Hi guys i recently sold my Legnum VR4 twin turbo V6 wags blah blah blah. Got over it to be honest. I have been wanting a ke20 corolla for the most part of life :blinks: just never got around to it... Till the perfect one came up, its had all the major work done :blinks:

 

there are still a few bits and pieces that need to be done, such as the roof lining, the guy i bought it off told me that all i need to do is take it to someone to have it done, but I'm insure if it needs an insert or not before putting the lining on :blinks: so if someone could please clarify this that would be great. It also needs to have the parcel shelf done and maybe another few bits and pieces.

 

I also need to get side mirrors but i have found plenty on ebay and I'm sure the wreckers would have something as well :blinks:

 

pictures to come but it has been paid for and now i need to get it from sydney to vic so I am sorting that out now :blinks:

 

I can't wait to get this on the road and see peoples reactions to me driving it around... the legnum was great, but you can never beat a classic and ke20's seem to be getting rarer :y: which is a good thing for us

 

so this is the start of what I have been wanting since i was 15 :blinks:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:happy: :yes: :huh:

Sounds good mate, keen to see the pics.

What are your plans for the driveline ?

Standard cruiser, worked K motor, or something more serious ?

Cheers,

Dougal

The 5k sounds like a good option. A Subaru boxer conversion would be quite a big job...

a big job but it would be worth it and amazing :happy: hahahahaha

 

but its prob something i wont do just something i would love to do hahaha

 

Yea i need to research what i can do with the ol' 5k :yes:

Keep the 5k, k series rules!

Yea nah I'm going to be sticking with the 5k for now, prob work it for all it can :yes:

- change wheel hubs, for wider range of wheels =]

- getting a turbo setup through a ballarat joint on the 5k (for now)

- rotary setup

Bloody tidy looking rolla mate, love the body work and interior :lol:

thanks mate, I'm really happy with her, she is really doing well by me

did you by any chance get this thing off ebay cause i remember seeing one excatly the same nice buy tho

or was it on here lol

Edited June 27, 201016 yr by Undertaker_is_the_best

it was on ebay which is where i got it from but it was also on here as well as i found out after i bought it haha

Ok guys here is an update

 

buying a IHI vf3 turbo off of a guy at work for my ke20, got a mechanic in ballarat who is going to assist me with the setup. So we will see how it goes. I'm going to be keeping the twin webbers and so on

 

Now the question is should i do any headwork or piston work before i starting setting up the turbo (also i know minimal details with cars)

 

all opinions and help apreciated
