At least you will know the condition on the motor then! :( Cheers Leigh Totally agree!!! :) Welcome to rollaclub BTW Jack. Really doesn't cost much to rebiuld a k motor if you have a dad/uncle/mate etc handy with the spanners. Quote
tas_ae71 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Posted November 23, 2008 (edited) agreed to the above, if you can have it off the road for a few weeks for the rebuild.. buying a 2nd hand motor esp an old one like a 4k, is really a gamble. unless you can test drive it or see it running before removal. or if your paying like $0-50 like i do for 4ac, thrash them for 6-12months then when they pop replace them.. having said that i plan to rebuild one for a bit more punt :) 1 rebuilt motor for the price of 10 used motors haha.. prob last 4 times as long tho and make an extra 40% more power than a stock one.

Falken_KE30 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Posted November 23, 2008 also agree, I'm going to slowly rebuild the spare 4k i got for when the one in the Ksev gives up. On a side note I'm after 185/60/R13 tyres. need 4 with atleast 50% or more tread. Also after some chrome t18 bumpers, keen to have a crack at getting them on the Ksev :) Quote
tas_ae71 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Posted November 23, 2008 paint the standard ones with chrome effects paint from supercheap hahaha! Quote
