[45KIDS]

this thing is gangsta marv.. when u going to qr next? mite take the kesev on the skidpan for something to do ^__^

[marvis]

Next time it's on. Unless I'm sick.

Mercer reckons I should take it to archie... But I would rather not for a while.

[45KIDS]

stay at QR and hit the skidpan with me cause my lump of metal will never make it to the track hahaha

tell ur brother to sell me the advans when the semi's wear out which wont be to long :P

[doony]

this is sick

[marvis]

Thanks man.

stay at QR and hit the skidpan with me cause my lump of metal will never make it to the track hahaha

tell ur brother to sell me the advans when the semi's wear out which wont be to long :P
Yeah I will be pimpin on the skidpan. Will be running better also.. With working handbrake hopefully! Ready for some more wall taps and crowd sprays.

Slicks are pretty worn.. I'm a little worried about driving it like that on auszoku cruise.

marvis.

[shift_rook]

love this thing man, get some vids kickin

[45KIDS]

ill get some more pic's and vid's at the next night if im not driving ;)

[Roollla.83]

Marv the centre-lines will pimp this :)

[Dylan]

[marvis]

Only got sketchy phone pictues at the moment.. Got some more of the pan but they are nothing exciting.

[shuvke70]

different

sits pretty low

no ke anymore?

[marvis]

I had half a sump bolt and the sump is caved in and my exhaust goes like this ==___=== from hitting shit. It's high as. :P

Got sick of every eleventeen year old owning a ke70. Wanted to keep it 70's, Toyota and RWD... And different.. And now every fucking one else wants a Celica coupe..

[R&D Mechanical]

winning car marv.


more pics :) looks cool

[marvis]

Picking up clutch tomorrow then off to the shop to be installed.. Hellls yeah.

[blair]

dont neccessarily write off archi to learn on...

ive been out a few times now and only the pan at qr once.

defintely think i learn more at archi.

the main thing i find better is the fact that its dry lol.

then again, i feel like a big wet area now so probs see ya next qr night! haha

p.s. ive been wanting one of these ever since i got my hachi, to cruise around in (18months or so now?)

BUT I CAN NEVER FIND ONE!!!

[marvis]

I'll go to archie after a tune and whatnot.

They are somewhat hard to find :) Means every eleventeen year old won't have one.

The 22re goes alright too!

marvis.

[obey wan boenny]

So rad! looks heaps cool, more pics :)

[all torque]

Cool car. I reckon the coupe looks better than the hatchback RA65, too.

With the suspension mods, do you find it as nimble/chuckable as the little KE70?

[marvis]

Coupe is lighter and harder to find also.

For sure. It's a better engine + suspension setup then my last KE70, so it goes and feels heaps better, I can throw it around heaps better. IMO It doesn't feel much bigger and it's only ~200kgs heavier.

[308_rolla]

how does the 22re feel iv got one in my garage that im putting in my ke70

[Robo86]

go marvis!

[marvis]

how does the 22re feel iv got one in my garage that im putting in my ke70
I wouldn't bother..
Skids in second with smoke.. Yaaaay. They don't really like to rev, lots of torque though..

[R&D Mechanical]

torque is good for skids yo

[308_rolla]

yeah the tourqe is good was thinking of putting a sc14 on it for fun

[shichi~]

fun :D

[marvis]

I don't like turbos. Was thinking 1gge, but I'm happy with the 22re for the time being.

And I'm on my p's.

[70XIN]

i will have a video sometime (skidpan)

i approve highly of this mode of transport

[ae71neo]

Agreed, this thing is sick.

[marvis]

Thank you my lovelys.

[marvis]

I have been informed an AE86 Cage will fit in this.. I might steal my brothers cage and see how it all goes together.

Anyone heard anything like this?

marvis.

[marvis]

Just came back from sliding.. Was sweet fun.. Dude came out and just stood there.. I drove off and was like 'sorry if it's loud, just having some harmless fun'

I hope he didn't get my plates.

Got my clutch. Thanks heaps Seth! Going to the workshop soon.

[driftke70]

round abouts,

[marvis]

^ Haha sod off.

Drift KE70.

I can do them, but not for very long.. Needs a bit more power.

I'm still learning too, so don't be hating on a ######.

