Truenotch Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Why would you want 3.7 ratio in a car with a 1S? It has no power or torque. Yuh, lets go measure Kades one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Why would you want 3.7 ratio in a car with a 1S? It has no power or torque.Yuh, lets go measure Kades one. Because that's how it came from the factory and that's what I want. That car will mainly be used to cruise from home to uni at 100k. It will drop 160rpm at cruising speed. Also I can run the newer diff. I have one other car for power. And one other car for torque. Aiight, lets go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 Believe it or not, no that wasn't me haha. I bought a KE35 glove box off some person on trademe who then decided to stalk me and added me on facebook. She says her sister has one in taupo so could have been her.

Roman Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 You not interested in rolling the flat lip out of the gaurds at all, try sneak a bit more tire under the gaurds that way? Can get a fair bit more width easy as, if you dont mind how it looks. Well, fronts are easy and rear is a bit more tricky where it's double skinned. I dont have stretched tires or whatev, but you get the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 Haha, Yeah I have thought about that. Then I concluded that I don't want to do that. I just don't like the look of them. Wold rather shift the wheels in further at the front with shorter AE85 LCA's. Then I can run all the factory chrome round the lips and have the body looking as un modified as possible. More bog work too to get it looking mint. Do they just fold the lip out and bash the hell out of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Word, the flat lip removed on anything always makes me cringe a little. Don't Hugo out on these 'rona coupes. Swaps you one for something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 Yeah man, haven't had a rest yet though. Last exam was on Sat, then prepped car for track in the afternoon/evening, track all yesterday and did a return trip to Hamilton today to pick up a 250c Merc for Callum. Radar detector saved me 3 times, one of which I died laughing inside when the old bald guy in a v8 commodore got pulled over after passing me twice and accelerating hard after road works but nanna specin' through corners. Word, the flat lip removed on anything always makes me cringe a little. Don't Hugo out on these 'rona coupes. Swaps you one for something? Yeah, do not want flat guards. /sister?

Simon Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 hmmm..http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 073929.htm Haha yeah I'v seen that. mutiny has got some bids on it. I guessed the plate number as pm6226 which brings up an 83 corona but says the kays are 180 and that its a AT150 so probably a different car. Also it's in CHCH. I don't want another. A daily hack and a minter is enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanners Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 hey I know i am about 10 pages late here but... 1. Can someone show me a pic of KPRs guard mods? Me no find 2. Wouldnt a 3sgte be a really easy fit into this? Mine was a really torquey motor and could whip easy top gear skids if you wanted (I wanted) and would probably eat a 1UZ one easy as? Some people hate turbs, hell even I opted for an NA motor, but thought that it might work on a budget for maximum smoke Love your rims, if they get theived and then you see a green KP driving round with them, wasnt me. Promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Nah, 3SGTE is a mish. They all came in transverse set up with the motor tipped over, so it's more work than you'd think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 Nah 3s would be easy and pretty much bolt in, just drill hole in head and pipe oil to sump. I already have a 3sgte that could go into but I don't want a 3sgte in this. It's not a race car. 3sgte is supposed to go in my MR2 but if I run out of money it will get sold.

spanners Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 aw11 with 3s would rule. my ZE one was so much fun and it was gutless as hell. so anyway... KPRs guards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
