Ke20- 4age

[ChrisGT]

I bought this ke20 off ebay, most of you have seen it already.

 

Its mods are:

 

Bigport 4age

T50

Locked ke20 diff

Haltech Computer

Accord seats

16 inch Simmons B45 wheels (8 inch front and 9 inch rear!)

Ta22 struts, brakes and LCA

Autometer gauges

Ford TB and custom intake

 

Basically I'm going to use this car as a daily till i get my ke35 on the road then we will see what happens.

 

It has some problems:

 

brake Master cylinder is stuffed and too small for the ta22 calipers

T50 is hard to down shift into 2nd and 3rd gears.

Wires need a tidy up and same with the interior.

 

Other than that I'm very happy with it.

 

Here are some shots: (these just off ebay will get some good outside ones soon)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just done a brake MC upgrade will post up soon!

Very nice, could you possibly post up some photos of the intake man? It looks rather interesting!

Looks very nice mate well done on the buy.

[casey]

its nice from the out side but needs a tidy up inside mate, top stuff can't wait to see more, oh and whats it go like?

[Des]

A bit of a tidy up as you said and that beast would look great. I bet it hammers aswell ;) .

[Jason]

nice ;)

Nice, except I want to know who the heathen was that chopped the Sprinter dash to put the gauges in......

 

As far as master cylinder goes, try something like Lada Niva, Suzuki Swift or RX2 I believe fits without a great deal of trouble. Measure first though. ;)

 

These are all dual circuit too.

 

The gearbox thing is common-ish. I had the same issue. Something to do with the dogs on the syncros (?)...... I'd have to ask my gearbox man to be certain.

yeah thanks guys...needs alot of work to get it looking good the outside is fairly bad too has a big dent in the drivers side rear quater...eventually i want to get it painted white when i find a pannel beater.

 

I already done the MC mod, got a 83 mazda 323 MC its a 13/16" which is bigger than the one on it before....it bolts stright up and the lines just need a bit of bending.

 

ke20 MC V's 323 MC:

yeah the guages have been done badly!

 

anyway swapped out the T50 already however the tail shaft in the old box is jammed in there...tried everything....hitting it with a hammer, slide hammer and even a hydraulic ram!! still wont budge!

 

A pic of the new box in with the 2.5 inch zorst and the custom gearbox mount:
