Ella Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Posted February 11, 2009 OMG someone has lifters for me, with these 5ks going back in tomorrow! Quote
Ella Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Posted February 11, 2009 whoo i has lifters now, see how i feel after work might put em in :wink: then the 5k goes back in :) Quote
Ella Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Posted February 15, 2009 Well the 5K motor is put all back together and is back in the car now But while doing up one of the bellhousing bolts i managed to slip off the bolt and smash my hand proper hard so no more working on it till the torn ligament is a bit less sore... Might do some more on the interior though, see how i feel tomorrow, pics to come. Quote
Ella Posted February 17, 2009 Author Report Posted February 17, 2009 hrmm well its all together, and after replacing a coil and then the fuel filter she runs again too... still rattle its head off at idle even with new lifters and the right head gasket... hrmm might be time to get a pro to look at it and diagnose my problemo. the rattle goes away once it gets some revs going, just at idle now, unlike before when it had a similar rattle through the whole rev range. anyone got any ideas? in the meantime ill start again on the interior and do the small rust repairs its requiring for rego.

love ke70 Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 i saw this parked on the service road a bit down from syds pie factory on saturday, thought it may ahve been flogged, looked like it had been dumped haha. had to go searching for the ride thread to see what was going on. was it running, or did you push it there? :lolcry: Quote
Ella Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Posted March 15, 2009 LOL well the truth is i had her running, got rego friday. but the f@$ken 5k self detructoed on the highway on my way to visit a mate down there... been like a blue assed fly all day today swapping the 4k in, which is done now :lolcry: Quote
Ella Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Posted March 15, 2009 yeah i know, pity about the nazi :lolcry: Quote
love ke70 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 lol, shame to hear. what happened to the 5k exactly. 4k swaps are easy :P good job on getting it all done and running in a day though :( nice looking car from the distance i saw it :y: Quote
rjenman Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 Hehe umm PM sent... as for colour choice... nah i LOVE the satin black right now the below car is my inspiration for satin black paint BTW tell me you don't love it as much as i do? i think ratting a newer car is hot, but in terms of an old corolla, its a cheap looking paintjob on a cheap looking car. but with the S15 its a cheap looking paintjob on an expensive car so its what some may call "gangsta" i'm pretty gangster myself really. wu tang.

Ella Posted March 17, 2009 Author Report Posted March 17, 2009 lol, shame to hear. what happened to the 5k exactly. 4k swaps are easy :P good job on getting it all done and running in a day though :( nice looking car from the distance i saw it :y: just suddenly simultaneously lost oil pressure and over heated :( then it wouldnt evven crank over. going to pull her down when i have a engine stand and have a good looksie... probably rebuild it myself once i have machining work done, should it need any. and yeah shes nice from a distance, going to keep the flames for now, its kind of grown as being the cars identity. anyone got a decent nick 4k they want to sell on the cheap? need a spare motor cause i want to enter the kalbar burnout competition :bash: Quote
SLW42 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 so your 5k is going again i see glad to hear it bud! 4k's arent hard to find man i have had like three different offers but i have settled on 1 finally lol should be fun doing skids in it haha should've left the seats and what not in the wrecked one and just skidded that haha just weld the diff and off ya go lol Quote
love ke70 Posted March 18, 2009 Report Posted March 18, 2009 whats cheap? ive got a very healthy 4k mated to a 4speed in a wagon that i don't really need. best 4k ive driven, apparently fresh rebuild, feels like it too, and the fuel economy of just under 7L/100km kicks arse :D I'm open to offers... id say you either lost all the oil, or the pump blew its own arse out. or the pressure relief valve got a bit lazy and stopped holding any pressure. causing it to get hot very quickly and seize...
