If you were in brisbane i'd be there with bells on :D and will do with the updates

Did some test fitting tonight on radiators and intercoolers, i can even fit a 12" thermo fan in there, here are some pics

 

 

Here is the plate i made to convert the steering column from box to rack type

 

 

I need a stock KE20 bonnet latch mechanism, anyone?

Love your work mate :) can't wait to see this thing done, CRAZY is the best word to describe it i reckon.

nice tight fit, just how i like it.

 

I'm interested in how/where you plan to fit/run a dump pipe for the turbo/exhaust system?

This is great! have you seen www.1uzfe.com I'm guessing you have... I chatted (via email) with the guy about a year ago, when I had my 1uzfe powered Soarer. It's such a thorough build.

 

Wonder if you could shoe-horn one of these into a KE10?? :)

13BT_KE20 - it possible to clear the strut with a 3" dump, i have just enough room to squeeze a 4" pipe down the back of the engine so i am thinking of using a 3.5" dump, probably also going to cut and weld some 4" pipe into the strut tower to make a recess so the bend out of the turbo does not need to be so tight, i have about 1.5" of room inside the tower as the car has custom coilovers in it.

 

Dunadan - yep the flea website seems to be down? i have had a few KE10s engine bay is not so accomodating :)

looks like ill be talking to you more once i have the car running (not driving) :)

i am so jelous. i couldnt afford a mig so i bought myself a little oxy set to make myself feel better. love your work its going to be a quick little unit whenits done.

Brilliant!!! Nice work.

 

PM sent.

I haven't read all of page 1 & 2, (so sorry if you have already stated) are you building this for road use?? I wouldn't think it would be possible to get over the pits, not that that stops it getting on the road :)

It will look stock, could probably get away with it but its not really worth it, i have a 3rd ke20 that does road duties, 3k, toyoglide, feel the g's :(

Sounds like a smart plan. Are you going to keep all the road trim or lighten her up for drag duties?!

I'm glad to play a small part in this build :(

 

keep it up scott.
