    in regards to the tilt steering column... I worked with mechanic that told me he fitted a tilt column and it was either a toyota avensis or a kia carnval, did need to cut and weld and manufacture a shite load but he ended up with a steering column that tilted and extended in and out too!!!! I'll try and ask more people and see what I can find out. Just go to a rollaclub meet and ask the ioldest person there, usually they're more than happy to tell you how to "modernise" you lovely rolla... :P

  4. Complete 5K Conversion Walkthrough

    in Engine Conversions

    Posted

    Thank you so freaking much!!! My missus is getting her licence so unfortunately due to only two car rent limit she gets the KE70 as a day driver. ANd I'm driving a 180sx. However the ke is getting old in the motor and the missus has a driving skillset not warranting anything too powerful. But because I still drive the ke from time to time I'm gonna go 5k with added extras along the way, cam, flat pistons etc. I'll post photoss of the build up over the next 6 months then more photos of the engine going into the car.

  5. 4K Losing Water + Overheating, But How/ Where!?

    in KExx Corolla Discussion

    Posted

    Woah thanks for the replies, i just bought Gregory's manual from ebay, so i might have a go myself! I appreciate the help.

     

    Meanwhile, i have pulled out the front springs (chopped to the max!) and i found that my old Pulsar king springs were 5mm less in diameter to the standard Rolla springs so i threw them in. They seem to sit well in the spring housings but not "snug".

    is 5mm too big a difference? I am worried about the springs having space to move, is this going to be a problem or will i be better off with sketchy chopped standard springs?

     

    Before you go wasting time and money if it isn't head gasket, probably is though. Buy a $10 bottle of "seal-up" from Autobarn shake and pour, into the radiator and let it do it's shit. It chem welds a metal over small holes.

    I had the same on my 4kc in the ke70 and used seal up, fair enough not a "proper" job but freaking cheap in comparison. Within 5 minutes of putting seal up in the radiator already made a difference. Haven't needed to touch the radiator since, about 2 weeks so far. Temperature sits constantly on 1/3 unless out bush giving it stink. then it may go up a needle width.

     

    Just another suggestion mate.

  6. Best Engine For Ke70

    in Engine Conversions

    Posted

    A 3Turn RC motor has more grunt than my 4k did, but a set of extractors, lumpy cam, new head and a full port and polish including full balancing of everything. Makes a difference.... BUT like fcuk I'd spend the time and money doing that shit again. 4agze block with 20v 4a head and a t series turbo strapped replacing the SC. You want power grab an IS300 lexus and turbo charge the 2jz.

    Its an Origin Lab kit on my black car, personally ive grown out of that car. I'm now making one with a JDM style look for it.

     

    Sr20det would be better if you can easy engineer it and fit it easily. Its way lighter, easier to find as they came turbo from factory, a 4age didnt, cheap as chips, and great power can be had from them.

     

    I'm not a fan of the whole keep it Toyota and toyota only thing, do it right and make it perform, no matter what engine it is, so long as its puts down the times the numbers and suits the car enough, ie not a v8 corolla for a daily, its all good, you can even use an s13 crossmember I think, ive seen that done for a ca powered drift ke70 on ke70.com

     

    It will cost you a shipload more to do a 4agte in my opinion.

     

    Travis.

     

    I found a performance engineering firm and gonna do a complete overhaul of the 4K maybe add a turbo later?? F^&*ed if I know to be honest...

    in Engine Conversions

    Posted

    So I managed to find a new 3sge Beams from the US relatively well priced... Now I need to ask the obvious question, will it fit into an 83 ke70 or am I wasting my time? I have access to a good mechanic and hoists etc, I need it LEGAL too...

     

    Any suggestions/ comments??

     

    Here's what I want in it..

    guys i'm heading there same time tomorrow nite, 7:00pm meet at Hungry Jacks Cnr Kessels Rd and Orange Grove Rd, then 7:30pm convoy to Munchies...

     

    PM me if you want mobile contact details etc, Silly cars too guys, f*&K anything to stick it to the boys.

     

    (For those of you left out of the loop, myself and SLY70 showed a fortnight ago, and were shunned for owning "4 banger Shite". I say stuff 'em we have a right to own rollas as much as they have to own bommadores.)

    yay someone else that agrees!! There's a club called "damage" that has everything from s13 silvias to old skool drift, they're happy for us to branch onto them for extra numbers if needed, so rolla drivers don't feel threatened, there are other people that genuinely wanna see some nice rollas at munchies...

    Looks good man, plans for an engine conversion?

     

    Travis.

     

     

    Yeah man, mate of mine's got a T something diff in Lismore so i'll pick that up next friday. Then Konig Rewinds or Superlites, lowered springs....

     

    I've found a guy that'll import 4AGE 20v half cut for me, it'll cost around the 2-2.5K mark, and my mate's a mechanic and he'll help me put it in. After that, 4AGZE pistons, cam gears, quad throttle bodies, and an aftermarket ECU, don't know what computer yet...

     

    But there's also an SR20DET that my mate planned to put in his Gemini and he munted it, so he has a SR20DEt with under 80K on the clock sitting there....

     

    What would you do??? 4AGE Turbo or SR20DET???

     

    I'd kinda like to keep the rolla Toyota 100%

    Hey mate, I'd love to but I wont have a drivable rolla for a while :y:

     

    JiP I have spare seats if you wanna get picked up... I just wanna get to know some of the rolla owners around Brisbane area. Also I have contacts out at QR and Archerfield might be able to score a reduced rate for a track day event, just rollas etc...

     

    Come on people, if I have to park my rolla in the middle of the commodore club again, i'm gonna get my ass kicked!! Need some rollas!!

     

    PLEASE!!

    Hey people,

     

    I may be a noob at this forum but i noticed there was a call for numbers to munchies back in april, and the numbers were a little low..

    Just wondering is anyone interested in getting there tomorrow nite?? I've done some foto shoots for brisbane commodore club and custom commodores, so it'd be awesome to have more rides beside my 83 KE70, and get some pictures...

     

    Let me know

    As Ibought her for $350 from this dude in Ipswich, Had shagged suspension and rust in the boot. Rust has been cut out and plated, and i fit Monroe GT gas struts in the front.

    About to get dropped on lowered falcon springs rear and commodore springs front. And trying to decide between konig rewinds/ superlites, or five point challenger rims.. Any suggestions??

     

    I'll post up some new pics soon, it's now got a black bonnet, and soon will be two-tone from the door handles up black and silver underneath.

     

    Keen to meet up with anyone from the Brisbane area to do photshoots etc, and cruises... But I'll look in the event calendar...

     

    PS anyone that knows what munchies is?? I'll be there on friday night.
