@rolla beams. Create a project thread on here and others will be able to help as well

Prices above for the adaptor were: $350 machined. $250 unmachined for now.

It's much easier if people get them machined themselves to suit there setup.

I don't really have any drawings as it was drawn straight onto the wood used to make the pattern.

i can sell you a cast aluminium adaptor, that you can machine up to fit the blacktop itb's. havnt tried it with blacktops yet. just silvertop. but 99% sure it should work as the only diference is the size/shape of the intake. It just means that you will have to modify one of the links between the 2 centre throttle bodies. You will need a decent aftermarket computer that can run the dual vvti and the itb's. The fuel system still works as it is not connected to the factory plenum. other than that i am still learning myself so goodluck.

Manifold will be $350 machined. $250 unmachined for now. Need to recoupe some money from making the pattern but it's still cheaper than what fraiser sell there carb manifolds for.

Agree on the rav4 awd with quads haha.

does the ke70 speedo cable fit the w5* drive?

Yea just read on google that is200 is the same as w5* so altezza must be too.

anybody know where to buy w5* speedo drive from?

thats what i am hoping for, something mechanical that fits.

This is a mx5 mechanical drive that looks very similar to the altezza unit.

very nice build which link g4 were you planning on using? storm or extreme?

id like to see your re barrled/ widened wheels and how well they were welded up please send pics.

also how muchy acn you reproduce some quad itb adapters for?

Alex

Im not sure which link, dont even know the diference personally, the electrician i am using had a pretty good plan on what he was going to do when i drop it off.

Not sure on a price of the intake manifold as yet. Maybe around 400? probably less.

Realised today that the electronic speedo sender unit on my altezza 6speed box is not going to work with the old mechanical speedo in the corolla.

Is there something on link ecu's that fix this? or another simple fix?

I have seen a few ae86's and ke70's on youtube etc with this conversion and working speedo's

Any help would be great, i am aware that you can buy "convertor" boxes but there must be another way.

Cheers

OPINION TIME

Liking the fender mirrors, but keen to keep it kiwi spec with the door mirrors.

Vote here:
Poll: Should I...

Hope it works haha

shit i love this build, my (hopefully) cheap throttles couldn't be put to better use! will look so sweet sodablasted sporting polished trumpets. that manifold is amazing.

Yea those are your ones, cant wait to get them cleaned up.

That cast inlet manifold is awesome, is that a pricey exercise to have it cast?

(guessing the design and mould was all skill/free..??)

Also Mr shakotannnn it is manditory you attend next/one ever, O.S 1st-thurs-of-the-month meet!

Or you will be removed from the forum haha

The cast inlet manifold is the sort of thing that my dad designs and builds for a living, they take allot of work, and are not the cheapest for one off objects. Also dont have our own mill so had to pay someone to machine it.

And i will be there haha.

Got my first cast manifold back from the machinist today, love it, now to soda bloast the throttle bodies to get them looking as new and sexy.

hey, who is the local engineer that widens rims?

Cheers

I'll ask him if he's keen to do more when I see him next. Biggest he can do is 14" at the moment tho. Due to the lathe size.

Found a local engineer today. Does allot of automotive stuff.
Dropped my steel rims off to be widened. Next will be diff and driveshaft as soon as the engines back in.
Looking like its on track to be done by summer.

New Seats nearly in, mounts are in position, just need welding. should do for a bit.



boss kit finished

After watching initial d,
I decided I would love some square fog lights for the front. To hang below the bumper.
Managed to find these for a great price at the swap meet on Saturday. will see how they fit.



Also picked up some waterjet'd parts from local workshop.
A boss kit and ends to my cusco strut brace. Which I have assembled and are ready for paint

 

new tyres arrived, toyo t1r's 195/45/14,  now to get the steel rims widened to match.



next up is to waterjet out a strut brace and boss kit....

Yea will be used to shape the sand in a box. Then take it out and pour aluminium into the indent thats left. When it's Cooled down. Take it out and machine up the faces and drill and tap all the holes.

wow thats a distance, would need 120mm'ish trumpets. My boss has about 310mm on his chevron racecar, and i worked it out about that on a online calculator. so will aim for 310mm for a start.

Thanks to my amazing father, we have a pattern for a 4age-beams intake manifold for the quads.



And thanks to a good mate who sold his evo 7, i have a evo 7 rear Cusco strut brace, which is an insanely close fit to the ke70.



So will make up some new mounts for the alloy centre off it.

Oh and my trumpets arrived. just a couple of 50's for now.

Fitted my new Evo radiator. Nice and big, with both inlet and outlet on the correct side, and 99% sure the bonnet still fits.

The automotive photoshop bible, where i learnt all my basics when first starting out.

There was two guys in levin, the guy that certed the v8 subaru and Andy Smith. Allot of the local hot rodders are using Andy these days, he comes up to Palmerston often too.

Happy birthday to me, thanks japan

Ke70 Discussion


Made a box for the altezza clutch pedal today. It's still a little long but should shorten up fine and seems to work mint.
