Jono.C Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) I kinda toyed with the idea of a 1uz in the green one for like an hour.. then I realised I'm not a retard. Hahah Edited October 9, 2012 by Jono.C Quote
It's_AUDM_Yo Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Where would it fit? on the roof? Quote
rian Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) Pffft a Toyota V8 would be shit, you need to put a Commodore V8 in it for ultimate burnout capabilities, everyone loves burnouts and you would get maximum respect. Besides, burnouts are the only reason people build cars, no one cares about handling or performance or any of that shit, just rip a ʞ©$ɟen skid brah. lolololololololololololololololololol Edit: That post just made me realise how much I hate the word "brah". Why can't people say "bro" properly?? Edited October 9, 2012 by rian Quote
Jordain Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Also how it looks currently.. What happened to the old bonnet and all the original trim rings and stuff.. the First picture it looked so overrated now it looks... wrecked lol... I hope your painting the bonnet soon haha. Quote
Jono.C Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) Haha yeah man, as i said, The white bonnet's very rusted and there's lots of dents you can't see in photo's, so i'm in the process of fixing it and respraying it. i HATE the black bonnet but it's just a junker to keep the rain out.

kickn5k Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 I think it looks boss Me too!! But it really needs two things to finish it off. It needs a set of white rx4 wheels and the passenger sill black, he'd be perfect! Quote
Jono.C Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Posted October 9, 2012 ^ That's coming. But it's harder than you think.. My 13x7 0~ sits roughly 1.25" outside the front guards on a stock front end.. With the ke20 front end it sits about 3" out of the guards :S No matter what struts i use i'll end up with either positive camber or craploads of track.. So i'm going to use a ke70 lca, Ke10 balljoints and a ke10 strut with the knuckle modded to fit ke70 tie rod ends. and this should fix my track and camber problem *hopefully* I also have this idea for a CNC ke10 knuckle to make it more conventional and better suited to this purpose, but for now i'm sick of mucking around with it. Once it's all in and working i'll keep looking around for a different strut i can use Quote
Jono.C Posted October 13, 2012 Author Report Posted October 13, 2012 Now has a white bonnet back on it. :) This is going to take longer than i thought.. There's still a lot of parts i need to buy to start piecing it together.. Sump gasket, Timing cover gasket, Extractor Gasket and Headgasket Fit reground cam, Weber, Extractors, Ke10 water pump, Do timing, Plugs, Points, Valve clearances etc MK1 Golf Shocks, Shorten struts, weld on coilovers Machine top hats and tie rod ends Wheel bearings, Brake hoses Tyres Balljoints Speedo Cable Ke30 yoke and new uni Weber filter Plus there's the whole labour side of it, the manual conversion etc Then wheel alignment and having an exhaust made.. I was going to start it next week but i think i'll wait a month or 2 now, make sure i have everything and then do it. I can't go too long without having this rocketing around! Quote
ninja-philbo Posted October 15, 2012 Report Posted October 15, 2012 Sounds like fun. my efi goes on this week. kinda keen to see how it turns out. Should buy it once its done so i can start on the beams Quote
Jono.C Posted October 15, 2012 Author Report Posted October 15, 2012 Haha, Getting a bit sick of messing with K motors i think! I've got a engine plan for this already set i'm just doing all the suspension etc first. It's pretty gnarly at times even auto.. so stuff more power on stock suspension! Crow said my cam has is done so i should get that back next week hopefully and i can put my engine and box together Quote
