who remembers icq when it was in single message format, not continuous messages liks msn is now? and you were limited to 450 characters :P

no, he's a dirty silvia driver :P

efi certainly would make tuning your fuel delivery alot easier, not to mention giving the thing a buttload more torque, smoothness and driveability down low. i reckon it would go well :P

i love this pic :D it's an unmodified screencap from drift king keichii tsychiya's best motoring international drift bible sprinter smackdown :P

animals rock

no censored :P

haha ricer fag

CHOMP!

DOMO KUN!!!

i hate kids

the wronger the better

omg i could post until my eyes bleed

to fit sidedrafts you use a sidedraft manifold, to fit SUs you use an SU manifold :P lynx manifold M117 is what i have

no fan? at all?

good piping for an intercooler too. what crank pulley did you use?

it does look good :D nice work :P

wow, that's really cool :P how hard is it to get the dash in and out of the car? it looks like there's screws you'd need the windscreen out to get to how did you go about removing all the black covering from the pad? or was yours already like that?

piece of shit stock carby won't rev past 8500 on mine :P cafee's ke30 has a 4k, very similar to mine and teddy's, with a pretty well modded aisan. his throttle cable stuck down, so he braked and it's pushing the locked front wheels down the street, so he clutched in and his monster tach hit 10.5 :D people said it sounded like a motorbike accident

i have that book somewhere. i was looking for it earlier on in this thread, but it's in a safe place, even i can't find it :D edit: found it :P i also have a program on my garage page called jetting.exe which you put in your engine and rpm and it gives you a very accurate base tune for twin sidedrafts. 1496cc at 7500rpm it reckons 36mm chokes and 145 fuel jets for max power, 34mm chokes and 140 fuel jets for max flexibility. gives full emulsion tube and air jet and idle jet and idle air specs too see here: http://www.superjamie.net/garage/

cheap parts, much better :P 1360cc my bad :D rob, did you have to re-choke those dellortos you got off me? they were originally on a alfa 105 gtv, 2 litre ps: i'm chasing some cheap SUs from a 5k for you, the dude's getting back to me

yes, the block is 10mm higher at the deck. this means if your exhaust is less than a finger width away from the floorpan with a 3k, it will probably hit the floor with a 4k/5k/7k. most exhausts have enough clearance and can take up the slack

go into any decent tuning shop and get a little facet fuel pump and an adjustable dial pressure regulator. you should walk away no more than $150 lighter it's said that with dual sidedrafts, you can see the fuel gauge going down :P maybe on a rotary, but i wouldn't be expecting any better than 8L/100km at least. christ, even a downdraft weber can be worse than that if you want it to be i'm going out on a limb here - forget sidedrafts. i had a pair of dellortos, and i found them too expensive to bother with, so i gave them to rob, who spent $550 (?) reconditioning them. sure it's going to be a bit more expensive if you buy new carbs and new manifold, if you look for long enough you'll find some which require not much work, and a second hand manifold (i bought my twin sidedraft manifold for $120). you sound like you don't want to spend a heap of money but still want a decent setup with as little compromises as possible. like me :D learning about SUs the last couple of weeks, and having mine partially apart, made me think how the most simple solution (one needle, one jet, one adjustment nut) is often the best. i would go as far as to say the last 100 years of people fartassing around with venturii and air jets and emulsion tubes was a complete and utter waste of time and effort. george skinner had it right back in 1905 with the SU carb. with a downdraft/sidedraft you tune the car in using jets and tubes until you find two ideal points which your car lies between. an SU is totally "analog" in its tuning, you adjust the thickness of the needle to suit the car, so you can potentially obtain a near-perfect tune, moreso than you can with a carb that uses e-tubes i reckon, if you can find a pair of SUs on the cheap, you could buy a new manifold and still have them tuned and on the car for as much, or less, than a single dcoe your workshop sound like idiots, they run a car at ideal power AFR on its run in, then tune it back to stoich after it's run in. most workshops run a WAY rich run-in tune, and if an engine's pretty off its tits (like yours is) run it slightly rich on its' final tune. i've never seen a rich engine glaze rings, and i've seen a few built and tuned. mine runs rich as all buggery, and i've had the head off and the bores are spot on

toymods mentality: if it's got an F, it's shit 7afe would CHOP a 4age in a straight line. no doubt :P

oh, and fook, i have 2 bonnets here which you guys can just have. one's the original bonnet from your car (of course, the bonnet i sold you with it is much better), one's from lucky's ke55 no idea how to get them from there to here but anyway :P does the camry have roofracks? next time you do a goldcoast run in it, i could come up in the van

i think you'll find 0.6mm panel steel doesn't even worry a huge panel press like toyota would have. i don't know heaps about building cars, but i'd say it's a fair bet they don't re-make their tooling every 20 cars they make hey, they'd spend more time and money on workshop equipment than actual building of cars, and would soon go bust taiwanese panels aren't perfect because they're probably made from copies of a panel that was already 15-20 years old at the time, and for the same reason any cheap asian crap doesn't do what it should do, poor manufacturing process perpetuated by simple people who don't understand what they are doing and are working for 4 cents an hour
