Few of the goodies Iv been collecting to put to use... Like I said, want the old bitch to handle alright, so a new set of Ksports should help with that, and help get rid of the 4wd/tractor look its got goin on at the moment as well. Teamed up with new bushes all round should make things a little tighter and more responsive. Nice buy off trademe, like pretty much everything else for this project haha. In real good nic, no tears, holes, or even worn patches. Real snug fit, might have to keep an eye on the pie intake with these. Running a rotor, an oil cooler was pretty much a given. Now just need to decide where the hell to fit the bastard.

Cheers boys, they look damn shiny in that pic, not quite as shiny in real life haha. But with all this time sitting round doin nothing, they should be soon.

Picked these up for a good price off one of the boys, with new tires already on em. Good ol Longchamps 14x6.5. Yes could be wider, but couldnt really pass up the deal. Maybe further down the line wen iv got some more cash lying round Il look at what my options are. Then again prolly not, pretty stoked with these.

huh? Without? I thought those were the best parts! lol But yuh, twin headlight front is sweeter. Im hoping the rotor can make up for the lack of those Yeah this project is definitely not gonna be to everyones tastes, I apologise now...

Deal.

Better get them fists ready then son! haha 14's yes, wide? mmm not really. Old school? yes. There will be some flaring, as it will be a necessity, but not planning on running bolt ons. And personally I like the old dxs with no mirrors, and wen their low, without a lip as well.

Yeah similar kind of idea, as far as having something which should handle alright, not just sittin on the bumpstops. But definately goin about it very differently haha

Haha you gotta deal! Without the flares, mirrors or lip, and running twin headlight front Keep an eye on the chch scene, there is gonna be a few crazy OS toyotas popping up in a while...

Cheers bro! Got most of the plan together now as far as running gear, colours, interior, body mods etc. Il just keep drip feeding it to ya haha... Always open to suggestions tho?? But yeah colour is gonna be the same kinda gunmetal grey as mutinys wagon, infact hes been signed up to panel and paint the bastard.

Stock standard 13b turbo Series 5, and gbox, from an importer in Auckland.. Supposedly 100psi across both rotors, so we will see... watch this space, haha. Ah well has a start up warranty etc. Plans are to keep the standard s5 turbo, but run a front mount i/c tucked away, and Microtec, four coils etc... After Jenny Craigs, actually looks like a rotary now! Engine stripped of all the shit it doesnt need. Going to be running Microtec, so no need for all the vacuum tubes, loom, emissions junk, and no need for powersteering, or A/C either.

The dx as I bought it, bit rough, but should turn out alright. Has spare front doors as well, but the Se doors on it are in pretty good nic, so gonna use those, plus no wing mirrors!

Having just had another ankle operation, Im sitting at home with my leg up and not much else to do. So thought Id start up a thread for my next project, and try to keep it updated as I hopefully make some progress over the next few months Iv got off work. Well thats the intention. Anyway, to the project... Bought a 83 ke70 sedan, and a Series 5 13bt to liven things up. Basically the plan is to build a relatively light, and decent handling rotary. Sedan was in alright condition, tho not running, it was pretty rust free and straight given its age, and had a recond 4k with twin carbs and extractors sitting in it.
