towe001 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Posted February 3, 2012 Don't be dissing on tofu racers Towe... :P I was one of those tofu racers..... Quote
Stenzel Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Ca18's get a bad rap, But i love them! Everyone goes "oh, they'll blow up just get an sr20 bro" Once you put ARP head studs in them and sensible mods they love life! A friends brother has one in his 720 ute, 16psi on stock internals, exty gate, fmic, haltech etc has been thrashed, literally everyday for almost 3 years and it's still together! Meanwhile, sr's... :rolls: Exactly, My mate has pretty much everything you listed, except a microtech (:P) which also gets a bad rap. Been boosted on 13psi+ can't think of the turbo ATM and is fine. We have had a few problems with the tune though but it is going to be booked into T.A.S after his holidays to get it fully sorted. Though there is a 4age at the gold coast for sale which I am tempted about,... And sorry Keiran, Zowie already got in :) I do have some other parts, I feel sort of bad selling them as I got them with the car from Zowie, but I have spae difs, few seats etc if you need them Keiran. Sorry I didn't get a chance to come down and see you. Edited February 4, 2012 by Stenzel Quote
nerfbat Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Sorry too Keiran, but it is needed by me, too. and Dave don't feel bad about selling stuff, when i sell something and thrown in all the gear, that gear is then yours :-) sell it, help fund the conversion Quote
Stenzel Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Posted February 4, 2012 I am actually going to go look at a sr20det right now, so might be another sr20 powered ke30 :lolcry: Quote
towe001 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Urm, p-plate You won't be able to do it till your on your opens. Same with boosting the motor. You can open the motor up and mod it, but you wouldn't be able to swap in a different motor. Quote
Stenzel Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Posted February 4, 2012 Apprentice mechanic, I have an exemption, a normal p plater can;t even drive a 5k legally.. Quote
