JamesCollins97 Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Hey guys ive been reading through all the forums loking at all your engine swaps, I love my ke55 but the motor has shat it self bent 2 rods and snapped 1 would It be better to rebuild the top end and where do I get the parts if so ? Also would it be better to replace the motor if so what is the best and cheapest ? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanical Sympathy Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Cheapest and easiest is to replace like for like! A decent running 4K can be had for beer money from a motivated seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesCollins97 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 That's the thing a decent running one ishard to find at a good price before someone else snatches up the good deal ! I love my ke55i just want it back on the road now, very impatient as its been of the road for 6 months :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 They're lying in the grass at the Woolshed at Walcha... (some assembly may be required !) Decide how far you want to drive to get one & PM Insanity. We must have 6 or 7 up there we will never use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanical Sympathy Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 All the KE kids are wheeling and dealing on the Corolla-flavoured Facebook pages these days, rather than here on Rollaclub.com Add yourself to KE55/KE30 Corolla Owners, E Chassis sales and Rollclub.com Facebook pages and post a WTB ad for a 4K and you'll have one by the weekend. Be sure to mention where you are located! This would be the fastest way to get on the road again IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
