Looks great, there's something about KE 10 race cars. This used to be my Club Car but sold it cause i really luv my KE1# Corolla's.

[JiP]

Gav, whats that??

[jamesrolla]

that there is a datsun sunny, what was it running.... A motor or an L motor???

looks good anyway

 

here my track car that I'm using at the moment, does 1.17 at symmons and 1.11 at basky

 

good luck with the old beast anyway, i use go and look at ur car as it was in the rebuild and respray when the old owner had it, its a great car

u will have to bring it down to basky some time, peter did a 1.12 in it i think

 

 

cheers james

yeah i was gonna come down for the LCCT day at basky in september but just found out i will be in qld, might still get a day in this year, we'll see.....

 

your 1600 is pretty quick then?

I'm hoping to get 1.17 outa the corolla this time, last time it was my first crack on the track and we had shit fuel so should be quicker this time round lol

[jamesrolla]

yeah its not to bad seen as it only runs and L16 4 speed with twin webers and a big zorst, when i did the 1.17 it was my first tima at symmons in the datto and it was on old road tyres and only running premium unleaded, its a real fun car

 

there is an Mini multiclub day on the 20th of august at basky and an MG one that I'm goin to in october, i will post up dates and a link to the sup regs closer to the event

 

cheers james

[Brendo]

yep cool, i will get to every event i possibly can...

 

cheers

alright rolla enthusiasts, i have been working on my ke10 most of the day putting the new gearbox in as i blew 2nd gear in the last one..

 

here are a couple of pics, i have the gearbox in, tailshaft back in all bolted up but not the intake manifold and extractors as I'm waiting on a replacement gasket... had to take these off to get to one of the bellhousing bolts and the starter motor bolts... :)

 

 

 

here is the abused and broken ke30 4 speed that came out :y:
