  1. hey all i recently bought a pair of electronic seats from an RZ supra n I'm having a bit of trouble fitting them.... the problme is i don't have the original seats and i need to make brackets to suit....does anyone kno the dimensions or whatever so i can make these damn brackets....thankyou for your time
  2. thx for help all.....went for the bolt n nut combo worked a treat!!!! another quick question if i may........is paying like $65 for piston rings expensive??? apparently there a good brand hastings.....anyone used them b4?
  3. hey i just read that three golden rules thing......I'm luke an apprentice mechanic from sydney with a ke20 in a million pieces...I'm rebuilding the engine n probably keep it stock for now just clean it all up...its bein painted at the moment in devil yellow like on the new monaros....got rz elec. supra seats for it but makin the brackets is killin me.....one day i'll put a (FLINCH) Rota in it but until I'm qualified I'm on the bones in my arse! so there now u kno me

  5. hmmm it seems i will just rebuild the old girl n clean her up a bit so she runs nice...seeing as i can't get much out of a 3k would a 5k injected turbo be a good idea n if so how much work will it need 2 put back in the ke20 cheers lads n lasses
  6. hey everyone iv just had my ke20 painted monaro devil yellow and now its time for some engine mods but i wna keep it reasonably cheap....gaskets n bearing etc r only $200 apparently so i'm wondering if i could get any decent power out of about $800-$1000.. i can do most of the work myself but I'm unsure what has been tried and tested....any help would b appreciated cheers ! *ALSO* does any1 kno of any1 who has given a ke20 a targa top? could be interesting I'm definately interested
  7. gotta agree the old rolla'z need more aftermarket parts..... so if any1 out there has the brains n balls n cas 2 make them....i will buy!! in particular short shift kit.....maybe a bolt in roll cage?? or even engine mount kits for newer engine conversions (like they sell at datspeed)
  8. hey all....i wouldn't really say I'm a regular to this site as I'm pretty new to the rolla scene ( and no matter how much i work on my car nothing seems to ever get finished) but do sydney rolla cruises go down much or would i be right in thinking the majority of you are from the sunshine state? if any1 in sydney has the willpower to organise such a meeting then let me kno....these things r so hard to organise, i wouldn't know whre 2 start.
  9. yes i too would agree...only the one could possess such knowledge...thankyou for your help my masked friend....also for the idea about the wreckers..
  10. hey all.....when i bought my rolla the dash foam had been ripped out and it was just the metal....as it is now...anyway i wanna buy some new dashfoam but i really can't figure out how to take the top plastic bit that sits over the back of the foam....also i errrr took out the original seats and bought supra reclining bucket seats :P had the rails from the rolla seats welded to the supra seats but now i can't find the nuts/bolts for the seats!!! does any1 kno the thread size of the 2 front bolts n then the 2 rear nuts ( the nuts for the bolts that can't come out of the rail...) I'm not expecting anyone to know the sizes but any help is great... cheers all Live the DREAM...Drive a KE20
  11. ok thx 4 the info man...nah havent heard of angelaz car a mate who used 2 own a ke20 like myself told me about them, is it a big job? n would it b expensive 2 have the exhaust manifold made & would the 4ke or 7ke efi manifolds bolt straight on or do they need some work? cheers lad
  12. i was recently at my local having a few beers on a friday evening after a hard weeks work, as i do most fridays....as the night wore on i found myself getting rather drunk, almost pissed you might say...at this moment a guy came up 2 me asked if i wanted a stereo 4 my car, anywayz i saw it it was all new in plastics n seemed like a good deal at 250........the next day when out at JB hi fi buying wiring to hook the damn thing up there it was, my newly purchased deck at a drunken bargain of 250....on sale for 220....as you can probably guess my heart sank an i felt like a tool......whats the moral to my story??? **don't BUY HOT STEREOS, ESPECIALLY WHEN DRUNK** Note** i don't condone the traffickin of stolen goods, unless they r from a major company or corporation, don't break into cars, its such a low thing to do......that is all
  13. hey all i heard rumour of a 5k injected turbo? any1 kno if theres any truth to this n if so any idea where to pick one up? i don't imagine they would b easy 2 find....also what were they from...was there a turbo hiace or something? lolzzzzz