[driftke70]

i wasnt hating, i was just jokin,

[racsov]

fuck yeah good area

[marvis]

It's not bad man.


i wasnt hating, i was just jokin,

I know mate :)

[Paul]

hahahahah holy shit those vids are choice.

good work :)

[marvis]

Notice in the second one I get a bit of island love in the middle of the roundabout. I love getting close to shit.

[R&D Mechanical]

yeah i noticed that, looks like you got some good control for a learner !

keep the practice up and you will be king (dont hit cars n shit tho, that isnt good.)

next mods? and pics pics pics more pics

[marvis]

Thanks man. I'm an arm crosser, so I need to Dial that shit.

Looking at these, maybe a strut brace. Might take the sound deadening out this/next week and the rear seats and get the bride and no rear seats plated.
http://i5.ebayimg.com/08/i/001/17/d0/3174_1.JPG

Need to get my handbrake working, slot it. Also blew a boot on my axle which I'll need to replace soon.. Annnnnnd this fucking annoying knocking coming from my left front end.. Something to do with the suspension..

Need some new front's also..

I'm soo broke.

marvis.

marvis.

[308_rolla]

what are those extractors worth

[egg_83]

nice:jdmsmile:

[Breaka]

Things a weapon. Nice vids to boot.

[marvis]

300AUD + Shiping from the states.

Nice, lots of cool little details there.

I reckon those exhaust tips might look better with the ends trimmed off on an angle, though. Like so:
http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/741/2004j0iip6.jpg

[marvis]

That's what I was thinking. When I redo it i will make it a bit more like that one. Taller too.

[Breaka]

That's what I was thinking. When I redo it i will make it a bit more like that one. Taller too.

Trumpet them! Gattlin gun style would be insane also. Or maybe even the hole style stuff you see around truck stacks.

Not sure if it's zoku or the affects it'd have sound/performance wise but it'd be fucking wacky.

[45KIDS]

this thing is gettin tuffer and tuffer.. cant wait to see it at qr again marv.

[ae71neo]

:wub:

[marvis]

Fuck yeah. Bobjane are selling Bridgestone Adrenalins for 115ea fitted Hopefully 185 will be grippy enough...

Might see if jax quickfit or someone can beat it though.

[obey wan boenny]

Nice man, tuff as! The popo like your exhaust? lol

[Dylan]

awesome. Love that Mr T sticker

[corknose]

OMG love the exhaust!!! :)
New backround for my iPhone XD

[Clinton]

LOL ^ old marvy is getting some hott wheels ssooon!

[all torque]

Those are subway handle rings. You can usually get them on ebay, i.e - http://cgi.ebay.com/HONDA-NISSAN-TOYOTA-DATSUN-JDM-JAPANESE-SUBWAY-RING_W0QQitemZ200296471545QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Ca rsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item200296471545&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177

[racsov]

dare you to drive with the pipes on

[Paul]

where did you purchase the hello kitty hornbutton

[dori142]

i was looking at this site a while ago. seems to knows his shit as well, from what i've read he's stuff is as good as, if not better than lc and cheaper.
http://www.toyheadauto.com/PerformancePages/ToyotaPerformanceValveTrain.html

[Clinton]

i dont really think you guys understand about the hang rings...

[marvis]

^ They don't.

Thanks for the link dori142. I shall have a look.

As for everything else, It's a secret.

[marvis]

DOOOOODDDD WHEREZ DAT TOW RINGZ CUM FRUM? I WAN ONE FO' THE EXZEL....

Haha <3

I want to get a tune and extractors first. Although I'm getting some 8's next week.

[marvis]

Nooooooooooo way.

Maybe..

FUCKING WRONG
That is fake. Look at that shit. It's something you would see in a child's cradle.

[keiichi]

love it...

sounds like a typical 22re too :P 2000rpm drifts

[Clinton]

zack was the king of 22re....

[keiichi]

my 22re was a piece of shit :hehe:
im not done yet though, if the car im looking at is still for sale when my beemer sells ima buy it n shit... 21rc turbo :D fuk yeh

[keiichi]

hey marv, does the irs toe in or out when you dump it - approx how much neg camber you reckon you got at that height?

[marvis]

No idea tbh. Lots?

[hao.]

Awesome looking machine man, nice work indeed :)

[all torque]

Nooooooooooo way.

Maybe..


