    It goes great so much toque for a k motor haha I recently got the exhaust done so now has a nice 2" system with a high flow resi and muffler absolutely loving the sound of it it's making a great daily next on the list is some 4.1 diff gears to liven her up a little more I'm hoping to get them in before the weekend as I'm hitting the 1/4 on Sunday for abit of fun! I replaced the whole front end with rt132 corona struts short stroke shocks, springs, brakes and lcas and a pajero master cylinder so she stops and turns now

    She's now 7k powered! I also had some genuine Toyota foggies kicking round in the shed so chucked them on aswell as some eBay clear bumper indicators. I managed to find some seat rails for the ma61 seats iv had sitting around so they went in too.
  3. Recently aquired this gem from albury nsw sight unseen and drove it all the way home (ballarat Victoria) without it skipping a beat and went about getting it up to road worthy spec and making it my own. And then after getting it road worthy fitted some reset leafs I had acquired and some choppies till I get my corona struts sorted and chucked on a set of ssr formula stars I had holding up my ke25 Next on the list of things to do is swap out the terrible standard vinyl seats for some velour ma61 items and mod the sump on this sucker and chuck her in
  4. Got my new inserts in the xt130 struts and bolted them in and picked up some new shoes for her 14x6.5 +5 SSR Formula stars :)
  5. That's not what I wanted to hear but in saying that my el-cheapo ke70 ones have held up ok for 3 years so I'd like to think they will be ok
  6. Also some other goodies I have on there way are the gland nuts to suit the new kyb inserts for my xt130 struts then I can chuck them in and have her back on all 4 and these mirrors I took quite a liking to. obviously not the legit ones but theyl do and 1/4 of the price hah
  7. Yeh not cheap but you can't have recaro seats and not have a nardi wheel right? Lol
  8. Picked up another nice addition for the 25 once she's all back together probably a bit premature but keeps me motivated till I can get the paint and panel done
  9. It's down to two colours new 86 blue or old faithful big bad orange or a variant of it atleast
  10. Got some jap ke30 axles shortened so fitted them up and some new wheel cylinders wich takes care of the rear 4x114.3 conversion and brakes side of things then for shits and giggles bolted up a pair of 15x8 +0 rota grids (don't worry she won't be rolling on rotas when she's done)
  11. Beautiful car Adam and love the plans for it pity you didn't stay down our way so I could admire it driving around my old Toyota lacking town hah!
  12. Have to agree never thought I'd find a pair for what I paid either just pure luck I stumbled apon them while flicking through my Facebook news feed and convinced him to remove them from the car he was selling just before someone agreed to buy it
  13. Picked up a pair of old school recaros that I think will look right at home in the 25 need retrimming but I need the back seat and head lining done aswell so will all get them all done at the same time
  14. Yeh I'm keen mate pm me some details
  15. Haha unfortunately no the rust is all in the top half towards the back window :(
  16. Been browsing the inter webs and found this bobtail spoiler I quite like what's peoples thoughts on them?
  17. Thanks for sussing out for me tho mate appreciate it hopefully the one Jono has got onto is in good shape!
  18. Legend that would be very helpful!
  19. I'm keen on anything that will be of use console especially, diff will be later on down the track but will still be good to get one sorted I also need a rh door glass as mines got burn marks from weld slag and ke25 headlight garnishes instead of the ke20 ones
  20. Yeh the front is already 4x114.3 the rear is still 4x110 wich I already have a pair of 13" Superlites to suit. I have a pair of 14" ones on the front ATM il get some 14" for the back when it's 4x114.3
  21. Haha yep there for this rig to get her through Rwc with same size all round till I get some shortened ke 30 axles or get a t series under her bum
  22. That would be great thanks! I Got bored today after going to the tccav coffee cars and doughnuts meet this morning so I roughly slapped her together and chucked some Superlites on and one of my chin spoilers to give myself some motivation
  23. Haha yes I was suprised too but definitely not complaining rust is minimal worst is the bottom of LH qtr window bottom of rear gaurds and the bonnet and bootlid, Dave is helping me out with a decent bonnet so have to find a decent bootlid or try repair the existing one and I have the grill and infill panel just need some headlight outer garnishes as it had ke20 ones on it and I'm keen on flares when the time comes 👍
  24. So after idolising Dave (te278u) te27 for years and also numerous other friends having tricked up ke2x I had to have one. After buying 3 other cars off Dave (ke10 and 2 ke70 wagons) he mentioned thinking of selling a ke25 he had stowed away in the corner of his shed to wich I of course replied "I want it" sooo now to make it into something I can drive daily and still have some fun. When I picked her up And at her new home after some cleaning and disassembling for paint and panel
  25. Ke25 coupe delux Built 2tg Rt132 struts Hilux brakes Ke30 booster Pajero master cyl Recaro seats Nardi wheel Will be a te27 in disguise :)
