This thing looks great! My panelvan was Bamboo too, such a drab colour in my opinion, I'm looking at doing mine in Battleship grey with black accents. How's this coming along? - and to answer your question in my ke25 thread, I make the front spoilers for them.

Too late now but you should have gone te27 steering arms, really opens your options for front struts.

Installed my Trueno lights today

Selling my hatchback due to buying a house in the foreseeable future Genuine sale. Car is great mechanically, used as a highway car to drive to work and back. All log books and service history can be provided, no money owing. Detailed regularly, factory upgraded exhaust, Xenon headlights. Cruise etc.. 167,000 on the clock - Highway driving Car has various Car park Dints and scratches but presents well. $13, 800 ono, I will provide roadworthy. Front bar has a dint on the bottom left hand side- Wheel stop in car park had been damaged causing it to stick up waiting for unsuspecting prey (me) to fall victim to its trickery.

I Rebuilt a 3k from scratch everything new.. and of the few parts/gaskets that werent completely refurbished or replaced they shit themselves or leaked shortly after rebuild was complete.. used gasket goo etc.. for peace of mind especially if your going to push it i would hold back until you can get all new gaskets. Unless your HG is in really good condition I would opt for a new one.

Not going to cut the guards anymore... look at them they made it this far in perfect condition I'm not about to wreck them

Yeah I'm on the coast havent had her out for a while though. will be soon. Have been flat out for the last 4 months so not alot has been done on the 25 or the 26.. I did however find a coupe Deluxe badge and Trueno tail lights which I should have in a couple of weeks.. coming from overseas. Keen to see how she looks with the lights in.., From today

It will cost you far less to do a CA swap and will take less time and will be easier to put in. On the other hand you will make more horsepower with the Audi TTRS engine -Hope this helped

New rolling stock SSR MKII !! Making my own set of flares to put on to cover them. near future plans are 4x114.3 rear diff conversion for new wheels, TE27 Flares, Te27 Ducktail Spoiler, Trueno Tail lights. I've worked out that the engine cross member has moved across about 7mm causing the track and camber to be off so its going up on the hoist soon to get re aligned. now... My dilemma is I'm going to cut the guards for the flares and I want to carefully cut them out in 1 peice so if I want to in the future I can weld them back in and return it to no flares. What would your Tool of choice be to cut them out? Air hack saw? Looking forward to opinions cheers guys

I make those exact spoilers if your after one

Almost finished stripping the car down now, got a new radiator support panel and 4age conversion bits stockpiled.

Easiest way I found is to swap to TE27 steering arms which allows you to run AE86 Coilovers. You can buy these from a mob in the states called Techno Toy Tuning

ae71 is alot easier for a 4age converison i believe

Eagerly awaiting updates on this! Looking great by the way

I'm sure someone could give you a more educated answer but first thing that comes to my mind is.. why? toyoglide is revving its tits off at 110 kph. I wanted to do this with my 25 to keep it original with my rebuilt 3K but i just found a K50 and swapped it. best thing i could have done i think.

I'm dailying it to work but plans are to lift it 2 inches with some 31's and a canopy for the back. Shes one of the few that hasnt seen much 4wding and i think ill keep it that way, probably just stick to fire trails :)

Hi everyone, just after some help. I've cooked my 3K and most likely cracked the head. I have a spare 4K sitting around and the bottom end of the 3k was recently rebuilt so i don't want to get rid of that. My plan was to get the 4K head ported/ polished and decked and just bang it on once its ready. Seems like the only drawback ill have is a slight drop in compression? will there be any fitment issues? thanks in advance. ( Can't find any threads on this, only 3K on 4k blocks )

Ok so I restored this old girl 3 years ago. Made quite a few waves on the suzuki forums.. Was dailying her and was my only car at the time. Uncomfortable to say the least.. Great in moderation though, turns more heads than my 25. Ended up selling it and regretted it ever since. That was until I saw it up on gumtree a few days ago. He had people looking at it one after another, I just got the cash drove there and handed it over got the keys and drove home :D Specs are stock, 800cc 4 speed, Restored her to original. Using it as a parts car for the 26 panno I'll shut up now

Looking sweet!! Do you prefer the windows over windowless? What are the specs on your wheels and tyres?

update up top^

Yeah updates would be good on this

Yeah just do cardio more often

Hahahahaha!! Air brush skulls everywhere lol

Has anybody looked into removing the B pillar and customising it so the rear window can wind down? I thought that I might be able to use ke35 parts. Would it be possible to get it engineered? I'd love to have it all open like some of the bigger muscle cars.

I have 14x8 +11 with 195/45/14 on the back of my 25 and they sit nicely inline with standard guards. 14x7 on the front that fit with a bit of camber dialed in. I want to run 15x9.5 wheels once I have my te27 flares installed but I'm unsure on tyres because 195/50's would be too stretched. Anyone ran anything like this before?
