:greenbounce: aquired a stocko original auto 4k Kesev for 200 bucks, good condition aside from cracked dash, fucked seats and lots of rust spots,

so far have fitted my 86 wheels and recaros and started stripping the paint back, there is no rush to paint this car so I have stripped it to a shell, paint strippered it and bought bog, primer, filler, sanding paper, stripper, a block, masking, brushes, etc... everything I could need

for colour I have chosen to go with a Panda Yellow/black ( john deer yellow and gloss black ). as the paint is well and truly shagged.

I have left original springs in there as I'm not interested in cut springs, will remove motor and trans tomoro and paint strip engine bay and paint in there also.... got a week to spend on her so going to take my time and make sure it comes out sweet :)

pics up soon, cheers guys, Dave :)

Dave
28th July 2007, 10:54 PM
tomorow the fun starts :P fitting the 4ac and 5 speed, I'm only trying to get the 4k running cause I'm giving it to a mate and wanna make sure it runs well..... was there a good power gain when any of you guys went from 4k to 4ac in a kesev ?

Bustin_86
28th July 2007, 10:56 PM

Also, much better fuel economy!

Dave
28th July 2007, 10:59 PM

Dave
29th July 2007, 01:21 AM
dude can you seriously just save the smart ass comments, I just wrote off my un insured 86, this is all I can afford .... so have a little bit of consideration thanks. Dave

29th July 2007, 12:07 PM
don't worry about them mate, looks like a good start project, good to see you got a flat front.

I'm very keen to see how the painting goes, how come the paint was so cheap? I was expecting like $300+ for paint? is it proper car paint?

1JZ Z20
29th July 2007, 04:18 PM
very nice start there dave.

how you going to fix up the rust in the rear? just bog?

once when the 4ac is in let me know how it goes as I'm 4ac-ing my kesev too soon.

can't wait to see finish product.

keep us updated :2thumbs:

Dave
29th July 2007, 08:37 PM
no it wont, paint was from paint supplies hence price, I have spent 4 hours on the rear door repairing rust, bogging, and sanding to bare metal..... I plan to spend much time on this car, engine is out... swapping pedal box and crossmember tomoro... pics soon :D

RobertoX
29th July 2007, 08:47 PM
dude if someone gives you the slightest bit of shit or makes a joke you arc up

chill out and have fun with the ke70

Dave
29th July 2007, 09:12 PM
I am having fun with the ke70 and I'm not arcing up... id like for once for people to just keep there negative shit to themselves...as I have asked you before david. if people where going around making jokes about ajps and badmouthing it you would get pissed off also.

I have just lost a couple thousand dollars and ratehr than quite the toyota game. I'm coming back bigger and bolder and doing things properly and hoping to make the craziest jap style kesev in adelaide :D

Gavatron

Dave
13th August 2007, 07:47 PM

paulie
13th August 2007, 07:55 PM

ADM quads FTL[/b]

dunno what ur on about man, i think they look pretty mean. are you gonna go chrome bumpers?

Dave
13th August 2007, 08:15 PM
trying to find some T series bumpers but not having much luck with it i think im just going to spray the whole car gloss black with chrome bumper, quads and deep dish wheels and leave it at that.... have shaved all rear holes on the boot and am going to rig up the boot release cable from the 86 for it.

obey wan boenny
13th August 2007, 08:23 PM
hey mang, car's coming along nicely (y) , just don't take in any negative comments that don't help you, it alway's works for me and saves yourself from getting into quarrels. :) hope to see more pics soon though :P

Try toyoland for bumpers.. they have em there for a reasonable price...

Dave
13th August 2007, 08:31 PM
will take some more tomoro 1J hoping to finish bare metal sanding and have it in primer. ( possibaly even painted ) by this time next week.... still got to but the solid tail shaft in along with locked s series diff, paint it, finish all the fuel lines and stuff and just neaten engine bay up :) thanks guys

driftism
15th August 2007, 04:33 PM
don't space out the quads, they look heaps weird poking out past the bonnet edge.

