Hope to see it run tonight, has it been tuned yet?

When it stops bloody raining ill get some better pics.

Hi guys, thought id finally put up a thread on my twinky. When i bought her the amount of rust in it was unbelievable, and it was pretty beaten up and abused. It really should never have been on the road, but i managed to get a roady done from a mate. It was a daily for about 6 months, then the rear crank seal gave way. I'm close to getting the engine cleaned honed and re assembled, but its never going back on the road. Ive completely stripped the interior, cut the roof off etc, pictures will tell the story. It will live out its days as a go kart pretty much. Ive got about half the cage welded up, just need to get some bends done. Pics will be up soon.

15psi into a stock 4age bottom end? :yes: :happy: What he said lol. Interesting to see how long itll hold up. Pretty cool though.

Wow, the P plates set it off........

Sounds like a plan :P

A new head gasket shouldnt fail that quick. Have you got a temp guage hooked up? Seen your videos but don't remember. Was it run in and on boost at the time? Love your work mate. Also, how was the engine worn in? How was it driven? Cheers.

If i had the money id come and watch haha, what sorta time you aiming for?

I think i made a mess in my pants :wink: Years back i had 2 ta22's, and this is pretty much exactly what i had planned for it, same colour too. Really nice work man.

Good luck lol. P plates are a huge turn off. For me anyway.

Aahh, ok. Makes sense now. I wouldnt trust my wife with 400 horsepower lol. Ill be seeing you soon, i need some parts, and a new turbo.

Christian?

Why have i not noticed that your in Toowoomba till now :P Why don't i see this gettin around much? You have to let me have a perve one day. Your weekend car looks like fun too :) What do you reckon about the guys at MTQ? Cheers, Luke.

Need an update man, loving your car. I need a rollaclub cruise as soon as I'm back on the road in my rolla. Update!!

:blinks:

I love the amount of thought, knowledge and study that is going into this.

At the wheels, that would be a little bit of fun :D Any plans for it?

This is farkin nice man, did you do the work yourself?

Wheels look awesome!!

I can't get over the fact that we didnt get (or i havnt seen) The 2 door ae1xx series in Australia. And ive only seen 1 ke70 2 door in my life. Why didnt we get them? :dance:

Looks like an awesome project, ive always wanted a 2 door :wink: One day maybe, keep us posted.

Awesome work man, when will i see it on the streets of Tbar? :thumbsup:

Wow, your putting 3 taco/ tacho's in it? Thats awesome!!!!! :lol: Sorry, i don't wanna be mean...

I only read the first few posts hahahaaaa. Seriously, how old are you? You want a quick off the mark, FPV sounding, turbo doseing corolla? Wont sound like a FPV, but try a 4agze or an sr20, or save up your pennies and go all out, like 2jz-gte or something.

You would almost be better off getting a second hand door from the wreckers mate.
