Sim Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Posted January 1, 2008 thought i'd put this in here, thinking about offloading my KE20 daily, if i can find a suitable replacement. would love another KE26, whether it be a 2 or 4 door but failing that I'm chasing either a Mazda B1600 or '72 Ford Courier. heres a pic of mine if anyone is interested. not sure what it would be worth though..

Jono Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 probably worth between $1500 and $2500. Quote
Sim Posted January 1, 2008 Author Report Posted January 1, 2008 yeh i was thinkin around the 2.5-3k mark. haven't fully decided yet tho. tempted to go suss out this B1600 tho, somethin to tow the KE26 around with :dance:. Quote
radrollaz Posted January 1, 2008 Report Posted January 1, 2008 Hi Sim, love the Ke26 wagon and your work so far. My mate had one years ago and it was clean as and rust free we didn't know how rare they were and sold it for $600 :yes: any ways if your still keen to sell the seats let me know, I'm keen depending on price as i'd have to pay for postage to sydney. :y: Quote
Sim Posted January 12, 2008 Author Report Posted January 12, 2008 thanks mate, yeh i didn't kno how rare they where either until someone told me. ill be hanging onto it for awhile i think. ye I'm still wanting to get rid of the seats, turns out they are out of a Mazda Familia. not too sure how much to sell em for though. ill try get some better pics of them.

Sim Posted February 23, 2008 Author Report Posted February 23, 2008 havn't updated in awhile. motor is pretty much complete, scored some modified TA22 front struts to suit the wags. got some 4 piston RX7 calipers which i wuldn't mind using. just need a diff, wanting a luxy diff but finding it abit hard to track one down, not concerned whether its lsd or not, since ill be spooling it anyways. will post pics when i get some.

PMP020 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 i see u now own my old white ke20. has changed hands a few times in the last couple of years. u shouldnt have much trouble getting around the $2-2500 mark. any more picks of the wagon? i just like looking at them:) cheers, scott Quote
Sim Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Posted March 7, 2008 thanks for the comments mate, nah i haven't got any new pics of the car itself, hasn't changed since last pics lol. scored some modified TA22 celica struts for it tho and got some 4-pot rx7 calipers for it aswell which ill be chucking on. changing to ford stud pattern aswell. got my eye on a 9" diff on ebay which if it stays at a reasonable price ill nab. hav been looking for a luxy diff for awhile but hvn't had any luck and thought i'd just bite the bullet and go for the heavy artillery instead.

Sim Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Posted June 28, 2008 thought i should post something in here as i havnt updated in a while!! ordered afew bits n pieces yesterday, which should arrive next week. ill be in sydney all of next week for work so ill hav a nice suprise waiting for me when i get home. heres what iv ordered: Garrett T04Z BB turbo :D Turbosmart 50mm PowerGate wastegate Turbosmart 50mm RacePort BOV Turbosmart E-Boost 2 boost controller and a Turbo beanie, just cos they look cool lol, and help to stop the paint in the engine bay from melting aswell. Exedy 1-ton pressure plate PBR 4-puk brass button clutch Billet Flywheel its taken me a while to sort my **** but the lil pano is still alive and kicking :P, will get pics etc once all my stuff arrives. Quote
irokin Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 Any reason you went with a PBR brass button over the Exedy ceramic? Ive got an Exedy 5 puk ceramic, much nicer to drive than a brass button! Going to be a nuts car to drive lol...! Quote
Sim Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Posted June 28, 2008 no real reason, moreso just preference wise. i've driven a fair few brass clutch driven cars and i just love the way the drive. the car won't be seeing any traffic or be driven daily so I'm not too concerned about that :P. yeh it will be fun once it all comes together, aiming for 300+rwkw.

Doogs Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 Sweet as, keen to see some pics as it develops further. :P Quote
