Yes indeed I did so. I actually posses the requisite Mechanical Engineering expertise and Certifications to conduct very many challenging Mechanical works/ endeavours.

This land Rover Defender conversions was a personal project and I had not intended to sell it. I have been driving it with the conversions getting to 3yrs now and I have taken it on very long distance drives on many occasions from Lagos to the East and back.

Just good maintenance practices like any other vehicle keeps it happy; regular changes of Engine Oil & Filter and Automatic Transmission Oil & Filter.

But like every other thing in life, problems are inevitable but are always surmountable.

How did you go about engine mounts & transmission shaft matching? ECU & wiring solution?
I would love to see a thread.

I have found what I was searching for.

Thanks to everyone that tried to assist me with the search, I truly appreciate your efforts.
Were you planning on doing an injector pump swap?
I would very much like to see a thread on your project.
Car Talk / Re: Fitting The 5.0l V8 From The Lexus ISF In A '05 Corolla Or '09 Camry by DaimlerBen(m): 3:48pm On Mar 05
ivoryhouse:

I just love the shape of the 2007 to 2010 camry. We have fitted a range rover v8 in a land rover defender, fitted a tacoma v6 in a land rover defender, and a tundra v8 in a land rover defender. Will be trying more swaps in the coming months. I may create a thread for defender swaps when i have the time. I haven't been on nairaland in years so pardon my silence
I would LOVE to know how you managed with wiring those "hybrids".

The way I see it, you have 2 choices:
a) Drop the camry body on to an IS or GS chassis, hoping wheelbase & track dimensions fit.

b) Drop a Volvo V8 & subframe into the camry since it's transverse.

You're just living the dream.
Please keep us posted.

Good day house.

Please, what's the name of a kinda-cruiser-like honda/yamaha/suzuki bike with dual exhausts (left & right), quite popular in Nigeria in the 90s (when I started noticing them)?
A picture would also be nice so I could confirm.
Thanks.

Sorry for the diversion.

We shouldn't joke about the crippled.

Car Talk / Re: 2013 Kia Rio Engine Swap/conversion by DaimlerBen(m): 1:57pm On Sep 06, 2021
ivoryhouse:

The swap can work, if skilled technicians handle it. Do your research. They said we couldn't swap a range rover p38 4.0l v8 in a defender (I'll create the thread soon �) . But we not only did it, we swapped in parts from different cars so the defender drives like a new car and has crazy acceleration. You need a very good electrical guy, not just a rewire.
Sorry to go back, but is there a thread now?

Tight fit, but wheel is clear without touching any suspension components or wheel arch
Bross, I still feel you missed out on the monoblocks. Nice looks though.
Did you replace the catalyst or left as is? Any plans for a new exhaust?

The Most engineered Mercedes classics of our time..

It was the last of the true Benz designed by Bruno Sacco.
Benz was bought by Chrysler afterwards.
These cars keep giving and giving some have cocked 1million Miles ...
I have two that are 37 and 35 years old .The others are 29 and 23 years old .
Nice collection.
By the way it was a merger between Mercedes & Chrysler, with Benz having a greater share of the deal.
