Enkei Shurikins bro!

Ive done a rides page for them some time ago... may have to search back quite along time lol. or i know i put some pics in the KE2# page bit if you take alook there for my username Thanks guys for your comments!

Well ive been on the hunt for a ke26 in tidy condition ever since i brought my ke25 5yrs ago! an one finally came up worthy of handing the $ over for this week! So now the shed has an original ke20 4dr, ke25, an this ke26... New addition to the family.. purchased off trademe this week. This is what the add said: "Brand new warrant and 6 months registration. In good condition considering its nearly 40 years old. 4k motor with after market exhaust and lumpy cam. Starts everytime as K motors do. White wall tyres Chrome fender mirrors AA Badge Deluxe seats Saas Steering wheel Lowered front and rear Custom Toyota side strips" looking forward to its arrival... wont be starting work on it until I'm back in the country for xmas. Future plans are to restore it back to factory. Car has arrived at home now, I'm still over in Perth until xmas holidays so when I get back ill get into it an do some work on it to match my other 2 cars an make it a bit more original... removal of the 4k an replace with 3k, suspension change, new exhaust, 12" rims with hubbies n whitewalls, remove stereo an steering wheel etc... alot of personal touches really... Enjoy... will update when i get new pics an works taken place

rito, my s3 rx7 starter motor gave up! grrr the bushes are completely gone, rest looks ok, but not 100% sure. is there any places in kewdale/welshpool that recon them? its an 11 tooth item from a s3 rx7 12a 5spd manual. s3 has an odd ball tooth config (more crankning rating apparently) will buy new but where to get them? help! thanks

1970 Toyota KE20 Corolla Brought this as a daily run-a-round back at the start of 2009 original 3k 4spd etc. Fixed what needed to be done at the time an drove it for a good 4-6mnths as my daily. Until the exhaust manifold gaveup yet again so i decided to do the KIWI thing an "chuck a rota in it au" Sourced a 12a 6port block from a cosmo, with 4barrel cabbie jetted for a bridgeport, & extractors brought a complete RX7 s1 for the g/box, driveshaft, wiring bits, radiator, coolers etc (basicly the whole package bar the motor) Stript the KE20 engine bay down, welded in the mounts, made the adjustments for the booster. Test fitted a dummy block/gbox in there. got it all sorted. Painted it with a coat of white paint, an black bits where needed. Dropt the motor an everything back in, got everything mounted an ready for wiring. fitted ke55 disc front brakes. All wired an started it up. Heres how she looks now... CURRENTLY FORSALE!!! Due to ownership of a few vehicles an the cost of Regos being high!

Anytime bro, just send me a PM an ill flick ya my cell.

Yup i sure do, mines an original white 1969 ke10 coupe with sunvisor, hubbies, etc... mite sell if price is rite.. (hardly gets used only when the ke36 isnt road worthy haha)

Quite possibly was mine! i was/live around that area :D

Hmmm Ill try bring the Rota KE20 but I don't think I will be within the criteria above, especially the "Cops won't target" bit... loud dodgy rota! haha All going to plan it should be ready to be unleashed onto the streets in the next few weeks.

Anyone in Perth work at a brake shop? or a hose doctor type shop? I need some brakelines flexable made up for my ke20. any sugestions of where to go for a decent job at a good price would be much appreciated cheers

Looks clean bro! as for the grille ive got a few in Perth an a stockpile of nearly all jap spec ke3# grilles sitting in NZ gathering dust... if anyone wants to make an offer on them

hmm the old rxKE20 will be going by then so may just make an appearance! in the final stages now of getting her to brake an quieten the exhaust note so its cop freindly :)

All sorted! managed to make it fit today with a bit of perseverance, fits in snug next to the clutch master cylinder. Few more things to do an it shud be nearly ready to hit the streets

OK, so I'm doing a rotary conversion on my ke20. I have a RX7 series 1 brakebooster to go in. Ive cut away all the un-necessary sheet metal in the way. Have got to this problem, i have to enlarge the 40mm standard ke20 hole to 50mm to accomodate the rx7 booster, Just wanting to know what sort of tools i will require to achive this? Or will i be beter of using a KE55 booster?

If I'm around ill bring the 10 along to burn out the cobwebs

Looks sweet bro! wouldnt wana sell that mirror or swap it for the ones i have on my ke10 or ke20??? Good luck with it, that blue is one of my fav colours for the ke2# series Hope ya have as many fun km's with the 3k as i did :worship:

just wondering if anyone on here works for toyota, prefer in perth metro area/surroundings looking to secure some k-series motor parts NOS also wondering if there is any ke10 or ke2# parts avalible in australia NOS NOS = New Old Stock Let me know! cheers

Negative to springs :P 1x leaf in rear! 0x springs up front Ended up in this state b4 went to the crushers

Yup ill probally kick myself in years to come, but Id rather see it in someone elses hands who will enjoy it an have it on the road more. + i am loving perth too much!!

Ill pm ya

$7500

A selection of old toyotas i have owned in the past in NZ 1st up is my old 1993 AE101 Levin 20v turbo I built this from scratch over 3yrs as it came a stock car from Japan, i was the 1st owner an this is how i sold it. Made covercar of a performance mag back home also was featured at the nationals etc. Heres the fun old toyota hacks ive owned Theres been other makes, but ive always been a toyota man! haha

So i thought id put up a few diff links to some of my previous toys i had back in NZ. This was my pride an joy for a while. 78 KE35 SR coupe paneled + painted in Stary Mica Blue (RX8 Mazda) Lowered all round cresida 10" vented disc /strut setup camber plates rebuilt rear suspension all new rubber seals/chrome on the car 17" Lenso RS5's Integra front + rear seats retrimed interior in black vinal 20v 4age turbo RWD fully rebuilt with 4agze oversized pistons 4agze rods polished/balanced crank skimed/polished block/bores head fully rebuilt with new everything ARP bolts threw out new oil/water pumps rebuilt/polished quad throttles polished alternator polished cam cover matching blue painted covers TRD metal headgasket full gasket kit threw out rebuilt t50 ae86 gearbox rebuilt starter ae86 A - K engine mounts t3/t4 turbo, fuel setup, intercooler, radiator, ecu etc was kept for another project. Motor was assembled an sloted into place, i did this 3weeks b4 i flew over to Perth to live. Car sat in the shed for a good 6mnths b4 some one made an offer to buy her, so i sold it as i didnt see myself coming back in the next 5 years to finishe her :bash: These are the only photos i have This is when it had a worked 4k in it, diff wheels etc
