  1. If the body is done with the same perfection as the rest of the car, any finish will look the part. To me the car is custom enough to accompany any new paint finish, and a standard finish may even look a bit half done. Candy apple red is, almost, always a nice choice. With lots of clear to set off the depth of the coat :)
  2. Yeah, I defiantly think the black/green effect would be the best option...my brothers' Sil80 is gunmetal grey, it is a wicked colour... I just love my hotrods and think the matte finish is cool and something different, but you're probably right, may be a bit of a waste with all the prep you're doing... then again the paint probably wont matter once you reveal what's under the bonnet lol
  3. Being that your on the green/black wave length, possibly this... Or Matte Gunmetal grey... Also, Ive seen your build, and being a ke20 owner, this is the best corolla Ive ever seen.
  4. Keep in mind that most of these upgrades have a PCD of 4x114.3 (standard ke20 PCD being 4 x 110) but if you're running ke70 front struts, the are 4x114.3 anyway... plus 4x110 can be a pain to source wheels for, 4x114.3 is a very common stud pattern
  5. I doubt they are much stronger, Id say they are basically the same, mine was just to replace the welded center I had... I'm about to drop a significant amount more power in my 20, and will be running a shortened R31 diff, but that will be a bit of work. There's a few upgrade options, like hilux, T series, or even a ke30-55 diff may do... all need a bit of work to make them fit though, really depends on budget, how much weight u want, and how keen you are to do the work
  6. If you're just after a diff center, you can use a 'Toyota Tercal 4wd' rear diff center, they are the same. you may even find they have the taller ratio. Not sure if the whole diff assembly, wheel to wheel, is the same, but the center is for sure... Try the guys at 'Just Wrecking Toyota' they hooked me up when i had the same problem, good guys to deal with too.
  7. Awesome, I couldnt see why it wouldnt, but Ive read some confusing stuff. Cheers man, My mate will be happy to hear it
  8. Hey guys, So my mate had a little misfortune with the 5k in his ke30, and essetially the engine needs to come out. Luckily he does have a spare running 4k to go straight in, however it only has a 4speed whilst the 5k has a 5speed bolted to it. I'm just wondering in the 5speed box from the 5k will bolt up to the 4k? If not, why? Ive done a bit of research with mixed results, but the rollaclub has come though for me before. Cheers guys
  9. Haha Spewin, worth a shot Thanks for you prompt and definitive answer
  10. Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had any idea if you could replace the standard ke20 tail lights(pictured below) with ke25 tail lights (pictured beneath)? The overall shape of the tail lights seem to be very similar, but i wasnt sure if they would fir in the recessed section in the rear of my ke20. Any help would be awesom, cheers
  11. Unfotunatly no, I can't imagine it being too hard, ive seen guys mount other bumpers on ke70s with little effort. But i was wondering how long you had to wait for the bumpers from kay parts, and how much they cost you all up with delivery.
  12. Thanks for the help guys, Just got hold of one... After weeks of searching, a very helpful wrecker down the road tracked one down. For future reference, they use the same diff centres in the 83-86 Toyota Tercel 4wd (for those that didnt know) Thanks again
  13. Definatly jap then... I think its what they call a 'banjo' centre, could be totally wrong, anyway the diff centre unbolts from the front. Not sure if there is another model that will fit in its place, I'm not having alot of luck tracking down ke20 parts
  14. don't know man, how do i tell?
  15. Hey guys, Ive been looking for a diff or diff centre to replace the welded one in my ke 20. I can't find one anywhere Can anyone help, If any other diff centre will fit the standard housing can someone let me know. Or tell me where to get the info. will pay good money for the right part. Cheers
