I Am So Evil
yes, but are you taking into account that most cars lose 1/3 of there power (flywheel) through the driveline? Realistic figures- Gen III - 300kw (top of the range) =200kw =320rwhp 3k - 77hp or roughly 48kw (top of the range) = 40kw = 64rwhp so if you take that into account, a top of the range Gen III has 5x the power of a 3k...

Shocked - Hot 4s

Buying Paint

Best Automotive Paint.
jesus, that paints schmick look, i know this is almost a completely different thing, but i've gained a bit of experience in painting pushbikes (i think i'm getting alright now :P ), and the cheap paints are shit and easy to get runs on. spend the money on getting the good paint unless your a bloody good sprayer. i use dupli-color, its in a can but i know you can get it in tins. make sure ur prep is good or it'll turn out shit, you wont notice the inperfections in the primer coat but they come out in the final coats. afterwards, enjoy ya work! ps. remember bog is your best friend

Ke30-35-50-55 Diff Ratios
checked both my rollas, and can't find where it says diff ratio, it just says 4spd manual on engine plate... on the sedan I think it is a jap diff (unbolts at back) any idea of what ratios it is? does anyone know which cars came with which diffs (pref. ke30 and ke55) and did ke70s share driveline with ke55s?

Super Jamie, you know that you have a serious problem? from now on, every off topic post you do will be 'dignified' with it being a sloganizer :D anyway, back to this...

Ke30-35-50-55 Diff Ratios
is there anyway that I can identify it from the outside? and what diff did the wagons come out with and panel vans?

Happy B-day To Our Fearless Leader

-
Ke30-35-50-55 Diff Ratios
how do I identify the Jap diffs (their respective ratios) and which cars would I find the shorter (4.5) ratios in? I'm sort of interested in a 81 Wagon (is that ke38?), but only if I found the 4.5 ratios in it? Would I find them in that? Also, what ratios did the ke36 (is that the wagon that was based on ke30?)
-
Wa Rides
yeah, i thought that would be the case. beware of an unlicensed 'project' in primer, its probably just had a bogjob over the rust on the panels... was skeptical... but yeah, anyway. have a good one!
