Nice Wagon mate! I'm doing a 26 at the moment and that centre console is exactly what i need. :) Keep it up, gonna be sweet when your done.

sluggish as f*&k. I gave her a good pasting and it's got better but i think i'm too used to my v8's :)

"It would be revving at around 4000 rpm. Need a K50 gearbox from a KE55 so the shifter is in the right position. Pretty hard to find in good condition. Would be worth it though to save on fuel, bruce" Quote. Spot on, and yeah it's using way more fuel than it should, carby's not tuned properley though.

yeah, it'll still be a daily. Not just for the strip. Here's some more pics.

Definately :)

Definately want a 5 speed for now cause 80 percent of my driving is to and from work down a 100 kph highway, revving way too hard at the moment.

Cheers for the replies guy's. Yeah been thinking about it and i don't wanna end off over some cliff cause there's too much weight in the nose (v6). So No go there. Starfire was because i've got it lying around. I was thinking of it because it 1: It pushes a vh commodore alright. 2: It's an easy conversion, Three wires and fuel line to run. 3:It's Cheap to replace when (yes when, not if) it breaks. ha ha IF i went the starfire i'd definately turbo it thoough. Thanks for the replies though.:)

yeah probably cause it's near stainforth court! ha ha

Hey, thanks for the replies. Yeah we found it today, near the newtown hockeyfields. Must have been a couple of young kids because they left som sunglasses and scissors and stuff in there. The cops printed it all, just wish we had of found them first! They must've give it a good hiding though cause the uni joints are stuffed and the diff clunks like its being dropped on the ground. Anyway, found now so it's all good. :)

HEy all, thanks for the replies. Yeah i was gonna go the v6 cause i had it lying around and the whole corners thing doesn't worry me much. It's got cart springs anyhow. :) Thats why i also thought of the turbo 4. I'd probably rather stick to something n/a as well so i was thinking about a 2 litre or something. Cheers.

Red TF Gemini, black stodgies. spots of grey primer. stolen from north hobart today :) . If anyone has seen it or knows where it is please let me know.

Yeah it did cross my mind but after reading the threads about them it put me off, not enough gain. I want something quick to have a bit of fun in, being in tassie too it doesn't really matter if i get it engineered cause the cops are pretty lenient and i've never seen anyone get a defect down here let alone even come close. I suppose i'm too used to my v8's1 haha.

Hi all, i'm new to the site and just wanted to share my new project. I recently bought a Ke26 wagon with a 5k 4 speed. I got it as a daily but seeing how small it is and how little it weighs, i'm thinking of a good motor for it for the quarter mile. I,ve got a Buick 3.8 5 speed, or a starfire 4, Aussie 4 speed . i can get either for nothing and would turbo the starfire if that was chosen. Just wondered what you guys reckon? Cheers :)

Hey yeah i bought that ke26 wagon last week, not bad pretty straight.
