yeh i was going to but I'm only allowed 2 engines in my shed at one time ans seen as the 2 guys that were supposed to pick up parts didn't show.

also i didnt have the money to buy the master cylinder

 

what are peoples opinions on the master cylinders on ebay?? i know their a cheap jobby but that really all i need as this engine only needs to last 2 years before a i get my 4agte possibly even 4agtte :P

 

oh and i have an update, when taking my old exhaust out i smashed it into my hydraulic brake line and upon inspection found out all my lines need replacing so i will have to buy a pipe bender and a shitload of pipes and redo my lines. i also might put in a bigger fuel line while I'm there.

 

so much to do :)

shopping list:

 

map sensor

coil and igniter

lift pump

efi pump [bought]

surge tank

brake lines

 

hopefully will have this thing running in a month

finished off putting the engine accessories onto the engine today, extractors, intake manifold and water pipes are now fully installed and almost ready to start filling the radiator.

put the splash guard back on after trimming away some metal for the 4age sump to fit

made my stock ke70 accelerator cable fit the 4age by cutting it down 450mm

+ 1 for putting in pedal box and clutch master while engine is out, wayyyy more room to work when drilling :)

 

Oh well, you win some you lose some, but in the end you live to fight another day :)

 

Good work son, keep it up and this thing will be going in no time :P

yeh i should have done it while engine was out but i couldnt because dad wanted the engines out of the shed, my 4K is now being sold in my 4 sale thread:)

 

decided on a colour yesterday, after 3 months of colour deliberation ive decided on blood red in deep gloss

 

yummy aye

[seabiscuit]

That's fukn shiny. Do you really think it will suit a KE70, though?

[trav_555]

That will certainly suit a ke70, sexy as mate :D

love the colour.... do it..

[kiahn]

grant scott and littleredspirit have both proven that red is a brilliant colour for E7's

i was kinda hoping to build a car that is good enough to be shown at car shows, my friend had his integra at an auto salon 4 years back

 

wont be painting it until ive repaid my parents and got my car fully licenced, that way when its painted i can take it out on a cruise straight away

 

cheers for the opinions on the colour

[Tume]

MATE! Thats the colour I've been looking for the code of for ages, what is the code for it do you know?

 

Agreed that its an awesome colour :D .

[kiahn]

not letting anyone know the colour I'm going for but it will be close to blood red

but start off with going to a paint shop and telling them you want something like blood red

 

when i think of my KE70 in this colour it makes me happy in my pants

lol

 

how many coats of gloss would i need to do to get it to look the same as that corolla?

YAY,,,

got the pedal box in (thanks twinkytodd)

because the box used an ae101 master cylinder there is no cutting the original clutch bracket

 

got the alternator mounted, modded a ke70 alternator bracket to fit :D

the starter motor is now in, after i refurbished it.

[nichy]

did you mod the ke70 pedal box ? or id you go ae71?

 

i have herd you can mod the ke70 one but be f@$ked if i can find out how ... please tell me !!! :P
