nickyboy Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 (edited) Soooo i'm back in another ke20. Most of you know this car already. engine; Head slightly ported and polished, lumpy cam, extractors, lightened flywheel, new valves, springs, pistons. pretty much everything was freshened up, the effort gone into the engine is awesome and it shows when driven. since getting it i have had another muffler installed as it was way to loud, lowered it and as of today had whitewalls put on. interior is pretty much overrated bar the drivers seat, and it seems the carby is on its way out. looking to go some sought of weber or something to get that extra bit of power its lacking. any advice would be fantastic.

abbott Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 Whitewalls look the goods man. Didn't have them on this morning haha Quote
RA28GT Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 f@$k yes. Photoshoot with your current car and your previous corolla now. Quote
nickyboy Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Posted June 8, 2011 get the cruise going this weekend and we'll get some together :) Quote
Chobis Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 Shee-hat !!!! It was you. Pretty sure I saw this somewhere on Monday. Somewhere on Anzac I reckon. My gf saw it first and said "Ï think you would like that car". When I spotted it I said "sure do". Good work Nick! Quote
nickyboy Posted July 26, 2011 Author Report Posted July 26, 2011 hopefully my weekend will consist of these going on the 3k which will should result in some sexy time Quote
nickyboy Posted August 9, 2011 Author Report Posted August 9, 2011 ok so the Su's are now on, had a few issues with fuel pressure to start with but have now fixed all that. had to re route my fuel lines and mount a nice holley regulator on the firewall. i must say the car is now amazing to drive. goes bloody hard, will get a day light pic of the setup soon. hoping to get them properly tuned soon to get the most out of them and even a dyno to see what i am making Quote
KE ping it real Posted August 9, 2011 Report Posted August 9, 2011 Hey Mate your car looks awesome, any more detailed specs on the engine? I'm looking at building a similar spec 4k so just wondering what has worked for you Cheers - Andrew Quote
altezzaclub Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 OK, its been a month... where are the pictures and the dyno graph!! Are they running cleanly? Starting OK in the morning? Using less fuel?? Quote
nickyboy Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Posted September 13, 2011 woops. i sold this about a month ago. yeah got it running all sweet. used a holey fuel regulator on it and mounted that to the firewall. Heres the final pic of the engine bay, the morning starts was due to the battery being old so a new one fixed the morning issues. never got onto a dyno though, change of job location meant i had to sell it up. :( Quote
