Ke50 Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 even though its a nissan motor and it would be good to keep it toyota in a corolla, i have a love afffair with rb20s at the moment. they sound awsome (especially with a straight through zorst and screamer pipe) and they rev to the shithouse and other stuff :D.

Biggo Posted May 19, 2006 Author Report Posted May 19, 2006 Yair...other stuff like an rb25 bottom end and keep the rb20 head + fit gtr injectors :D Quote
Dan Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 Wow, its Mr. Biggos automobile :) It looks sweet with the debadged boot etc... remove the side door shit perhaps? And a great big dirty metal mulisha sticker :D Quote
Tiger Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 Look after this puppy... it has a Legacy (looks at Nick) :D Good score there :) Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 :D poor Nick....but be happy in that you have twice as many cams now :) Quote
ancullen Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 Yeah but Nick's a pushrod man. Twincams are over his head. 'Over his head' - geddit? Twin overhead cams? Well I thought it was funny. Nice buy Biggo. The 1ZZ-FE conversion would be interesting. Bellhousings are now meant to be available to put the ZZ-block on a RWD transmission (a Ford tranny I think). Check out Westfield Cars, because I think they're the one supplying it. Quote
Biggo Posted May 19, 2006 Author Report Posted May 19, 2006 Yair, thanks for the comments guys. I must say I'm lovin it as its the first running car ive own in about 10moths lol. The pushrob jobbie is gettin to me too! Adam - I was told some guys down south make rwd bell housings for the 1zzfe to put in club mans. Must find out more about it eh? While i wouldnt mind a 2zzge, theyre a bitch to find and i love the top end of these lil "economic" version :D Quote
Biggo Posted May 19, 2006 Author Report Posted May 19, 2006 There she is indeed :D MOst things have been fix now, just need to replace a few minor things and bleed the brakes then its rwc time! Quote

NoPsi Posted May 20, 2006 Report Posted May 20, 2006 Finish one conversion first before you begin thinking of another one. You'll still have plentyof fun in the car as is anyways. Be carefule of your license again man. :) Quote
Biggo Posted May 20, 2006 Author Report Posted May 20, 2006 :D don't worry about me mate heh, the "other" car is still waiting for my violent right foot :) Hey NIck, whats with the motor? Biggo wouldnt mind some specs. Oh, i found your ladies razor behind the back seat :) Quote
Teddy Posted May 20, 2006 Report Posted May 20, 2006 the motor is full 4kc powah :) which was origionally in my first blue car ke70. Was a overrated Ke70, ive still got service records for it. Had 274,000 when nick got the car / motor. Was last used / regestered in the origional car back in mid 2003. Twas always serviced, religiously, for the last 16 years. (from 2003). Was purchased new on the goldcoast, and lived there for the first part of its life = why it was so rusty :) :D Quote
Biggo Posted May 20, 2006 Author Report Posted May 20, 2006 Thanks ted, NIck mentioned something about a poopy 3k carb on it? It also has 'Jamie' on it hahaha WTF Quote
