  1. here are some Upright brackets for Starlet for sale on Yahoo http://page23.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/o146154470
  2. I have a pair of cut and shut engine mounts that upright the KE70 motor and early oil pump where the pick up pipe can be turned to suit the upright sump don't know if they will work for a KE10
  3. piston ring from a whipper sniper? what size bore?
  4. Being an 81 TE in the USA I take it you have electronic ignition with a coil igniter Before you tear the ignition apart what’s your fuel filter like? Does it miss under load or just randomly ? Once I had similar problem and replaced the coil with one from a Celica, from the same year/period that had electronic Ignition. Had to make sure that the outside of the coil has a good earth to the body (scrap a little paint off the side that would be under the clamp holding the coil) and the body to engine earth strap is in good nick. Other than that make sure the cable from the Dizzy to the Igniter is not damaged, as the signal used to trigger it, is a very small voltage and the slightest impedance in the connections will stuff it up
  5. Hello Ashley There was someone making these up to suit T series box using a volvo cylinder in place of the throw out and the front seal I will have a look back through my info and see if I can find anything.
  6. Hello All I am currently rebuilding a 3t motor and am trying to source some new lifters, Both repco and burson have no listing for lifters for 2t or 3t, is there a replacement option that can be used? Thanks in advance UPDATE Just done some Internet searching and found an answer to my own question 75 Series Toyota land cruiser 2H has the same lifter part number 13751-44030 for std size Now just to find some one who sell's them
  7. ford v6 capri front spring fit
  8. I have decided to get out of K powered Toyotas and concentrate on my other Toyota car I am going to part out the KE70 and it's JDM bits which I will list soon I am also going to sell my upright K parts and other K performance bits too.
  9. Action shot from security Camera, Hope to hear from Insurance Company today to see if I get it back for parts And look for a new project
  10. The KE70 was parked on the road in front of the hilux The getz crossed to the wrong side of the road and crashed head on into both of them. Very lucky no one was hurt
  11. sad end to my KE70 project Getz V's Corolla Getz =0 Corolla =0 HiLux 1
  12. Some of the people on the forum already run these motors in club cars ( gavclassic) and have better idea on performance gains The 7k motor block is a bit wider then the 5k you have and you will need to change / modifiy your engine mounts do some searching on people's builds and see what they have done
  13. Got one in my TE20, the same as a KE30 (Small booster Jap assembled car) But it also has a TE pedal box which moves the master up and away from the 2t intake manifold.
  14. What are you using the car for road or track?
  15. How much is a “little money” are you looking to spend? Are you going to pulling it out and change cam, new pistons some port work or just some bolt on bits to get a little more fun from it. Most 4k's suffer from restrictive air/fuel into the motor and exhaust out of the motor So a good cheap starting point would be a set of extractors with a 1 and 3/4 inch exhaust system (not good for a fully worked engine 2" would be better) A down draft Webber and decent air cleaner, and change the distributor to electronic one from a Liteace motor to give better spark and no more “points” problems The above list set me back $800 and my KE70’s rwhp from 41 to 62 (motor is also quite fresh only done 20,000km) I could get a lot more if I change the cam, have the head porting on both the intake & exhaust done, and I can still use the same weber and exhaust I have already invested in. But as the car is my daily I can’t do with it off the road for that long to get the motor out.
  16. Spend my weekends sideways seeking the truth

  17. you can get them from time to time on Import monster, I got mine from Trade Me in NZ, Do you have a 2tg or 3T with side drafts?
  18. you can buy the dash (safety pad) new from toyota still It's just that fitting them is a monster job as you have to pull almost all of the dash out to get to all the bolts and screws :doh:
  19. Nice little KE20, You may have better luck looking for TE21 or TE27 parts on the local market or 3TC garage for the suspension upgrade. If you fit the TE parts your steering arms will need to be changed to suit the front struts and the stud pattern will change to 114.3 by 4
  20. Did you have to swap the steering arm over to make the struts fit?
  21. To change the barrel you need to be able to turn the old one the Acc position are you able to do this? Then hardest part of the change is to get a bit of wire or small drill bit point and push the release button in the hole on the side of the barrel housing that faces you when sitting in the car, I use a scriber, and pulling out the old one Then you line the new barren up in the ACC spot and just slide it in, see this thread for picture http://www.rollaclub...ignitin-barrel/
  22. Hi Looking good, what did you use to strip back the engine bay?
  23. I have the cams homologation papers for my TE20. but they also cover the TE25 models up to 1972 Edit: Apologies my papers only cover the sprinter model not the corolla te27 Levin twin cam model
  24. I refer to it has the "need a new engine light". My oil pressure switch in the KE70 comes on at 5 psi, You may have something stuck in the relief valve of the pump holding it open, as it is unfiltered oil maybe some bearing material or dirt? I modified my oil pump, was a bit of stuffing about, but I put in the gears from a 18R motor and run a spacer the same as those in 2TG/18RG oil pumps to make the body longer, gave me 3mm wider gears and a sh#t load more oil volume. I have a brand new still in the Toyota box #k oil pump, was going to use it in the upright motor. PM me If you need
