SLO-030 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Posted May 28, 2011 Sounds like you got it all planned out Jono. can't wait till the engine/suspension side of things kicks off :dance: Quote
Jono.C Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Posted May 28, 2011 Cheers Ryan, Yeah it's a shame it's un-regoed as i have to spent time and money fixing/ replacing parts that'll be pulled off to make way for the 4age and suspension. My main focus as i said is the body at this stage, having to spend 50~ hours on a guard is mental as i don't have access to another pair, and all this is being done around the weather as there is no shed at my place :/ Hoping to have the body ready for paint by July and sprayed by August so i can the do the interior, tidy up some things and send it off for inspection. Then the fun begins. :) Quote
Jono.C Posted May 29, 2011 Author Report Posted May 29, 2011 So i was going through my stuff today looking for a part and discovered someone's stepped on and bent my grill. Really pissed off about that. Quote
Jono.C Posted May 29, 2011 Author Report Posted May 29, 2011 Nah the actual ke10 jailbar one, spent ages polishing it, it was dead straight and overrated chrome and now it's fecked.. Quote
Jono.C Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Posted May 31, 2011 Wanting peoples thoughts and opinions. K series turbo vs 4agte K series pro's - Already in car, Cheap motors, Looks stock-ish. K series cons - Cost/ availability of a 5k + efi gear + manifolds being made and less potential than a 4agte A series pro's - Low km newer motors, already efi, parts for turbo conversion readily available, more potential for power A series cons - Fitting to car (mounts/ rwd conversion etc) full fuel system plus tailshaft etc etc Anyone have an opinion?

Evan G Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 go angry VERY ANGRY 5k! cam,side draughts,tons of head work,monster compression and 8000rpm redline. 1 Quote
abbott Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 Well as it seems to be a common thing to be boosting k motors lately and as said earlier in thread you wanna be different I say go 4age! Just my opinion Quote
Jono.C Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Posted May 31, 2011 The way I'm thinking at the moment, the newer better designed 4age seems worth me fabbing mounts and tail shaft and modding a diff for Quote
Jono.C Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Posted May 31, 2011 I know you can get 160rwkw from a 4agze with a t25 on 9.5psi.. I'd be using a GT28.. :P Quote
abbott Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 Exactly and try making 160 at wheels from a k engine haha Quote
Jono.C Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Posted May 31, 2011 Supposedly you can get 150rwkw's from one but not much more because of the head, but i reakon it'd cost 3 time over what the 4agte would.. I noticed your a soon to be ke1X owner, specs/ pics of yours? :D Quote
abbott Posted May 31, 2011 Report Posted May 31, 2011 Yeah no joke. Aha all in good time mate sorting out the final details now but n Quote
