Why Windscreens Are Called That
I'll put my hand up for either the front man job, or just the bloke that thrashes them. I even have previous experience in the latter... :D

T50
That's a very good point. I hadn't thought of that....

Renegade RP13 is what mine is. I love it, it's a weapon. It'll run anything all day.

I get that out of my 3K on a rally. Sounds about right to me at full noise.

Race Seat For Ke2x?
Are you sitting down? They're about $700. When your next in BNE, check Revolution, Tyretech and the other mob on Toombul road. That'll give you a good cross section of what's available. You should be able to find a good seat for under $500.

You can borrow mine if you like. It's 13 CFM, and will run off 10 amp....

God forbid, yes they actually sold Diesel Gemini's here. They were about as popular as 4 cylinder Commodores.

Break In Secrets
I'm a run-it-in-like-your-going-to-drive-it person. The Pajero was driven like a daily driver. One Dwarf engine did 30 laps of Calder to run it in, and it lasted over 5 years. Current engine was driven to Willowbank, then did an Autocross to settle it. Admittedly I didn't take it over 6 or at the most 7K. It still goes fine.

Race Seat For Ke2x?
Velo Monaco mounted to standard KE25 mounts. Adjustable where all the others are solid mount. Hope this helps!

Race Seat For Ke2x?
Sparco Sprint Jr in Bluey. Bottom mount. Could have used original mounts, put thought we'd lower the C of G! On both of these seats, they're mounted to a piece of 8mm bar welded to the bottom part of a standard seat runner.

Race Seat For Ke2x?
This is the Velo GP90 in Bluey. In Red we still had it mounted to the standard runners, but we had to make the seat a bit lower in Blue, hence sitting on the floor.

2t Or To 3t
*sighs* What do you want to do with it, and what do you want to put it in, and for what usage? I have a non standard 2t-g and it has more torque than you'll get out of a 4a-ge. On the minus side, they're an old technology "old school" motor that have all the problems associated with something that powered Noah's Ark. I personally think you should paint them blue so you don't scare the fish when you drop anchor.

Head Work
Because I'm old and crusty. Try this for a bit of reading... http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?s...5k%20head&st=15 http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?s...1638&hl=5k+head Xany has a thread kicking around somewhere, too.

Nice Little Info Site
Hi, Bill Dixon's the name.... :D

Head Work
Rummage around in the general mechanical section, as there is a couple of threads on this. Alternatively look in Toymods.com, or superjamies site. Google.com can help, too. If you ever use the words "pump it to the max" again in a post, I will never talk to you again. :D

T50
Unless you have a K bell housed T50, it wont fit. Trust us. If you do have one, you're in possession of gold, and a few people in here would like to buy it off you, or find out where you got this one from. If it's a t50 out of a Celica/Sprinter/T18, it ain't gonna fit a 5K. *shrug* Try it and find out.

Race Seat For Ke2x?
Jamie, my nav bought a Sparco Sprint Jr for himself in the EVO2. I know he paid less than $500 for it. Mounts in well, and I don't think you will have height issues. I actually have more issues mounting seats in the 55 than in the 25. I'll take some piccies for you if you like. My Velo is a side mount, but the Sparco is a bottom mount.......

Gallangowan 2004 Speed Humps
The first time I was brown-eyed in a forest, I could drive straight for kilometers. The really funny bit was that Mel missed it!!

Gscc Hillclimbs Round 1
Is that Peter Robinson the one in Melbourne that specialises in Corolla's? If so I disagree with him. It wouldn't be the first time, either. If you want to go fast up a hill climb, you want 4.5's. 4.8's would be even better.Yes the gears will run out quicker,but you'll have better acceleration, and you'll be in third still accelerating, when others are in second and maxed out. The legendary Murray Coote (he of proflex fame and rally god status) stated that if you can pull another gear for even two seconds, you'll be going faster. With the 4.5's you will change to third earlier, and therefore gain the advantage. Meh, so you have to change down again, no biggy. Make me a realistic offer for the carbs (and that goes for anyon else, too). 1 1-2 SU's, CP4 needles, linkages, filters, set-up, good to go. I am however going away in 5 hours for about three weeks, so have a think about it. You could probably make me an offer for the Dwarf, too. :P
