haha yeah why not! Not much going on lately...I'm waiting on parts at the moment, so its held up my progess. Waiting on my engine mounts, sc14, fly wheel and brakes then i should have everything. Gonna clean up the motor more soon paint the block, change timeing belt and water pump. Plus ill have to stop the ke35 to clean up the ke20 i just bought to use as a daily till the ke35 gets on the road.

Mine now! :D Not as good as it looks thou...big dent in the drivers side rear quarter, interior is crapy, brake master stuffed and need to fix the way the clutch mater is set up. But other than that its good....also got locked diff, custom intake mani with ford throttle body and its very quick! I'm gonna fix it over the next 3 weeks then use it as a daily till i get my ke35 on the road.

they are retail, I just found them to do really good package deals on Lenso's.

Yeah I was thinking 16 or maybe even 17's if they fit? I'm properly going to get them baulkham hills tire king I got lenso's off them before for my prelude and they are really good, for the 18's on my prelude it was $1800 and if I remember correctly it was like around $1600 for 17's and less for 16's

yeah thanks mate its coming along. Slowly running out of money thou! haha

Thinking about getting new wheels...i like the lenso RS5. Wanna get a deeper dish at the back. Done a photo chop, what do you think? I made the wheels a bit too big thou but you get the idea. And some fun: haha

Yeah thanks mate...the plan is to get it going asap.....i just can't wait to drive it!! haha na I don't come that close to the roof....didnt really notice when i was sitting in the car. Thou when my mate was in the car (but he is very tall) his head was about 3cm from the roof but he said its the same for every car he gets in. and I'm going to use the original seat belts.

Got my seats in today. I bought Recaro copies off ebay, they came with universal rails but figured out it would be easier to modify the existing seat rails and make new mounting points on the new seats. These are the old and new seat mounting points: As you can see the new seats mounting points are closer together so I made some brackets to space them out horizontally and drilled new holes in the rails to fit them vertically: and the finished product:

Thanks...for the boot i just stripped it, degreased it all, then high pressure cleaned it, sanded it back, washed it out again, and then used a wax and grease remover. I painted it with body denitor in a spray can...so i didnt use a primer as apparently that stuff sticks to anything. As for the SC I'm going to use a SC14 instead of the SC12 to get more boost.

Got lots of new parts! for the fuel syatem ill be running a 2 litre surge tank, bosch 910 fuel pump and vl pre-pump in the tank. will hopefuly get it all in the car this weekend. also got my intercooler and oil cooler, with oil filter relocator. last weekend i did some painting...painted the cam covers and resprayed half of the engine bay cross member, sway bar and stuff. Looks so clean now, all ready for the gze to be dropped in!

yeah on a 4age you can mount the alt on the drivers side but on a gze that is where the supercharger is and the alt on a gze doesn't adjust like a 4age it has a separate adjuster....if that makes sense?! Pic: I'm gonna keep aircon but of course not have power steering. ill work something out...maybe jus modify the bracket and put the alt where the power steering is

ok cool. well i test fitted ae71 mounts and they fit in without the rubbers. So i just designed new ones off the ae71 mounts and shortend them by the thickness of the rubbers. the only problem I'm having is that my alternator is hitting my sway bar did you have this problem?

some of the work ive done so far: The boot had a fair amont of surface rust so i fixed it all up and painted it Before After the ke30 brake booster and pajero MC all cleaned up and ready for the hilux 4pots!

As some of you may know i bought millers ke35 coupe off him a couple of months ago. I'm gonna put a ae101 4agze with sc14 in it. I have already pulled out the 4k and started to fit the 4a, gonna make some custom engine mounts: watch this space for all the progress!

I'm currently designing some mounts for my 4agze into my ke35. just want to get some of ur opinions on where the engine should sit. i didnt want to drop it down into the engine bay too much, as the sump will sit lower than the cross member, and if i bottom out i don't want to be stuffing my sump. here the sump in line with the cross member: at the moment the engine is sloping towards the back a bit so the bottom of the sump is in line with the cross member. is this ok? thanks

I'm intersed too for a ke35 do u know how long it will be till they r ready?
