  1. Hey Guys,

     

    Considering the option of respraying the Rolla while the engine is out and engine bay is completely

    stripped.

     

    Looking for someone locally who can do a top job but of course on a budget!

     

    Anyone on here willing to do the job or know of someone who can?

     

    It was only resprayed a few years ago so very limited body work required. A little sink back in some

    areas, some very minor dents and slight bubbling of rust around filler cap. Aside from that the car

    is still in really good solid condition.

     

    Thinking of going a satin white finish, or maybe a different white. Most importantly is getting the body

    back to dead straight.

  2. Up for sale is my 2001 Ford Econovan

     

    Located North West Brisbane.

     

    Looking for swaps for a tidy Corolla to a $4000 value or less for cash to help fund my KE25 resto!

     

    Good clean body and paint, no rust and good tyres.

     

    Interior is clean and tidy.

     

    Runs and drives very well. Manual shifts smoothly.

     

    Would be a great parts carrier, tradies van or turn it into a mini van.

     

    Tonnes of room inside!

     

    Let me know what you got.

    That was my effort. Not much progress from there unfortunately.

     

    I did already sus out your post but alas no final outcome as yet!

     

    I spoke to a local guy in Brissy today regarding new brake lines. He has quoted around $150 for the fronts

    double flared as required. He has also advised to keep the proportioning valve and try the AE86 master.

    The said the most important thing is that it is jetted correctly otherwise you end up with severely biased

    brakes. He has also suggested another guy who is supposed to be a true legend when it comes to braking

    systems locally.

     

    I will keep you updated on the progress. Just being cheap and lazy trying to find a tried and tested setup

    that works!

  4. Currently the master is the standard KE25 item. I have read that the Ford Meteors and Galant masters will fit.

    I think standard bore size of master is 11/16 but will need confirmation if anyone knows?

     

    Maybe the idea of the 86 master is the way to go, however will this suit a drum brake rear as the 86's more

    than likely came out with disc rear? I am also not sure if the brake proportioning valve needs to be kept or

    simply thrown over my shoulder.

     

    Brakes are something I have never had to play with so a massive learning curve.

     

    Cheers

  5. Hey guys,

     

    I am in the middle of transplanting a TE27 hydraulic pedal box into my KE25 but need some assistance

    with replacement master cylinder options. I am not going for a booster as I prefer the natural feel.

     

    The setup in the rolla is as follows.

     

    KE25 71 model

    TE27 hydraulic pedal box

    3TC (to be turbo'd at a later date

    Single webber so room is not an issue

    ADM AE86 struts and calipers

    Standard diff with drums

     

    Can someone who has had success with their setup please let me know what the simplest and best option

    for a replacement master cylinder.

     

    Yes there are a lot of options out there and info on the forum but a lot is heresay as opposed to sucessful

    conversions.

     

    Your help is appreciated.

     

    Cheers
