ok well here is the thing, i cranked my 4k in a ke20 today and it was purring nicely i then gave it a cool down an hour or so later i started it again and when i revved it it would lose its .. power i guess, it sounded like it was coughing and would then die. it happened repeatedly, now my ? is, it had a 3k 2 speed and now has a warm 4k 4 speed, the petrol line and filter ect is the same and so is the carby, before i put the 4k in the 3k was super sluggly .. sluggier than usual and i put it down to the motor, box or diff but now everything has changed it still doesnt want to revv. so is it the carb ? and if it is is a 3k and 4k carb the same or not, and if it sounds like the carb would it be worth getting some webbers ? thanks and all input is muchly appreciated btw: it idols very nicely, but the owner said it has had some cam work so its abit lumpy

nice pickup

its a 4wd, problem solved

love the car

nicee

so not much has been happening, its been a while and since then i have put engine and box in, after some cleaning with the pressure washer i saw the new engine is a 4k and not a 3 as the guy told me, so in a way its a score, all looks to be in good cond and most things replaced, the clutch is also pretty new so yeah. now the engine and box is all in ive been tydying it all up, wiring all redone in tape, things being re painted and a start of the motor will be coming soon, i did the pedal box changeover, but not the whole setup just the clutch and break pedal, can anyone help me with an idea or pics to show a custom clutch stopper, as the original box in car is auto but i got manual box stuff put on. so yeah all that is needed to be done is new pipes from radiator to engine and work out abit more wiring from thermo fan and put clutch cable through and 1st start is a go :)

awsome build

sweet ride

those wheels look awsome man always loved the superlite watanabie look top build

wow a 4 door rare as nice

top gear australia is a poor excuse for topgear its so unintertaining and shit, not to mention the cars they do :bash:

hey just wondering why did you go with a black bay and not the blue ?

haha awsome little car tooks really tough with the superlites, minus the fender mirrors and its awsome

good luck with the build, looks like you have a good amount of work on your hands

a massive drum of petrol in the back :y:

ahh I'm not to sure how serious is it ? if its like a touchup here and there to clean her up should be ok, but if its a big resto like mine i don't think he will be keen as he wants out by next winter

well the bay is now all painted, its in a acrylic but put some hardener for a 2pac finish, the white i got was a bit green at 1st look and compared to the car and the interior white its quite off, but it is original toyota colour the white 007, anyway here is some pics of the car being prepped (ps. i hate masking up) all there is to do is re mask and paint the steering rack and sway bar in primer in white and a lil comparison photo and a bob tailed lizard came to help today

well stuffs been happening engine is out :) been rubbing the bay down so ready for a respray, just been cleaning stuff up polishing degreasing stuff like engine and bay so yeah enjoy so yeah the bay is in primer now but it was dark and camera was out of battery but now everything is at a standstill i got exams i should be studying for but meh
