I am keen for this too guys
If i can get my diff finished in time i might do the driving event as well.
It would be good to finally be able to push the old beast, without freaking out about blowing the standard single spinner.

Hi Mitch, sounds like it could be an earth problem.
Make sure that no earth wires have come off some where.

Great turn out for a Perth event, and good to see some old school cars mix it up with hoards of s15's and skylines.
My heart goes out to the young guy with the Ke20, that dude with the forester was up my arse from the get go, when i heard screeching i thought he was hitting me for sure.
He only missed me by inches so the corolla had no chance of stopping in time behind him.
Can't believe how opportunistic the cops are, they were loving it...!!
Heres some pics of some of the corollas and other cool rides.
This skyline was overrated, until he opened the bonnet, it had stinking 308 v8 in it..!!!
Still one of my favs though
Ken's 10ft celica
some more celica goodness
I was parked next to a sick concourse level RX4, like it just came from the factory
turbo Ke38
A few ke/Ae70's
There was some crew giving away stickers as well..!!!
Twin turbo
Got a few more shots i will post up later, in the mean time enjoy

Hi all, if it's not going to be too wet i might tag along.
My beast is no show car though..!!!
I am coming from south of the river, so i will try and make it to the Riverton forum meet up.
See you there

Hi mate,
Marty k did that on his sr build, he has some pics in the photo gallery its in the project/build section.
It's an orange ke35.
I personally put mine in the boot with no problems, as do allot of crew.
I have some photos in my build thread, any reason you want to go under the car?
-
Hey Gav,
Glad it went to good home.
Hope she serves you as good as it did me mate.
Keeping an eye on this one.
-
just fell in love with ke55's awesome work!
clean crisp and flawless love it mate, may have taken a while but holy tits it was worth the wait for the quality.
custom catch can or off shelf item?
Thanks guys,
The catch can was custom made, with an aftermarket shielded filter on top.
With the catch can fitted no more crankcase fumes go into the intake.
win win

Nice looking twin plate,
Had one on a road/race car years ago, great clutch but rattled like hell and drove me nuts.
Cars coming along nicley, keep it up.!!!
-
Well i drove my car today, it had been two weeks. :o
Always puts a smile on my face. :)
We need 4 day weekends, 2 for doing shit around the house and 2 for having fun.
If i was elected prime minister i would implement that as my first election promise...!!
-
Wow it's that quiet here, I can hear the crickets......!!!!
What's happening in Perth?
-
Fits fine in a ke55 not sure on a ke30, i have an sr engine and gearbox in my ke55 (check out my thread for pics) the only thing is the shifter position is further back and a new custom gearbox mount of course.
Clearance around the bell housing and the rest of the box is fine.
-
Hi,
Speaking from experience the sr20det is pretty straight forward to fit, custom engine and gearbox mounts are easy enough, no fire wall or tunnel mods needed in ke35/55 not sure if ke30 is different.
The tricky stuff can be the wiring and intercooler fitment fuel system, diff and so on and so on.......
It all can get rather expensive though, but well worth it.
-
Had too postpone the tune until i get a catch can fitted and the heat shield made for the air intake .
I fitted the catch can today.
And the cold air duct is done as well. Still have to make the heat shield.
You can see the alloy intake near the bottom of the valance.
-
Wow this car is sweet as mate high quality work on all levels. Can i ask where you got the radiator ?
Thanks for the compliment, the radiator was custom made by PWR in Queensland, top quality, couldn't recommend them enough. (not cheap though)
-
I've always liked these too..!!!
Look's great.
Keep the pics coming.
-
Thanks for the comments guy's, she's a long way off being rolla of the year worthy yet, but cheers for the remark.
The stain on the seat could be mistaken for poo :lolcry: , but it's just grease.
Will be getting new seats anyway, really chasing some period recaro's.
It's booked at the tuners in a couple of weeks, will be interesting what it puts out above standard power figures.
Heaps more to do and more pics to post soon :wink:
Here's one of the 55 next to the ke10 before it goes to it's new home.

A few more shots, this time of the interior.......
-
Sorry for the delay, here you go....

Gday every one and merry christmas,
Well it's been 2 months on the road and all good so far, i can't beleive the standard diff has held in as long as it has.
I suppose it doesnt really get driven much.
Although there has been no hard launches or any stupidity from me ( well not too much) it hasnt even started to whine yet.
Boost controler is hooked up and i will send it in for a tune soon, i just need to finish the cold air intake an a bit more pipe work.
I have done more work on the interior as well.
Hanging to take this thing down the strip and to do a few track days.
Will post up some more pics as soon as i download them from the camera.
-
Thanks guys, i will post up some more pics of the progress soon.
Hope to get the boost controller hooked up and give the car a good drive.
oh and the car came from Canberra, but it's in Perth.
-
Just drove the car for the first time, all i can say is "HOLLY SHIT". :o
I actually shouldn't be driving it, there's no boost control on it, i haven't connected the wastegate actuator yet.
But I couldn't resist, i kept an eye on the boost gauge and didn't let it boost too much..!!!
It's sure is a handful, damn thing is bloody quick.

Had it towed to the exhaust place this morning.
3" exhaust straight off the dump pipe, mandrel bends, two mufflers, one in the middle and one in the ass end, with a hidden 3" droopy tip.
Also the tail shaft is in, so i can finally drive it, kind of.
Still have to fit the blow off valve (plumb back) and the electronic boost control vacuum hoses, and a couple of other bits and pieces.
WooHooo getting there.
Might put a vid up of it running if i can figure out how to do it..!!
-
"It's ALIVE"...!!!!!!
Started it today, after nearly a year of working on this thing it finally runs, it doesn't drive but at least it's getting close.
After getting the oil pressure up, it turned over first go.
Sounds pretty good, even though there's no exhaust, only the dump and the secondary.
The tail shaft is getting done next week, then off to the exhaust place.
This has to be the most satisfying update thus far. :)
Chestikoph'S New Panel Van Daily
in Rollaclub Rides
Posted · Edited by chestikoph1
Just picked up a new daily, got it off a German backpacker who was going back home, she picked it from QLD and drove it over.
It's in pretty good nick body wise, very straight with no rust at all, not sure if thats rare for these things.
The interior is a bit rough though, the center console is busted up and the auto T bar is broken.
Runs good except for the whiney diff.
I have already put some other wheels and tyres on there, the ones she had on had started to separate and were causing the worst vibration.
Also put some new boat carpet in the back.
Not too clued up about these things, but is the sedan diff the same as the panel van? i need to get it sussed out asap.
Not going to do much to this one, just a tidy up and probably off load in a few months once my ke55 is back on the road
Here's some pics from her add, i will take some fresh ones and post up soon.
