Hey all, i bought this KE20 from a local forum member, I intend to restore it back to as close to original as possible. I repaired some rust and panel damage in the engine bay and have painted it D3 Bamboo, i sourced a stock 3k and toyoglide etc, good radiator and stock exhaust. Everything has been installed back in the engine bay as close as i can remember to where it would have originally been. I found a bonnet and guard from another forum member and now have the car on the road. It drives awesome and is even better on fuel. I will need to rebuild the brakes soon.

 

I have enough paint to do the entire car and i plan to gradually prep it panel for panel as i drive it to work during the day.

 

I did not get any pics of how it was but this is a pic used in the original 4 sale add.

 

 

And various pics of it up to its current state.

 

WoW, thats looking HOT!!

Good work mate, its looking good :bash:

Hell yeah. wish i could do my car projects that quick

2JZ KE20 is coming along slowly, i keep a log on my website http://www.oke020.com here are some pics. It looks pretty untidy at the moment but shes had some pretty extensive surgery :P

 

was it you who had the ta45 13bt ke20 that was on ar.com? or am I thinking of somebody else!

Yeah mate that was me i sold the entire old setup to a guy in QLD, decided to go in a piston direction :P

 

:P first "2jz Master" now you too!! whats next, pac gunna start building jz drag cars!!

 

So its still un tubbed then? whats the best the 13b ran, and how much quicker do you think the new set up will be?

i reckon that is the best car on this whole forum, tissues please.

with the 13b you mean, not the 2janker!! :P :D

hehe i loved the old 13b, that setup was finally sorted when i sold it, but it had bitten me and cost me a packet to get it there, the 13b would never have been able to make the power i need for my 1hp/kg goal

mate!!! 1hp/kg thats gonna be fully flippin sick

 

i must say I'm jealous

Any updates on this spastic KE20 2JZ?
