  1. Like I said, if you're not a ghetto fix sort of guy I wouldn't recommend it... But the bolts are giant huge ʞ©$ɟ-off indestructible, so they should be right.
  2. I put R31 control arms in my KE55 (cause I had them lying around), should be the same as KE70 yeah? It was a pretty dodgy job, if you're not a ghetto fix sort of guy I wouldn't suggest it..... Anywho KE55's have 10mm or so bolt for the crossmember -> control arm R31's have a bolt with a 10mm or so thread but a 14mm or so body, so I drilled the rear holes of my crossmember out with some drillbit I had lying around which happened to be the right size (can't remember what size but about 14mm). Like I said the thread is the same size so you only have to drill out one hole for each side. By some chance the bolts were the perfect length and the bushes the correct width so it turned out pretty damn snug in the end. The second problem is the ball joints, the R31 has giant huge ʞ©$ɟ-off indestructible bolts for the ball joins -The tapers will NOT fit stock KE55 steering arms, but since they're so giant huge ʞ©$ɟ-off indestructible you can just bolt them in anyway and get heaps sick roll centers. ~I just read you're using s13 hubs (durr) so NM this part, but *THEMOREYOUKNOW!*~ My stock KE55 tie rods had more than enough adjustment to be used with the longer control arms because steering boxes kick arse, since you have a homosexual rack I don't know if you'll have the same luck. Caster rod holes I redrilled heaps futher out, which allowed me to wind in dickloads of castor with stock rods -I can suggest this! Here's an illustration I prepared in super special christmas colours:
  3. Yeah there's one of those on Yahoo atm, used, $200ish, looks like a decent manifold.
  4. If any motor is worth it, it's the K motor! The manifolds go for about $350 on Yahoo auctions + postage to Streeter + Streeters commision + postage to Aus You might get one for $500 to your door. And you know it's going to be top shit, Kameari are the go to guys for L-series - they make a mean looking set of 6-1 extractors.
  5. I'm guessing you probably mean "KAMEARI" inlet manifold, they do look a lot better than redline ones (who I'm certain never actually looked at a K motor): http://www.kameariusa.com/4Kproducts.php It's good to know your K motor takes such a punishing!
  6. Edit: From your discription it's probably for the bracket which holds the clutch cable sleve in place.
  7. Bill sherwood shares a bit of info on 4afe and 7afe heads, he reckons there is one special one which will flow better than a 4age head with a bit of work etc etc. Have a look around his site - you might learn something! http://www.billzilla.org/starleteng.htm
  8. T50 Looks to have a different bellhousing on in but, maybe you struck it lucky and picked up a K-T setup? T50s have better (closer) ratios than a K50 at any rate.
  9. This should tell you everything you need to set it up: http://forums.club4ag.com/zerothread?id=359 This should help you tune it: http://www.club4ag.com/faq_and_tech_pages/Carburators_4A-GE.htm
  10. Judging by the spark plug holes it's had a decent ammount taken off it, I reckon that'll do you nicely.
  11. You would have to cc the head, measure piston height at TDC and figure out the the thickness of your headgasket (after it is compressed) to work it out properly. Even after all that, figuring out how much to take off the head for desired CR would be a bit of a guess. If I were in your position, provided the head you are using hasn't been shaved before, I'd take about a millimetre off - it might bump you up around 9:1 but that won't be a problem. You sure as shit won't have any problems with valve clearance untill about the 4mm mark, and a little extra compression on a tired old 3k won't do no harm.
  12. Yeah man the Hr31 in my pic, semi-trailing single wishbone IRS just like the 1600, they get very similar ammounts of camber. Was proper low too, had -4deg easy. In my experience a couple of degrees too much camber is better than none at all. But I guess if Ben were to go through the huge pain in the arse involved in fitting IRS to a leaf sprung corolla he might as well go all out and put the latest greatest multi-link under her.
  13. I'll take gangsta rear camber over a live rear any day, my skyline shat all over my corolla running the same wheels/tyres. Unless you're talking about drag racing..... that's another story!
  14. Mystery solved!!!!!!!!! Thanks mate you're a genius, looks like an easy fuel tank to modify for EFI. You should throw your conversion up in the Wiki.
  15. Go low - get phat camber.... I'm not seeing a problem here!
