leaking already. Also replace the bracket with the adjustable tension bearing so that it will be easy to adjust the belt correctly. The old one that was in the car was already hack and kinda hard to align the belt when ever you tighten it.

 When both vehicle gives you a hard time they both broke down on the road while you are traveling at night, that's why we have to wait till morning for parts store to open and this is how it look in the morning. Mitsubishi adventure with a broken alternator and my corolla with broken driveshaft cross joint.

Engines

Engine for our beloved KE's, TE's and AE's. Now a days people want a gas saving car what kind of engine would you think best suit our beloved old school cars to be reliable, gas saver and up to date. I heard of the K3-VE and 3SZ-VE engine but never really seen a picture of a swap but the good thing about it is that it's already set up as a rear wheel drive, some people are trying 1nz-fe but they said to much conversion and money to spend, I also saw a picture of 2zz sitting rwd on a car with ITB and some are just staying with the 4age set up.
