Hi,

 

My name is Dave and this is basically my first post on Rollaclub,

 

 

This is my new KE30 :cool: , I've been after this exact one for a while actually, when I found Towe was selling it I really wanted to buy it but before I could come up with funds NerfBat had already taken ownership, NerfBat had to move it on so I am now able to finally call this awesome little car my own. For the money I paid its one hell of a car, kudos to Nerfbat,Towes and who ever else has owned this car at one point or another beause its a neat little thing.

 

5K motor

Mod Plate for 5K

Extractors

2 inch exhaust system

ke70 5 speed box

4K lightened flywheel

Mix of Clutch Industries clutch plate and Exedy pressure plate

T-18 front struts

Noltec and Nolathane bushes through out

Rear Venetian

Dash High Watt LED's

Semi Sealed Headlights

New radiator

Autotechnica Steering Wheel

Headunit

Gauges (Water Temp,Volt,Oil Pressure) (Unwired)

 

 

Basically the plans for it is to be a nice old daily driver.

 

Short Term Goals

- Roadworthy - Done

- Registration - Done

- Transfer my PPQ Plates or buy another set

- Start fixing surface rust - Started

- Hook up the headunit - Done

- Hook up the aftermarket Gauges

 

Long Term Goals

- Basically get rid of all/most rust

- Respray in original White

- Maybe A bigger cam/other engine work :hmm: - Looking into these now

- Maybe mags in 14 or 15inch with nice width and offset (nothing to crazy)

 

 

Only thing i have currently done was give it a quick over with some polish to see how well it would come up, I need to find some sort of polish for the chrome parts if anyone could give me some information/tips as i've never owned a car with chrome before :laff:

 

 

 

Thanks for Looking/Reading,

 

Dave

I did love this car after reading towe's thread. Look after her!

 

Autosol has good reports with polishing up chrome :D

Gday Dave, good buy on the '30, we all hope it is in good hands. You are on Ramsay st right? Looked familiar. Plans for it sound good, best of luck with it! Luke.

Not my house, just keeping her in the shed at my grandparents place while I get it regoed, Are you the Luke who has taken Zowie's Pannelvan? If so I'd love to see more pictures of it.

 

Yeah the little thing will be in good hands, not going to do anything crazy on her, just get her back to showroom condition (Hopefully).

 

Thanks,

Dave

Yeah mate, the same Luke. I used to live next door to Zowie, he is a great bloke. I don't want to start another rides thread on her, I'm keeping it to myself for now. But if you look a "Mason"s old thread there is heaps of pics of it, also Zowies thread. Cheers, Luke.

heya mate,

i had a good feeling when you and your pop's turned up, it wouldnt have been choppped, sticker slapped or any other crazy thing..!

its why i let the car choose you over those other 'special people' who turned up, while you guys were checking her out :-P

i feel its gone to good hands,

all the best with it mate.

make use of the FAQ's and the search feature, so you don't get punished like a lot of 'new to the forum' people do, and enjoy your stay here :-)

Thanks Zowie,

 

Hopefully I can meet a few more Toowoomba Locals too, maybe go for a cruise somewhere. Itching to get her on the road, hopefully will get a roadworthy this week or next.

Nice score dude it's a cool little rig

Sorry! I forgot to say thanks about the Autosol and that you like the car :)

Yeah it really is! It might not be the cleanest or fastest Ke30 but I can't help but look at it and admire it. Want to run over to my grandparents and start it up and look at it all the time. (I think it sounds awesome heh :lolcry: ) I'd like to put one of those cams that Zowie & Luke put in the Panelvan, though it would be way to crazy for daily duties.

 

Thanks,

Dave

Keeping an eye on this thread :P

 

Glad she's gone to another good home :2thumbs:

Should be getting a Roadworthy next week at work, will update most likely then.

 

Going to give the engine bay a clean on the weekend and have a look at the suspension/brakes etc.

 

Also Towe,

 

Plan on selling any spare parts that you had in your older posts? Specificly looking for the Badges and the strips around the doors.

 

Thanks,

Dave

I have a crap load of stuff that i need to shift.

I'd have to have a dig around everything to see what badges i have, but i don't have the strips apart from the chrome strips that go on the sills below the doors.

Yeah,

 

That's my grandparents place, don't know how you could live on that street with hoons going past all night :no2:

 

Would be interested in the above maybe even 5k parts in the next couple of weeks..

 

Thanks,

Dave

Don't have much 5k stuff. Just the flywheel, a carby, its hat thing so the filter can be placed elsewhere and a brand new head gasket (and a 4k gasket kit).

 

Yep, and most of those hoons are at the other end of the street.

They love it up and down Hume st. Used to see them all the time, like our good mate with the red '70 :angrybird:. Never mind.
