Mr_1200 Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) Hey guys, Finally finished doing up my little ke11 Sl. I think it came out pretty damn nicely. Has roll cage, ke30 discs (split system brakes), rx7 front strut inserts 12' wheels (buying some 13 or 14' superlites) Motor is a full house 3k. Has a huge cam, bigport head (not ported), twin 40mm webbers blueprint and balanced bottom end, datsun double valves springs, stainless valves, forged pistons, forged rods, revs to 10000rpm makes power at 4500rpm. 3 core rad re trimmed interior, heaps more but i don't have the list infront of me but its basically a full rebuild. The car was built for historic group n but probably wil only see sprints and regularity came out to good to crash or get crashed into. pics of the car i have when doing the final touches. don't have any more pics yet but will have soon. enjoy...... http://img182.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ke1105qm5.jpg http://img245.imageshack.us/my.php?image=forsale005sg5.jpg http://img245.imageshack.us/my.php?image=forsale003ma6.jpg http://img183.imageshack.us/my.php?image=grantke11fo4.jpg Interior Crappy shot but u get the drift http://img72.imageshack.us/my.php?image=svi0066ot8.jpg Edited May 5, 2007 by Mr_1200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_1200 Posted May 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) I had the pistions made custom made by ACL i think it was ill dig up the reciept it was ages ago i got the motor built. And the double valve springs were from a 1600 rally car. I might have a reciept for it to. ill go for a hunt in the shed and get back to you.

Felix Posted May 5, 2007 Report Share Posted May 5, 2007 Nice car that one. Thats Barry Pitts old car. I saw it several years ago at the All Toyota Day, was immaculate then. Good to see it has finally got the motor it deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_1200 Posted May 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Well funny story that.... i went and bought Barrys car probably 5 to 6 years ago now.... i drove to my 1st day at work (electronics tech) and i meet James Pitt... Barrys son. Jimmy goes hey my dads car is here why did he come to see me. I'm like thats my new car are you Barrys son. Hes like yeah... haha so very small world... I had it for about 4 months when 3 bolts in the front strut where it joins the knuckle had broken.... No idea how this happend but at 100km/h and having to brake heavily the strut slipped out of the knunckle in doing so let the wheel crunch the drivers side guard!! so i basically had to drag the car off the road. No real damaged other than the front guard and the 3 bolts in the strut (THANK GOD). This then turned into the labour of love that you now see before you. I had to source new guards found a new bonnet as i was never happy with it even barry had probs with it cracking the paint in the middle where the hump is no idea why although the previous bonnet had been pannel beaten a fair bit. I rewired alot of it. Added braided lines for the front brakes etc and heaps of other finishig off work that the car deserved (motor etc). I just chugged along fixing all the things i wanted to change on the car. So the car from when he rebuilt it has only done about 3000 miles in 5 to 6 years LOL. I intend to make it get around so more. But still keep her origydig for the old owner. i regulary have chats with him and son informing of how the old girl is still going. He wanted to see it on the race track and i know he attends to go to this years historic meet in august/june at queensland raceway... he may just get a suprise seeing the old beasty on the track.
