kickn5k Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 Any time Tommy!! Good to see you've got the hoist sorted. That swaybar will help heaps, best bang for buck mod I've done to my car. Stu. Quote
Jono.C Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 That as such a sight! Makes me so keen to get mine to the stage where i want it. I love this thing! and i'm not usually one for orange either but it looks so good on this! What's next from here? - Jono Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Posted April 29, 2012 (edited) Hi Jono thanks for your comments its just about all done now except for some decent wheels @ tyres and deck the boot out and get a final tune on the carbies which will hopfully push our rwhp up. We got one run on the dyno with 105rwhp but on the shoot out mode we only got a top reading of 99.5rwhp with printout a bit pissed that it didnt show the 100+. Anayway how long befor yours is up and going ? it is all looking good keep the great work up and all the best with it. Cheers:- Stuart (Thomas dad). Hi Stu once again thanks for all your help and i havent sent those front @ rear end measurment as i lost your email address so i will be in touch. Cheers:- Again Stuart.

Jono.C Posted April 29, 2012 Report Posted April 29, 2012 My white one goes already, just buying suspension bits for now, get that in and go from there.. The green one will resume whenever the white one's finished so that's a fair while off What's the prime objective for this? Just a quick streeter or looking to get it on the track/ strip? Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted April 29, 2012 Author Report Posted April 29, 2012 Hi Jono just a quick reliable streeter that suprises the crap out of the unexpected and it does just that! although i wouldnt mind seeing what it does down the quater but not before we sort the carbies out. Cheers:- Stuart. Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Posted October 6, 2012 (edited) Hi there everyone havent been on for a while now. Not much has changed except for getting a defect notice put on the car (rims,brakes,leaking axle seal) which is why i would like to ask all you other ke10/11 owners out there what wheels you are running on your cars (with pics please) in 14x114.3 as we have a disce brake rear end. i beleive we can run 14" with 65 series tyres as they don't increase the over all height by more than 15mm any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Tommys dad Stuart. Cheers. If you want to call me you can ring my mobile 0428 574248. Edited February 4, 2013 by TOMMYS Ke 11 Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted November 17, 2012 Author Report Posted November 17, 2012 (edited) Hi there every one just want to say a big thank you to Stu (kickn5k)for his nomination of Thomas little rolla for COTY.Just a bit of an update as where we are at the moment with the car as you may have read in an earlier post Thomas little rolla got a defect notice on it so we have currently got the car in the shed doing a few more mods such as a rear swaybar of a t18 which i have made brackets up to fit the ke11,and as the car never had any side body trims on it when we first got it Thomas has decided he would like to fit side trims to it so hopfully picking up a full set this week end. We also have his new wheels ordered and hopfully will be here this week 14x6 superlites black centre polished lip so i will probely have to pump the guards a bit and do a respray(thank f>"k i brought plenty of paint)thinking of fitting white wall flappers on it. I have been speeking with our engineer and as soon as i have the mods done we will be getting all the mods engineered so then when the so call powers to be (cops) want to use (as to there OPINION Thomas will be able to pull out the report and say read it and (f>"k off)not realy but show them that there OPINION is not always right. Any way thats about it for now so when the wheels are here i will get Thomas to put up some photos so i don't know weather this will be classified as version no4 for this little rolla but it is only getting better each time as Thomas drives this every day. Cheers:-Stuart. Edited December 1, 2012 by TOMMYS Ke 11 Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Posted November 18, 2012 Hi there all just a little update, picked up side mouldings today so we can add a bit of blingbling to the little rolla,i also got a spare pair of guards (not the best) just incase i have to pump the guards when the new wheels turn up. Although they may not be the best guards they are probaly in better condition than what the guards were in that are on the car so i think they will straighten up ok anyway i have put a few photos up of them and some of the rear swaybar i am setting up as well so i hope you all enjoy. Cheers:- Stuart. Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Report Posted November 23, 2012 Hi there everyone just a little update; my new wheels turned up today :yes: (superlites 14x6") should look real sweet with them on, hope to get them rapped in rubber tomorow and then i will know weather dad will have to pump the guards or not (he's hoping not but not very confident) any way i have put some photos up of the rims on the little beast for you all to have a look at and tell me what you think,and as soon as i rubber on them and all fitted up i will post some more photos. Cheers:- Tommy. Quote
glenpos Posted November 26, 2012 Report Posted November 26, 2012 just read your whole thread, this thing is awesome, sucks about that fire but now it looks even better :y: great work Quote
TOMMYS Ke 11 Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) Hi there Glen thanks for your great comments Thomas thinks his little rolla is awesome as well; it has taken a lot of time to get the little beast back to where it is but has all been well worth it(version no4 HaHa ;) )is on its way. Got the wheels back today rapped with GoodYear Assurance rubber;front 175-65r and rear 185-65r done a dummy fit and with a few mods to the front end looks like we can get them inside the guards without having to pump and repaint anything :hail: anyway as i said thanks for your great comments and as soon as we have every thing fitted up (Wheels, rear swaybar,side trims) we will put up some photos for you all to enjoy :dance: . Cheers:- Stuart (Tommys dad) Edited February 4, 2013 by TOMMYS Ke 11 Quote
