Great work Stu.. King of KE10 rebuilds haha! looks fantastic. Have to check it out oneday!

Ok so a few more pics for you all Dads still hard at it even on this stinking hot Christmas eve coming along nicely merry chrissy to all :cool:

FFF yeah! I rate that! Would love bike carbies on my '10, But the price of some of them is enough to put me off :(

hi there all thanks for all your great comments i'm not to sure about the ke11 rebuild king but we have most things sorted out now and hopfully wont be to much longer of the road thanks Jordain.Hey Jono the bike carbys arn't that dear $400-$500 a set make your own manifold a few other bits and pieces :yes: and would be a lot cheaper than say a set of twin webbers or simalar.

 

Cheers:-Stuart.

I love how this car just keeps coming back better and better each time!

colour looks overrated, engine is old school on steroids, love the black chasers…

props to you for not allowing bad luck to put you down.

Soldier on!

Wow, that's quite a unique setup you have there, very cool!

Cool guys, great work As always

Hi there all havent been on for a while so i thought id bring you up to date.We ran the new motor in on the dyno friday night and it made just over 100rwhp but got valve bounce at 6thou revs :bash: and not got good cylinder comp >| so have pulled head of and going for more comp around 11-1 and heaver valve springs,our engine builder feels that there is still a lot more power to chase possibly another 10-15 rwhp which will be real nice.Drove the little rolla home on friday night and it was quite a toey little drive :yes: :yes: :yes:.I have sent the front coil springs back to Otomoto to change them from 6kg rating back to 4kg as it was still sitting way to high in the front end and way to stiff so thats about it for now until we get it back together. Thomas is looking at personalized number plates and likes VERSN-3 what you think :y: :n:.And another big thanks to Stu kickn5k for all your information and the genuine toyota 5k head gasket as i have said befor its member like you that make this forum work so well,so thanks again and we will be intouch.

 

Yours:- Stuart.

 

By the way have you had a look at our sheds :rocknroll: :rocknroll: :rocknroll:

Looks great! Happy to see it looking good again after the fire. My buddy lit his r100 on fire last year and he still hasn't got around to fixing it :/. I agree on putting the front spring rate back to 4kg, since you have a good sway bar on there. I'm running a heavier motor/trans (3TC) in my ke10 and I run 6kg on the track, and 4.5kg on the street, with a 17mm sway bar.

Hi there CanadianKE17 thanks for your kind words and information on the front spring ratings i wasnt shure if i was doing the right thing or not :hmm: so we will have to wait and see.Its been a full on last couple of months getting the little rolla back to where it is but hopfully wont be to much longer before it is fully finished and back on the road :dance: as the wife is starting to get a bit >| >| with sharing her car with Thomas :laff: :laff: :laff: well will thats about it for now, we will keep you all updated with the final progress as it happens.

 

yours:-Stuart.

Hey guys still waiting on a few things till we are back on the road looking for some opinions on some wheels that would suit the car I'm thinking of keeping the steelies but finding it hard to find any 15" with the right offset open for any advice thanks guys....

Hi guys just a quick update motor is back together and will be dyno tomorrow night.Starts a lot better with the reduction starter motor

Where hoping to get close to 120rwhp i'll try and get a video of it on the dyno for all to see. Still havent got new wheels yet so we will be running the old ones for hanging rock car show so hope to meet some of you there.

By the way did i mention we have ordered our HOIST :dance: :dance: :dance: pick it up when i go to Ballarat swap meet :yes: .

I will get Thomas to put some pictures up for you all to look at and pass judgment on :y: :y: :n: :n: .

 

Yours:- Stuart.

Hey guys have been very slack on the updates since getting the little rolla back on the road.... had a fair few issues on the dyno but got her all sorted and is running very well now we got 100rwhp so its a lot of fun to drive and gets me to uni and back quiet comfortable still havent given a shout out on here to me old man yet which he greatly deserves because without him it would not be back on the road better then ever so BIG thanks to Dad for all of his time and hard work!!!!! also a big thanks to stu (kickn5k) for all of his knowledge and advice anytime me old man got stuck... Dad was pretty stoked today because he finally got the hoist working in the shed and I had him put it to use straight away installing my new sway bar :)
