Best K Motor To Suit Ke10?

[rke_011]

Hey, I'm getting another ke10..

i currently own a rotor ke11 but i want to build more of a daily ke10..

 

just wondering some peoples opinions of getting some decent hp from a k? and what model K would be best suited..

 

i don't know if i should supercharge or turbo and just run low boost or maybe a tough little motor..

 

is gonna be on a low budget and doesnt need to be a race car, just a bit of fun..

 

cheers.

I know it's not a K motor. But, what could be an option is what i did. I got a 3tc and box and everything for $100 off a mate and put it in a ke70 for under $150. It went really hard and was suprisingly good on fuel. So imagine what that would do in a ke10 :dance:

trying to keep this one a little more legal..

 

wonder how hard it is to build a decent na k motor..

 

wonder if a 4k with 3k head and cam and carbs or something..

 

i dunno :P spose i should actually pick up the car before i get too excited..

go 5k ftw! decent cam and little bit of head work would make it fun to drive :D

^^^^^^

second that - similar set up to my old KE20 and that was lotsa fun

[rke_011]

would 5k with 4k/3k head raise comp? i also got a single solex from a 2tg here wonder if thatl work..

 

i just remember the last Ke10 i had when it was standard it was poo.. and i can't do that again.

[Evan G]

5k block with a 3/4k head will lower the compression. don't worrie about swapping heads just shave the 5k one to a suitable compression ratio

[rke_011]

lower? ;) enough to turb or supercharge???

[Evan G]

taz_rx is running a 5k with a 3kbp head with some stupid stupid amount of boost.

 

its a daily got get too carried away

[rke_011]

yeah, i got a wrx as a daily too..

 

but i prefer ke10's so ill sit the rexy in shed and drive ke :)

[Evan G]

ahahhaha still got the ke10 with the boat motor?

[rke_011]

yeah, still got the boat motored rolla.. its registered at the moment... but never driver it.. don't wanna get pulled over.

 

so i gots to build a fun daily ke10 coz i want something i can drive..

A K motor is a beginners motor. Keep it simple. Mixing motors leads to arse pain unless you know what your doing.

5k + 3/4k head + mild cam + draw-through supercharger OR simple j-pipe blow-through turbo setup.

 

Actually, pull that turbo off your WRX and fit it up to a 5k. I used to run a TD04-L and it was sooo perfectly suited, bugger allo lag but still really good top end. :yes:

 

In a KE10 you'll lunch any bogan in his commonwhore, hell you'll give mildish VLT's a run for their money!!! :jamie:

pull the wrx turbo off? and have a non turbo wrx? then it would be even more boring than it is. My rexy has a td05 so maybe a bit big.

 

out of curiosity with a dodgy turbo setup blow through with a dodgy j pipe does it actually make a decent power increase?

 

 

I'm thinking cheap turbo setup would be cheaper than s/c.. so ill probably go 5k turbo just for a bit of a laugh...

 

depends what bits i have laying around at the time or what bits i can find stupidly cheap..
