  1. I'm the same, day cruise sounds better, work takes up too much time
  2. Have you cranked it over yet? I'm in Bali at the moment, any thoughts on trying to find an electronic dizzy?
  3. ands its a bosch distributor, so will the hot spark work? will i need to put a nippondenso dizzy in and then convert it? Thanks
  4. thanks for your response, but is it vacuum-advance?
  5. Its an Auto at the moment but will be converting to manual shortly, if that makes a difference
  6. Or would it be easier instead of using the MSD 6AL to just use the Bosch Ignition module with the blaster Coil?
  7. Hey guys, I've been looking around through a few threads and can't quite seem to find the answer I'm Looking for. What I want to do is convert my points ignition to an electronic one, however, in preparation for a future engine build I'm looking at doing it with MSD gear. What I'm looking at are these; http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Coils/Stock_Replacement/8203_-_Blaster_2_Coil_w/Ballast___Hardware.aspx http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Ignitions/Daily_Driver/6425_-_Digital_6AL_Ignition_Control.aspx http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/toyota-3k-4k-5k-corolla-electronic-distributor-ke10-ke20-ke30-ke55-ke70-ke38-k-/111272845830 The car has a Bosch Distributor and changing the points often is giving me the S@#$&, as the car starts to run rough. Looking through jackbyo's write up (http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/46089-how-to-install-an-electronic-distributor/) will the same instructions still apply with the gear I'm looking at? And Is there anything I'm overlooking? Excuse the noobness, I was working on EFI dunnydores before making the switch. Cheers in advance
  8. I found the event On gumtree, so I'm not the organiser, but I hadn't heard of them, so I'll give them a like, maybe they'll know more
  9. Alright Perth RollaClub we need a better show up of Cars, Toyotas in the park was great yesterday, but I reckon we should get together more often and on the entry form for titp next year have that we represent RollaClub WA. How about we drag the cars out for a Car Cruise? http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/scarborough/activities-hobbies/oldschool-jap-cruise-03-11-13/1028596635 Meet at Scarborough Beach Car Park at 10:30 on November 3rd. Hope to see you guys all there. Perhaps we could get some stickers or something made up so we actually look like a group aha
  10. yeah loved the little rollas that showed up, that little one with the 2tg was sweet as
  11. Who's going to Toyotas in the park this year? http://www.teccwa.com/entry
  12. Let it be known for future readers of this thread, home brand superglue is perfectly fine for fixing your choke knob with... No need with a name brand the cheap crap works just fine
  13. Yeah thanks for that, I see there is a spot for some sort of screw or something, but I tried the old araldite and that didn't seem to last one pull on the knob... Cheers
  14. Yeah well the idea only popped into my head because I found a 2jz On gumtree for $400, so rebuild was the idea... But a 4k would probably be better, stick original and be different by keeping the original motor aha, already has 8" deep dishes On her so rins are set, suspension would probably be next then... While I'm here, anyone got any tips on sticking that black bit back on the choke? I have to pull the choke with pliers on the cold mornings otherwise... Thanks
  15. Aha cheers for the help guys, maybe I'll just buy a second hand 4k and build it up, then I'll only change the engine number and hopefully make it a manual, until I'm rich or win lotto, thanks for all your help
  16. Would the Holden 3.8L ecotec v6 be a viable option? I have 2 of those just sitting around and 1 gearbox to suit? Although the weight of the car and engine displacement thing comes into play with trying to get it registered... Is it possible to get a higher displacement engine registered in a little car or is that the definite Rule no exceptions?
  17. Well on the cash side of things I'm not that well off being a uni student... So I'm looking at something under about $5k... I looked at that 1jz wagon, are the two engines really that different in length? I also saw someone mention On ae86 Driving club forums that because it's such a large engine far forward in the car it would reduce weight On the back wheels like a see saw, would it be better to go with the v8? Because it's not so long physically? Thanks for the quality responses guys
  18. I was hoping to have it registered, although this is going to be a long term project, currently the car is my daily so i would need another car to drive daily before the conversion, i was thinking about buying all the parts over the next year or two and then seeing where i'm at. Currently a pipe dream. I'm looking at an engine on gumtree that doesn't have a gearbox so ill need to source one. is the engine bay actually large enough to fit without modification of the firewall? or would the v8 be a better fit? thanks
  19. So I'm looking at converting my KE70 sedan auto to a 2jz possibly, (otherwise looking at the holden 304/308), what I'm after is some idea of what i'll need to buy to do the conversion, eg gearbox and engine mounts... It has a welded stock diff and completely stock apart from the rims and flat front conversion. Relatively new to the rolla scene, used to be in the commodore group. I also have a supercharged v6 commo engine sitting around at home, but i'd like to stay mostly toyota. Any help would be appreciated, cheers
  20. OK so I know there like a thousand threads on the KE70 diff, and i thought i'd add to them... Anyone in perth that is keen to swap a locked diff centre for an open centre? i have a locked and its a pain to drive as a daily so anyone wanting the locked up diff, ill be glad to swap it. Cheers
  21. Just bought myself a little KE70 two days ago so I guess i can count for this now... Name: Braiden Rides: KE70 Sedan, VS Commodore Wagon super6 (blown head gasket) Occupation: Uni Student
