rke_011 Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) Hey all, I just recently re purchased my old ke10. i owned it a fair few years ago, i bought it as a green running/registered car. Then Painted it matt black. Then got bored of it a bought a turbo corona and let it sit around for a year or so. Fit a 4age in its engine bay but never got it running. then i sold it... LINK :How i sold it.. Now i bought it back, its a little more stripped to how i sold it.. and has a few less parts to when i sold it... I believe its been through about 3 other owners since me, but never registered under another persons name. This is how i got it back! But all in good time :) Edited July 28, 2011 by rke_011 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roladude Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 The mazda metro looks pretty tough. Good luck with reviving the KE10. Another old rolla being saved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rke_011 Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 found pictures of how it used to look.. and bought myself this turbo setup that seems to do the rounds on here.. i just need a motor and box so i can put the motor in so i don't have to keep pushing it when i need to move it.

rke_011 Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Got 5k and ke70 4 speed (for now).. and also purchased a new inlet manifold so it can be injected rather than a draw through carb setup.. still need 202 lifters/a12 rods/4k head and cam :( AND A WHOLE LOT OF BODY WORK... bye bye carb hello EFI :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jono.C Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Does that SU setup point the turbo toward the firewall..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rke_011 Posted July 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Its a custom manifold. Not just mounted from standard manifold. Turbo faces firewall and su faces forward. But not using Carb anyways.. 5k wont be over the top. Just doin 4k head. Different pistons. Cam etc. Not trying to make a race car.. just a nice streeter.. unsure what Turbo is. I was told it is n12 pulsar but front looks like possibly t3. Rear may be t2 and it has apparently been high flowed. If I can make the rolla keep up with traffic ill be happy.

Taz_Rx Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Looks like it's all 1 piece! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rke_011 Posted July 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Sure is. But can be chopped.. may end up selling it all except Turbo anyways because Turbo manifold won't fit with Injection manifold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
