Yeah I'll let him know. I didn't do the paint but I was there when it got done. Those wheels would be twice as cool if they weren't sportmax, but they'd still look heaps gnarly

I never really thought about it that much, I just figured if they make huge aftermarket ones then they must be for the win otherwise they wouldn't make them. Thanks for the heads up. And yeah i totally agree, FWD sucks butt.

"Overall, a stiffer rear sway takes out understeer, and a stiffer front sway puts in more understeer." So basically the front one is good enough just for fun and skids but a rear sway bar upgrade is the way to go?

"same with the tail lights cause I wouldn't mind getting some new ones" - KE70 tail lights don't fit, they're too wide from memory. This is my friends old car, good to see you've got some nice plans for it.

Dish rules!

Firstly, there is a search function at the top off the page in the tabs under the rollaclub banner, when you figure out how to use it it's great. This question is so redundant it's not even funny. Okay so basically the engine is an A series engine, therefor you need the parts out of an A series car to go with it, ie AE71, AE86 blah blah. I've never done the conversion myself, but I've read about it a fair bit, From what i can recall you need: - AE71 crossmember (bolts straight in apparently) - AE71 Pedal box (for hydro clutch) - RWD manifolds (or cut n shut, unless you can get your hands on a 4AGE already set up for RWD) - T50 gearbox (came in AE71, AE86, T18 from what I know, not sure if this bolts up to your K series gearbox crossmember) - Custom tailshaft to fit your standard diff, or do a diff swap I can't even remember, those would just be the main things there would be so many other small things to sort out like suspension and brake upgrade to pass engineering and so on, just read this: http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=5644

Keep the 5k, k series rules!

If it isn't one of the above issues it may be carbon build up on your pistons, which can cause your engine to run on after you turn it off because there is the tiniest amount of petrol left soaked into the carbon, doubt it would make it "shudder" much though. If you think this is the case you can get an additive for the petrol which will clean off the carbon.

Are you looking for an engine upgrade or just an engine? either way toyota 5K is the easiest and probably the cheapest other than the standard 4K. Unless it's a AE71, then you should either get the standard 4AC or go for a 4AGE as mentioned above ( Note: 4AGE for the mother flipping win)

You can get little coping saw things that have a coarse cable instead of a blade, no idea what they are called but they work great. I used one to cut my dash up for a headunit. You just have to drill a whole so you have somewhere to start cutting from, and you'd be able to get them from a hardware store for pretty cheap. Edit: Might be called a fret saw

Does Byron Bay count as "the area"? If so I'll get in on this group buy providing it actually goes ahead. woooo

what's wrong with a second hand one? doubt you'll find a new one anywhere

like "whoahhh!"
