Clapped out

Cough "10 sec stance" cough. i don't know why people bother? :no:

I'll say!

he's another person i never see on here? :no:

Looking great matt! I take it your going to be useing the 70 as the new thrash car insead of the 71? I recon this thing will be a bit of a goa when its done! :no:

hey there jip, that blue thing (55s) in the photo doesnt look that bad in the pic? or is it that bad?

Yeah man, it can be easily! just spray more coats of red! More red paint= more power! :)

^^^^^^^Yeah mate, good point! yeah i was refering to the ke3x and ke5x models only! as the car in question is a ke30, ive never had anything to do with the more late model rolla's. cheers phatke30!

I really like the orange too, although a nice metallic cherry red would look nice as well! you know painting a car red gives you an extra 50 rwhp! :) cheers phatke30!

^^^^^^^^^every word you said is true, every word, (I'm part of the problem too) you can run any electronic fuel pump you like (not injection pumps though), depends what is on hand and available at the time. if the pump isnt matched to the application your useing it for, install a fuel regulator, problem solved! Sorry for off topic guys! cheers phatke30!

Hey man , one thing, just put a pair of seat covers on the front seats, he's gone a bit "tight arse". :)

Looking good! seems to be a tidy hardtop! one thing i really like, the colour of your's and jips hardtops! The colour really stands out! cheers phatke30!

Yeah mate thats true, all models have this, no need to drill the hole, its already there, although you will still have to change over the whole pedal box as the auto pedal box doesnt have the housing for the clutch pedal, cheers phatke30!

Yeah it has been covered before, i can definatly help you out, ive done this before. things i need to know to help you before i can tell you what you need, (if that makes sence). i need to know -what year model exactly -2 or 3 speed auto -photo of the underside of your floor pan (where the gearbox cross member bolts to the floor, some ke30-55 didnt have all the bolt positions for both auto and manual together), cheers phatke30!

true, you would have to be pretty retarded not to be able to mount, connect positive and negative and connect fuel hose on a electronic fuel pump! lol! You got this thing ready for the road yet? :)

We can only hope dougy! :D

it would have been finished ealier if i didnt sheer off a certain tranny cooler line off the side of the gearbox! cheers phatke30!

Welcome aboard! just to pick your noodle, exactly what mods did you have in mind? engine? suspension? body? interior? cheers, phatke30!

Hey there mate, i just sold my ke30 3t-2tg, but remember the car well, the simplest way out of it would be just to use a (as stated earlier :) ), ta22 5 speed, or a t18 5 speed, depending on how you make up your engine mounts (thanks 2tgeu ke35 :cool: ), my engine mounts were modified in the exact position as the k series ones, which allowed me to use the stock crossmember and tailshaft, although i had to slightly cut the shifter hole larger to house the gearstick, hope this helps cheers phatke30!

That could have been it, didnt have the cressida wheels on it though, had what looked to be 5 spokes, a large built young bloke was driving it.

Spotted this arvo heading along anzac av into redcliffe, a black ke30,55? alloys, exhaust, looked ok from a distance, looked as if it had been painted with pressure pack cans?

That is so true,either that or give it more revs! :)

^^^^^^Are you sure that you both arnt brother and sister? lol! you both have the exact same cars, both very tidy! :)

Hey all, just thought id update this thread with more pics of the weekends fun! We came across a couple groups of four wheel drives, they thought we were absolutly f@$king stupid putting these old girls through their paces! lol! Although i told them "Who needs a four wheel drive when you can buy a corolla!" They couldnt really answer that?

Maybe the previous owner hit a gutter side on (on the passenger side) and bent the chassis? hope this isnt the case!

Yeah mate its only a hardtop not a 2dr sedan hey? Your right on the ball there dougy! 2dr sedans are a class of their own! If only i could have picked up a 4 door sedan at the time instead of the hardtop! But i bought what was available at the time.