Dave
15th August 2007, 07:55 PM
the picture doesnt show it but they are a bit to far in. i want to bring them maybe half a inch in from the bonnet edge.. also have to make some kind of grill, been coming home from work daily and just feeling to lazy to even look at it

corona lights work better

Dave
20th August 2007, 12:28 AM
yeah had some trouble finding some rona lights, but i also wanted a diff look.... the 180b sss lights arent too bad, but the grill and mounting the indicator is proving difficult.

hilton
20th August 2007, 09:01 AM
looks sweet man, u doing that panda yellow? i recon it will look good with them rims and when you slam it a bit hey.

:2thumbs: lookin good!

Dave
20th August 2007, 09:21 PM
not gunna do the yellow... will look shit, just gloss black with chrome grill and light surrounds, chrome fender mirrors, and black vinyl interior with nardi wheel :)

Dave
21st August 2007, 11:56 PM
the idea off mat black is appealing to me atm :S

obey wan boenny
22nd August 2007, 12:01 AM
nooo00000000!!! matt black has been done over and over again, it'll be too cliche. :o

Bustin_86
22nd August 2007, 12:02 AM
It will certainly be different :lol:

Dave
22nd August 2007, 12:13 AM
lol..... im getting impatient.... i want this driving....

paulie
22nd August 2007, 12:25 AM
Matt black looks sick if done properly.. ie no rattle can job.
Theres one matt black KE in blackwood, looks patchy as.. Do it properly and apply it thick if you choose matt blac..

Matt black KE with black wheels will look SIK,, Pig's FTW

Konakid
22nd August 2007, 12:31 AM
I have never seen a matt black ke in my life

stefan
22nd August 2007, 01:08 AM
mmmm dave and spray cans winning combo

waits 5 minutes then get fired up

driftism
22nd August 2007, 10:53 AM
Do it rat rod style, not matt black... but SATIN :) much better yes yes

Dave
22nd August 2007, 08:14 PM
atm i have like 3 litres of gloss black enamel.... tis either that or satin black..... clean simple with a slight touch of pig ftw....

sly1300
23rd August 2007, 01:56 AM
dave. NO spray can jobs.... youve spent too much time and effort tidying up the body to wreck all your hard work with a pressure pack spray job. :( that poor red sprinter..... how much grief did i give ya every time u came in the servo. lol

forget the matt/satin or gloss black... you know the friendy hills pigs will be on your case a.s.a.p. fuck that.

go with your original plan of yellow panda, but mask it all off properly and get ur mate to paint it.. it'll look killer.

do it, go the angry bumblebee kesev.

p.s the quads look hot, dont throw out your old front.... ill need some bits of it soon :)

pebbles
23rd August 2007, 02:49 AM
imo go with satin black, and chrome bumpers, dont go matt black, satin is so much beter, wel it will be for this anyway,
the quads look alright, they dont look like they needa be spaced, but then again i aint seen it in the flesh,
anyways, so is the 4ac in? how far u from getting it running? or is it running already?

Dave
23rd August 2007, 10:53 PM
lol thanks georgy ..... yes u gave me a LOT of shit . infact u bansticked me from the servo. no im not pressure packing it

4ac is in and running, just need some time to put my locked S series in, find a way to fit the ae86/ae82 fwd style radiator, then do tailshaft and just rig up fuel lines and fit exhaust. ive had it running already and sounded good, my 4age is on the way so this motor will get a realllll hiding ..... i thrashed it bad in the 86 and it didnt die... maybe i shuld turbo this one just to kill it :)

kravit
23rd August 2007, 11:02 PM
Looks like alot of effort, might aswell finish job right.

Dave
23rd August 2007, 11:11 PM
there has been a rediculous amount of effort... i dont even know if im keeping it. my HR truck licence will cost 1600 so chances are ill finish it and sell it to pay for my licence

Dave
26th August 2007, 04:46 PM