FUCKING WRONG

Obviously it hasn't actually been removed from a train, but it looks close enough to the real deal to me. Besides, you're only replicating a style/sub-culture that originated in another country anyway. To properly pay homage to Bosozoku, you ought to gank a ring from an Australian train.

[pen15]

very pimp marv i like it

[Jdm-Mcc]

Man has style.

Good shit

[marvis]

Well for someone who actually knows something about them it's way out of wack. For a eleventeen year old with a stock ke who thinks they are 'drift rings' or 'toe rings' they look fine because they have no idea.

As for the last comment, I got that shit sorted.. But they are real hangrings.

[marvis]

Currently doing some work on this..

Stripped the rear, Welded up seat belt holes, seam welded a fair bit of the rear end, Currently removing sound deadening..

I was going to weld a bar between the two rear shock mounts, but I'm not sure if it will actually do anything..

Had almost no oil in it last night.. I don't think it liked the 45mins of non stop drifting. Temp went up heaps.

[starni_boy]

Hey Marv, Where did you get the hang ring and hello kitty horn button from?
They look cool, I want one of them..

Nah really, Nice looking car. More Pics!

[marvis]

Secret!

More pictures this weekend possibly.

[Dave]

poor guy he's never going to get his money back

[sonsta]

lol that car is possibly the worst car iv ever seen!!!

yours is hot as but marv!!

[Jdm-Mcc]

Fugggin' LOL @ the clown with the back to the future styled coupe.

Colours, wheels and kit etc are a crime,fuzz should lock him away for a very very long time.

[marvis]

Yeah, Instead of hatin' on me.

[corknose]

OMFG that guys parents would be so dissapointed in their son for doning something that discusting!!:steamer:

[marvis]

Mine are.

'Why are you destroying that car! it was so nice! now you can't even get it out of the driveway and cops always after you'

[corknose]

"because it does sick skids!!!!!!!!!!!"

[marvis]

I always try and get mum to come out, but she never does. Would be hilarious.


Now I don't know if I could leave the front half of the carpet in or not.

And if I should paint the bear metal camo or purple or pink or red (or something) with glitter.

I think the camo will hide any imperfections though, so I may have to see how I go removing the rest of the sound deadening.

[Robo86]

just be like "its a zoku thing" ;)

[Clinton]

why are you destroying that car! It was so nice! Now you can't even get it out of the driveway and cops always after you


sigging that shit!

[marvis]

Hells yeah. <3

[racsov]

[keto]

needs to be quoted marvis mum lol

[marvis]

^ lol


so whens the ecotek going in
Wut?

[marvis]

Got so much to do on this before Friday..

Finish removing sound deadening + paint.
Engine, Clutch and diff oil.
Mod Exhaust tips.
Remove aircon
Remove emissions + EGR.
Weld Strut Bar, and cut and shut toe hook and put hangring in.
Tint Little Windows.
Slot rear drum pads
Add Lock Spacer.
Wheel alignment and get the 175 65's that mercer gave me put on.

I bet like half of that will get done as I'll get sick and need to sleep like today.

[corknose]

Sounds like uve got yourself some work to do

[Clinton]

ecotec is what the engines have in VS commos brahh, they do madd skids and look sick in an RA65 engine bay..

[shuvke70]

dopenesssss!

this thing has been making me eye off ra65's lately for the next daily...

unfortuneately most in my area are liftbacks

are u a fan of them or just coupe's?

[marvis]

Lift backs are ok, but not a fan of the pop ups on the coupe, I much prefer the JDM front.

My girlfriend has a RA65 Hatch.

[marvis]

ecotec is what the engines have in vs commos brahh, they do madd skids and look sick in an ra65 engine bay..
omahgawd i want one and i'll put an open diff back in for more points and go lapping in ipswiahhhh niggzz.

Omgz caps lock, but not really cus' i'm on the shift key in this bitch.

EDIT: Didn't even let me type in uppercase. < /Idiot>

[driftke70]

i took my mum for a slide once and she kept trying to pull the handbrake up and get out the car.

i took dad for a slide and he kept saying better slow down there might be a speed camera here, i just kept saying, they dont put speed cameras on on-ramps and off-ramps

car is looking the fat, I keep trying to find an excuse to buy one

[marvis]

Hahaha nice man!

