  1. this may have been covered before but search didn't bring up the info i wanted

    i have a KE35/55 hardtop corolla and am looking at running a fully worked sr20det in it and wondering what diff and brake setups people have run any help on setup's are greatly apprciated thanks guys

  2. The 911 is the quickest on acceleration and top speed although I've not pushed past 160.... not sure why I never drove it on many straight roads haha. It got there quick though.

     

    My ca18 turbo bluebird was also devilishly quick too.

     

    My ke is punchy but also feels twice as fast than it really is.

     

    Cue Trev with entertaining commentary on K motors!

     

    was yours a twin turbo there even bloody faster wish i still had mine but someone else thought they liked it more flat black porsche looks the goods

  3. well i'm just thinking i might go aussie cause at least they arn't up themselves like you jap enthusiasts with your whipper snipper oversized milo tin exhuasts that always seem to hav to hav negative responses to general questions i just wanted to know what these have currently been going for so go f@$k yourselfs no wonder everyone pays out jap import people

  4. don't disappear this time

    ok i have a KE35 hardtop with enough parts from three corollas to make a very good one most of the rust issues with the KE35 have been fixed car is just about ready for paint and am thinking of SELLING IT and wondering what it might be worth as an unfinished project as i need to get other things done and just wondering which project car should go to give me some funds would it be worth finishing the corolla or selling as unfinished project

  5. Hi,

    Good price for setup. Fairly complete. Linkages are the rarest part on these. Great score :) What swap meet was this one you also speak of?

     

    As for your set you have late-model one out of a KE3X or KE50 coupe. You can tell as your carby has hot idle devices, fuel inlet for carbies is a metal line that screws in. Early carbies had a rubber hose barb adn a last chance fine filter that is replaceable.

     

    Also the manifold at the rear has a hose line for brakes. Early manifolds had a plug in here. Your setup is the same as one of my late setups sourced from a KE50.

     

    Very easy to fit to all KE models but.

     

    One thing your set has going for them is you have the better throttle cable setup. Much better than early one.

     

    Also I can tell you know you will have trouble sourcing needle and seats for the twin setups. They are slightly different to single carbies and the rebuild kits don't come with the right ones. Well all the kits I have used so treat the needle and seats well.

     

    Cheers
