Teddy Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 Its just a thought Were do i start. i was thinking. Ke70 dash board = nice, but its just nice. Nothing too special. So, i thought, what dashboard & console could u put into a Ke70 that would.. 1. Look nice 2. Fit within reason - fewer mods as possible to fit into ke70 = good 3. be some what unique. The search was on. Ke55 dash? Nar. Ae86 Dash? Nar. Datsun 120 Y Dash? - Nar. S1 & 2 Rx7 Dash? - sounds good 2 me :) Does it fit? ... *scratches head... Ke70 Dash Width = 128.5 Cm* Rx7 Dash - 128.5 Cm Gear stick position => ya, it fits too... Mods to make it fit - custom piping from blowe = not too hard :D ! Re-Wiring of gauges... car electrition Mounting it - give me a drill, a set of bolts and higher a mig welder 4 the day - anthings possible ! Now, what does evey 1 here think? Sure its alot work, but it would be different :D Lets here some feeback ! :) Quote
Super Jamie Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 then you too can have that f@$king annoying buzzer when you go over redline, WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH :) Quote
Nitephyre Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 hahahaha ahhh, *reminices about the buzzer in his old s2 rx7* i miss that ;( Quote
Super Jamie Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 i like the calm little ding dong when you leave the lights on, ahh :) i also like the pop on gearchanges because of the stupid thermal reactor exhaust system, but thats not something you'd put on a corolla :) Quote
Teddy Posted June 7, 2004 Author Report Posted June 7, 2004 Yoll'K, now that the storm isnt going to shut my comp down... Steering Collum & Wires - well, i theres only 1 way to figure out if it will fit or not...even if i left the corolla plastics on the steering coloum and just made it fit, making sure its not tacky ! Gauges and that - yeah, i was thinking to make it the corolla 1's 2 try and cutt down on confusion and annoying work. Windscreeen... well, they say u can't put a square peg in a round hole, but who says u can't put a round plug in a square hole (with assistance of other materals and paints :) ) heheheheh Holidyas comin up, its testing time :) Quote
andrew Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 with the gauges, just use the senders and shit of the rx7. i fitted a mitsubishi scorpion dash into a ke38 and it went in without to much trouble, and looked sweet. then i just put the senders out of the scorpion motor in the rolla motor and wola, it worked sweet.

andrew Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 and if the rolla and rx7 dashes measure the same, then hell, go for it! Quote
Teddy Posted June 7, 2004 Author Report Posted June 7, 2004 Now all i have to do is find an S1 / S2 or possible S3 somwhere and see how much a dash and accessories would cost i wonder how long this rabbit hole is :) :) Quote
andrew Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 lol look around at jap wreckers or something. if you were willing to transport one, sss in nsw would definately have one Quote
Teddy Posted June 7, 2004 Author Report Posted June 7, 2004 Kenny's ey... where abouts are the situated? I'm going to auto trader.com :) Quote
mumblezzz Posted June 7, 2004 Report Posted June 7, 2004 The way I'm going there may be a sprinter dash up for sale soon. :) Quote
