PHATKE11 Posted August 26, 2007 Report Posted August 26, 2007 Hi fellas, i've been a member of this website for a while now and have yet to really post anything so i thought i'd get off my arse and take a few shots of my slow going KE11 project. Stay tuned, more pics to follow........ This girl should be up and running for the All Jap Classic in a few weeks, fingers crossed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Quote

PHATKE11 Posted September 24, 2007 Author Report Posted September 24, 2007 Well i've nearly reached the completion stage and thought i'd share a few more photos. Few things to finish off such as battery stay, fuel lock, dash top (f@$king slow auto upholsters), kick down cable for the auto etc etc. Drove the car up and down the street today, little goer :P . Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Quote
KE30_KE35_KE55 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Posted September 24, 2007 looking good so far you should be proud. I am looking at doing a auto project ke30 soon too. Quote
camerondownunder88 Posted September 25, 2007 Report Posted September 25, 2007 Hi, One clean KE11 mate. Will be fun to drive in. But a few questions. Are you running a thermo fan by any chance as I can't see any sort of fan in your first engine bay pic? As I was curious to know if your running a thermo fan how have you rigged up your temp switch probe for it? Also the 2 filters on your rocker cover your using for pollution gear how do you think these will go in rego? And does the small electric fuel pump I spotted in the engine bay work a treat with the -B carby setup? I have thought about one of these for my KE15 but am undecided as I know carbys can be annoying to setup with electric fuel pumps. Cheers Cameron Quote

Cheers Cameron Hey cam, i am running a thermo fan (ICE Brand 12") in front of the radiator in push configuration. Not running a probe sensor, just got it on a remote switch though the ignition for the fan. As for the filters if you know the right people to do a roadworthy well then you've got no worries :) . Haven't had any dramas with running a electric pump so who ever told you its annoying they obviously don't know what they are talking about. Quote
