rxtoy Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 This is where you tell me why I should/shouldn't rotary swap it................. I won't. So far almost all the Kiwis I've told have tried pointing me in that direction, the Aussies are more inclined towards an LS1 Cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 There was one of these locally that got about years ago and I never got a chance to hit the owner up about it. It ended up selling for fuck all when it comes up for sale. I couldn't believe it. Sweet little cars, would love one myself. Envious. Congrats man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abarth Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Whenever I see these cars it reminds me of this KE20. Good score man, looking forward to the updates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I fell in love with one of these when I was in Melbourne a couple of years ago, a guy turned up to a little meet we went to in a super cool 5K swapped one. He was a GC, and he drove it pretty hard. I've pined for one ever since, but chances of owning one are probably pretty slim. Definitely one of my dream machines. Keep it K. I can't believe I'm saying that, but the character that this little KE15 had with the 5K in it was just so perfect for the car. Couple of doorty sidedrafts and you're good to go. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red one with stripes and race numbers? Adam Laws threw that together, that's the exact car that made me want one as much as I've never been a K motor fan I think you're right, this is the right car for one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 It was a white one, with the plate TIKTAK owned by a GC named Amar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rxtoy Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 I already tried to buy it, he's not keen. Reckons he's collecting the set, has the wagon, 2x2 door sedans and a 4 door sedan back in NZ. Fluked the wagon find when him and some mates were picking up a cheap bus to take to scrap and it was just sitting there in a field. 1 owner, she retired it 8 years ago when she lost her licence. Such a shame it just sat there, it's pretty rough now, but definitely fixable If anything comes up I'll keep you in mind though, it's crazy what's still sitting around in WA, it's just a matter of finding it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
