Ok after having a long discussion with my dad last night :rolls:

 

I started talking about how i want to build this special engine and dad said theres no need to!!!! Dad later on went to say that a standard 4k goes great in itself if u put a decent exhaust system and a carby upgrade she will go like a rocket ship!!! :lolcry, dad also said that he had a crowcam 606 cam in the shed which is apparently the second biggest cam u can get from them because the next one is a pure race cam :laff: so dad said if i put this cam in a 4k with a bit of head work like harder valve springs, seats etc etc the car will be exactly what u want and it will cost shit all :hmm: then i thought with a set of 40mm webbers on it this engine will be one sweet cheap engine that goes awesome!!!

 

I then asked dad what about suspension setup, he suggested that i use a cross member of a ke20 then make custom arms to suit etc etc if i do this dad said i would be able to use all front steering parts from ke20-ke50 basically and might be able to set the car up better :lolcry:

 

so in all i will have a car that goes f***ing good and it handles great!!!!!! :P

 

any tips or advice plz tell me????

 

see ya

I agree with you dad.. for the most part. Go with a K motor, pull it apart, try different ideas, have fun.

It will be a lot cheaper and as you'll find from people on this forum alone you can get moving with a K motor.

 

Get into it and keep the post updated :yes:
