radrollaz Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) Hi guys, just a little update. Got the motor back in the car, its now 5 speed manuel and goes alot better than it ever did with the 2 speed toyoglide. Ive also got a set of 15inch r31 skyline chasers like i had on my old ke30, i welded the original toyota center cap mounting braket to the rim so i can run the original cap with the larger wheel ill be painting them up and fitting them on the car for ToyoFest. Enjoy the pics ! Edited September 2, 2011 by radrollaz 1 Quote

radrollaz Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Posted September 2, 2011 drop a sr20 into this one , so i can have someone to race with :) hahaha. Not sure what engine ill put in this one, ive got about 3 engines i would consider and the SR isnt one of them even though they are a great motor i want to do something really different with this one. BTW race Marty in his SR ke30 I'm sure he would be keen, are you planing on bringing your Ke20 to Toyofest Stas ? would be nice to finally see it mate.:y: Quote
Evan G Posted September 2, 2011 Report Posted September 2, 2011 fair effort! why does EVERYTHING need to be yellow?? if you don't mind me asking Quote
radrollaz Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Posted September 2, 2011 fair effort! why does EVERYTHING need to be yellow?? if you don't mind me asking All good mate I'm sticking to 3 primary colours with the car, Yellow obviously, black and silver. Theres a little white in there and the rest will be colour coded same as the car. I'm trying to go for an old skool hot rod look with the colour coded wheels. Trust me when its all together it will look good, i hope ! if not ill re paint them silver, fingers crossed. Quote
Evan G Posted September 2, 2011 Report Posted September 2, 2011 fair enough. are you gonna run portawalls? Quote
radrollaz Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Posted September 2, 2011 fair enough. are you gonna run portawalls? Yeah, I'm getting some white walls for it ! should brake it up a little. Quote
1JZ-Rolla Posted September 2, 2011 Report Posted September 2, 2011 Nice work there Mick. Is that a bead of sikaflex/urethane there in the seam of the steel rims? Good idea if it is, neatens them up, and no more channel to clean sh1t out of :) Interested to see how the colour coded wheels look on the car with the 'walls. Cheers Phil Quote

Cheers Phil Hi Phil, i thought id try and protect the wheels from rusting and collecting shit in that gap so yeah i put a little sikaflex in there as they were already starting to look crap, they were originaly powder coated by Marty as these are his old wheels and water would sit in the gap and rust stains would build up. The colour codeing was something i saw on a Old skool hot rod at summernats a few years ago and it was a similar colour so i thought id give it a go, hope it looks good when the white walls are on there with chrome caps and dress rims, see how we go. 4 weeks to ToyoFest, I'm excited. Hers's a few pics from todays efforts, cleaned out the interior of the car and pulled the sterio out and all the cables for it as they were run by a lazy installer and looked like shit under the carpet that you wont even see :hmm: but i can't help my self and I'm re doing it aswell as new carpet and sterio install in the boot. Ill keep you guys posted ! Quote
KE ping it real Posted September 3, 2011 Report Posted September 3, 2011 Hey Mick , it's looking great mate I see u decided on the yellow for the rims, will look good I reckon Keep those updates rolling in mate haha Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 Micky you are the master!! bro I had no idea you sold your beast…I hope you got what you wanted for it. The 2 door looks PHAT! loving the colour coding hot-rod thing you got going on… Spewing I will be away from sydney when ToyotaFest is on. Keep those pics pouring in! Mark Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 nice touch with the centre caps. Interested to see those wheels on the car, it could go either way i recon. Quote
radrollaz Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Posted September 4, 2011 Thanks for the feed back guys !