Today Robthebastard and I were in super cheap discussing what color I should paint my interior.. I mentioned that the cops love my car whatever color I choose.
Guy at counter: Is it a commordoe?
Us: lol hells no.
Guy: I drive a commodore
Rob: That makes it even funnier.

Guy had nothing.

[Dylan]

so what colour you going for?

[Clinton]

VS commodore green dah!

[marvis]

I'm thinking white as it's easy as most of inside is white.. Maybe a light camo. I'll see how it cleans up tomorrow.

[corknose]

I'd like that.

[marvis]

Soooo I went into DOT today to swap rego, and the details they have down for the VIN and engine Number are different (due to it being old they said?) so it needs to be inspected? I have been informed of a place where a lady comes out and looks at the number... So if I throw some stockos on, wind the coilovers up, change the rear springs etc etc I may get away with it.

Other wise Track car, or reshell.

Took it shopping tonight and she doesn't seem to slide as well, a bit more sluggish then normal.. Sucks hard.

I hit a slanted gutter pretty hard too... Everything seems ok.. Putting AJPS Lock spacer in tomorrow so I'll see how the wheel alignment turns out..

All sound deadening is now out.. Just have a few more things to do before tomorrow evening... Ohhhh the joy.

[Robo86]

should be sweet checkin the numbers. when i first got my notch i had to get this done, had superlights on the rear that poked, she didnt look twice. goodluck fellow booted-man

[Jdm-Mcc]

Make a camo stencil, and go for rainbow camo!

[Toy-Yoda]

Here's a good camo......:jdmsmile:

Love taping the barriers.

Wanting to get better pics soon with the exhaust on, I modded it a bit.

[Wally]

I was going to say like you mum after I paid her with 2 minute noodles for sex.

[marvis]

Too bad she died a year ago.







Kidding.

[blair]

Dont mean to offend man and im not even saying your a bad driver

but can you please stop calling it lovetapping?

[marvis]

What do you want me to call it?

The first one was unintended, just had to get used to the pan, but the rest were intended, just getting as close to the wall as possible and trying to tap.

marvis.

[crackett]

I really like where this thing is going!

Post more pics!

[marvis]

I don't have anymore pictures.

But here is a video which I will leave up as you can't see my plates. As you can see it needs a bit more power.

marvis.

[Clinton]

[marvis]

I can do the roundabout but I loose power/stops reving at 4.5/5k and it's shit.

[Clinton]

[marvis]

The wet is a bit better :)

I want to go out tonight. Got 175's on 8's lol.

[Clinton]

i swear 4k are so good to do hellis in, you just floor it and turn. they really dont have enough power to do the big commo style whip around . cant wait to see this monster at the pan

[45KIDS]

marvis.

[Juturna]

I had half a sump bolt and the sump is caved in and my exhaust goes like this ==___=== from hitting shit. It's high as. :P

Got sick of every eleventeen year old owning a ke70. Wanted to keep it 70's, Toyota and RWD... And different.. And now every fucking one else wants a Celica coupe..

dude i did it first...... how do you think i feel?

[R&D Mechanical]

nice skids

[Konakid]

I see wat u did thar...

[driftke70]

dude i did it first...... how do you think i feel?

thats why you build a ke70, where the only part of it that is ke70, is a hacked up shell

[obey wan boenny]

Cool stuff marivs! I wish they had some wet skid pans in SA.

[corknose]

i love the wet skid pan vid ,, any plans for new motor or turbo? or make it have more power?

[starni_boy]

Hmm.

Beams Celica would be nice. $$ though

[45KIDS]

No turbo marv!

[breno]

is that Japanese writing on the door?
why?

[marvis]

^Yes, Why not?

I don't like turbo's. I wanted a 1gge in it. But I'm on P's. Looking to throw extractors on it and build up another 22re while I'm killing the current one.

[breno]

because ur not Japanese, and your in Australia.
Just a fan boy.

[Jdm-Mcc]

Breno- Japanese writing FTW

I quote you, GET OUT OF THIS THREAD!

[breno]

jdm tyte y0

[marvis]

Each to their own. Least it suits. Not like some stock gay truneo with Initial D shit on the side.

It was mainly only for QR.

[blair]

planning to hit the track at all?

