October 4, 201412 yr Author comment_689107 Anyone knows which car do these power fender mirrors belong to?? The guy at the wreckers said he thinks they are from a celica, but I feel he was just guessing. Any info would be appreciated. Report

Next time you go snap some pics. i love places like that. Thanks Very unlikely, as the coupe never made it to market here. Have seen only few coupes over the past few years. Met a guy with a coupe who was unable to find the side vents over the rear tires. Will go there tomorrow and try and take pics. Report
October 13, 201412 yr Author comment_689419 Upgraded my brakes to KE30. So now have 4x114.3 PCD all round. Changed the brake booster to KE70. Huge improvement in brakes from stock. This is one mod that I highly recommend to all stock KE20 owners. Brake needs a day or two to get used to, after that it's all fun. Cost of upgrades: $115 Report
November 30, 201411 yr Author comment_691378 Swapped my 3k and K40 gearbox with a 4K and K50. Put in a new head gasket while we were at it. Out In Not a very big change in power but reving is smoother and engine vibrations are down to minimum, and less problems with cold starts. Report
November 30, 201411 yr comment_691386 That's a nice change. Now you have a 3K head lying around to modify before you fit it on the 4K block to make it all faster! The K50 is that little bit better out on the highways. Report
