J-Calico Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Hah fuck nah not selling the car!!! Just contemplating flicking some parts The Euro you saw on RPF1's was probably a mates car... It is so badass... love the way K20A's drive, so seamless feeling. (hope you find jokes funny afterward if you sell that... ) No, No not the car!! i meant your soul, (like when bart's sense of humour's bland after flicking his (for a $5er?)) (old comment i know lol) Yep, thats the one i saw, its very cool. Crack up it wasn't yours, but you do know the owner well, small world/(nz city?) I'd like to have a yarn/old school 'post chat'(ha) with you about your coilovers, they came up beautifully, as i want to do a similar thing to my old 'toyoda', but simon thinks i should mod off-the-shelf ae86 items, but thats $1755 + new tophats + other modifications/parts (more$) and I(/we?) dont even know if bolt spacing for caliper mounts etc & stub axle length are the same?. read an old post on clubK that talked about those measurements being different on ke series and ae86 shocks. I wana make my own too, but he thinks its too much of a mish. -cos im getting a spare set of front struts with a bulk load of parts (incase modding them went horibly wrong, i'd have a nice stock set for wofs.) -can get new ae92 inserts off a mate for $100 -sleeve kits are only $300 -I'd need tophats - & rca's -and my old man/friends can do machining & welding required. where did you score your top hats and sleeves, locking nuts etc from? they look really good, were the tophats a sraight fit for the KP? & were they reasonably priced? any help would be appreciated.

J-Calico Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 So Got my copy of a certain NZ car ethusiasts mag today.... Good to see OL K-P in P-Kar! (even if some of the oldschoola's hate on the 'zine) ....Hope the drones of brainless idiots dont catch on to jdm themed oldschool soon/ever though... esp when they're putting Boso/kaido sections in it. Well Done Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Mk1 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Yeah, saw Mr. Opie up in there. Reminded me of jaunting around with him in it in CHCH when it was all standard and shit,what seems like an eternity ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 'grats on the NZPC feature Rich. Gee I'm starting to know a lot of people who have featured on 'daily driven', haha. interview seemed kinda short though, I guess they were pressed for time during nats? I'm hoping too that no one catches on to the style just yet, but only because I want a chance to finish my cars before the trend inevitably hits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I'd say congrats, but you appeared in the lamest magazine ever. I'm more like wtf? Car looked cool as, and you looked handsome, so every cloud... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I'm sorry. Thanks to the postive comments though I thought it might be a good chance to get something a little bit left of the norm out in the mainstream, maybe it will kickstart a trend of less desprung modgie clad KP's. Who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaMpylobacter Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 if you save ONE from the failtasticness of debumpered rear end, you will be a king in my eyes, even more than you already are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 I'd say congrats, but you appeared in the lamest magazine ever. I'm more like wtf?

ryanfels Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 My ke70 cracked along the very same seams. We just seam welded it left it at that lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Yeah it's probably a bit overkill but nevermind. Shit will be stronger now. Al - yeah mate I am a bit annoyed about the bonnet. Gotta look ahead though and it'll turn out choice in the end. Pics of paint etc to come once it's safely up in Akl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Keen as to do a working bee on this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hmm. Sorry man... I need to be extremely particular about this whole thing, I have a standard in my mind it must get to and a 'throw it together in a weekend' type thing just ain't gonna happen. Time and money are my worst enemies, more so the latter if I was being completely honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanfels Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Owell, always keen to give a helping hand whenever a hand is needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Yeah man I'll need a hand popping an engine back in the hole in due course. Just so it can sit there and look choice as/get an idea of where the front ride height is going to sit too! It's nice to have some semblance of a plan.

feathersword Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 So this means it's not being sold?? Good news, I can admire the amount of time and effort put into this car, and would be great to see it at its former glory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 It's still on the market, I think it's probably a bit expensive for most to consider but the really pricey work is already done on it... Either way, it's something to tinker with anyway Gotta have some kind of crappy dead car in the shed eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