[Konakid]

Marv, 22RE's need a big cam regrind. Doo eeet

[marvis]

So i have been told. Probs do it o nthe other engine. Not 100% sure on what I'm doing yet.


planning to hit the track at all?
Maybe soon. I'm not really into the track thing, I'd rather street it. I seem to get into less trouble too.

More power then archie.

marvis.

[racsov]

youd go sweet at archy. its slow with heaps of transitions so low power isnt a handicap. that said QR is rad fun cause you have to go flat stick to get anything going haha

[madi86]

haha nice pipes sweet rig dude moarr pics
also those jap hand rails look dope

[marvis]

Jap hand rails?

Might take some photos tomorrow before I have to take it back to stock (for now) to swap rego.

marvis.

[madi86]

ahhh bugga stupid rego. the jap train hand rails sitting in the back side window and on rear bar

[marvis]

Oh Hang rings. Hopefully rego will be sweet, they just have to check VIN and Engine number, not going through pits.

[madi86]

aahk hope all goes well yer more skid pics lol

[blair]

you dont need alot of power for archie man... its all about speed! learn alot more than you ever will on a wet skid pan :)

oh and marvis, he called them jap train hand rails because they hang from big rails that run the length of the train...

actually was on a bus on saturday goin into the val that had em!! couldnt get it off though

[marvis]

^ I have been sussing them busses, I need to get the tool to take them off and I'm set :D

[corknose]

haha ppl would be like wtf y would he want those

[marvis]

3sge?

[Intense]

1ggte

[Hokey]

build up the 22re. get all the parts from the states. they do crazy things with 22r's over there. plenty of parts available and all very cheap. shame about the dollar these days though...

[marvis]

^ That is my other option. But I thought I'd get more out of a 3sge.

I don't like turbos.. Keeping it NA, and I'm on my P's.. (Yes, I know I can't drive a converted vehicle)

[corknose]

meh i do :P do they offen checkj ur engine?

[Intense]

If you want to build up the 22re you're going to need a 20R head, which we didn't get. So that means importing one from the USA unfortunately and that is going to be pretty pricey.

If you've got 2.5 grand to throw around (1.4 if you include rudds payout) go on to toymods and buy narks ra60. Already has a 1ggte with a w57 and a few other goodies, bolt right in and will offer heaps of powaaaa.

[marvis]

No turbo's. They are gay.

Well I haven't been pulled over yet.. So no, not really.

Mmmmmm Rain.

marvis.

[marvis]

Might even get a beams pending funds.

Really need to sort out the rego swap but...

marvis.

[Clinton]

[marvis]

Chassis rails or might be my subframe. I need to jack the car up to look under it.. There are big scrapes on the side of the road from me. That video is pretty shit. -Takes it down-

Oh, I lowered the front more on the weekend also. Looks heaps better.

marvis.

[Konakid]

Was going to say, there are a few variations in the way some paint their bumpers, all look better than stock tho.

The half and half looks thug.

[marvis]

And mine is crocked and fucked. So black will fix that up!

marvis.

[scott_22]

scott

[marvis]

It's rego'd

But the only place I park in the city is underground? I would assume it is it.

Thanks!
marvis.

[Robo86]

[marvis]

Did you get your rego transfered yet?
Nope :( :(

If i take the strips off robo it will leave holes. That's why they are still there.

Did nebo last night. Had a ball.

marvis.

[marvis]

Sooo... I got pulled over for the first time last night.

They saw me slide a bit of a roundabout oon my way to shopping at 1AM.

Pulled me over. (I Sump fucked something while pulling over)
Cop: 'So you were going a bit too fast there?'
Me: For the conditions, yes. I pulled it back alrigh though, yeah?
Cop didn't say anything.

They didn't like my blue beacon at the back, we had a quick chat about some things on my car.

They let me off with not displaying a P plate (They could have raped me as I should NOT be driving after 11) and not having full controll of my vehicle (I went along with it)

Sooo could have raped me so hard. These guys were cool. Shows there is some alright cops.

marvis.

[Clinton]

the chances of getting cooler copz at 1am is soo high. they realise that there is no one in koowee of you, sometimes theyll make you get out and do like 20 pushups before you can go.
since when in QLD cant you drive after 11pm?
got lucky hey?

[Robo86]

lucky man haha.

[marvis]

I reckon.
