nah mate it wasnt my car, my car is still getting built. I'll have the pick of the engine mounts and gearbox cross member tommorrow

like everyone has said great work, looks great and I'm sure goes great. I'm with ya on the whole sleeper thing, I'm keeping my ke30 the standard cream colour as well, just giving it a nice new respray. Any power figures yet, and what ecu are u running?

hey mate, looking good, can i ask how did the body work for you?

hey mate, i got my diff shortened here in sydney at a place called craft diffs. Because me and my mate both got ours done together, paying cash, we managed to get a massive saving, it came to 1250 cash each. Which included the shortening, mini spool and 4.11 gears. If you do wanna get it done through there ask for Red, great bloke and really looked after us

for the price that i managed to get this s15 motor with low k's on it it worked out cheaper for me to go this way. I don't plan on running more then 10 psi on high boost and I'm going to get it very safely tuned. But i know of alot more people who are running motors like this with alot more boost and still have now dramas. Plus the high comp will bring boost on quicker. Well thats then plan anyway.

Hey guys i just finished putting my shortened commodore diff and commodore disks in my ke30 corolla. The engine thats going in this car is a sr20de+t from a s15 and a s14 gearbox. All the mounts have also been made up and the motor has just been taken out for paint, will post pics up of that when the motor goes back in. I jusyt realised after i took all the photos that i didnt take one with the calipers on. I'll take some more photos of the car's progress, like when i put the new fuel lines and motor and gearbox back in. I just got my fuel lines back after having them made up. I got 3/8 bundy, i got them to follow the exact bends of the standard line. The side by side shot shows what a difference in size it is. I;ve just posted some pics up of the engine fitted, fuel lines in, my engine mount and the gearbox crossmember. the car is turbo'd the air filter is just there to stop dirt getting in the plenum until i fit the turbo and manifold. Also the crossmember mount was completely welded at time of photo it was only tacked in however its all welded up now so let me know if anyone wants a photo. motor fitted left engine mount gearbox crossmember fuel lines fitted fuel lines Fuel lines Caliper Bracket Commodore Diff Commodore Diff In Disk Comparrison, Guess which is the corolla one haha Disk in the strut Machined hub with corolla bearings

there is no way in nsw a ke20 corolla with a sr20det would pass engineers legally.

i don't understand what you mean i tried putting it in and it didn't fit. In which way doesn't it fit. If you know someone who know's how to weld its lot easeir then you think. I've got one in my ke30 and the hardest thing so far has been fitting commodore breaks and changing from cable to hyrdaulic clutch. I'm not gonna lie it isnt cheap even with calling in favours from people because all the little things add up like buying the motor, gearbox clutch master cylinder, new disks, fuel, ecu wiring etc....but i you need a hand at all just ask and i'll get some pics to ya cheers

true, true, thanks mate i appreciate the help. cheers, i'll keep you posted

is it legal to have rubber hose run under the car, but your idea of just changing the return line is great idea. do you think that the standard fuel in line will be adequate to be used as a return and will it make much of difference if the fuel in line is bigger then the fuel return line?

I'm currently putting a s15 sr20de+t in my ke30. The motor is in along with the gearbox, diff and front disks. I'm currently doing the fuel, should i change the standard fuel lines to bigger ones? or will the standard ones be adeqaute.

My brother had custom brackets made up to fit vr commodore brakes, he also had commodore disk machined to make corolla bearing fit in them(they had to insert sleaves to make the bearings fit). the machining of the disks wasnt that cheap , about 500, but there was quite abit of trial and error to make the bearings fit properly. All looks good now. The brakes are huge for the car but he does have a sr20 in his, and like someone said earlier there is now such thing as overkill on brakes

just wondering how often should one hand crank a motor while its sitting out of a car, and what amouint of oil should be put in while doing it, if it makes a differnece its a sr20, and i know that this is a toyota forum but its going in my ke30, all mounts are done, brakes done and diff installed. cheers

just a quick note if your in nsw an you want it legal neither will pass engineers. 13 NA or 12at will be your best bets.

hey thanks for that bruce. much apresheated :)

yes thats right the earlyier one. its one piece compared to the other style that has the top piece and bottom piece that is seperat. just wanted to know if it would fit.

rolla boy the dash you got now in your rolla and it shows the pic of the tv. thats the dash i have in my ke30 now. i want to put the other style dash where its all one piece and it has jst one flat piece where the gauge cluster is. cheers

hey everyone, i got a 1978 ke30 with the 2 peice dash in it. i don't really like it and i want to put the one piece flat dash in. does anyone know if there is a difference between the two and if it will bolt straight it. sorry if its a noob question but i couldn't find it anywhere. cheers
