hey guys I'm new here and just brought myself a ke10 coupe for 500 bucks with a straight body and pretty much rust free now I'm rebuilding it from ground up practically it has a 4k auto but thats gone I'm thinking about working that motor but I'm looking at buying another ke10 coupe to put the motor and box in for my missus but the other ke10 has a 3k in it would the auto off the 4k bolt to the 3k is my first question.

 

now if i build the 4k I'm going to use gsxr 1000 or 1100 quad carby set up on it and take 20thou off the head and put a cam in it nothing massive just something fun and reliable. and a 4 speed or 5speed would be better ? any advice you guys have would be much appreciated.

 

cheers hop

It's not hard to think about it that a 5 speed would be betta mate.

Put the 4k/auto into the missus car, and whack a 5k in yours when i rebuilt my 3k and converted it to a manual i wished afterwards that i put a 5k in with a 5 speed.

obviously mate i ment over the auto sorry but i em wondering what 5 speeds will bolt to the 4k without much effort?

i thought about that idea but been told 5k's don't have a very good bottom end and a even worse top end now i don't know exactly if this is true as this is my first rolla build if anyone can shed light on this situation the would be great

Well its up to you do you wanna drive an auto or manul? and the 4k comes out with 4 and 5 speeds so I'm pretty sure that a 5 speed convertion will bolt on,, do what old mate sead put the auto in for the missis IMO

A 5K is basically a bored out version of the 4K, they're definitely an upgrade over the 4K. Corollas came out with a 5 speed, called a K50, but they were in the later model corollas and I'm not sure if they fit into KE10s. Hope I helped a bit, a toyota nerd on here will probably soon clarify this.
