Always loved reading build threads, so I thought ill make one for my current project

So heres the car, cant really see from the picture buts its a blackish-brown, hence its name

35370

Its a ke70 with ae71 running gear (4ac, t50). Bought it un-regoed but fixed it up a little and got it over the pits.

The goal of this project is to have a fun street car which can be used occasionally on the track.

So got a 4agte to replace the old 4ac

35371

38,000 kms since rebuild, smallport 4agze with turbo conversion, custom streampipe manifold and rx7 turbo(the rear housing might have been changed as it looks quite small)

it didn't always look that good though, this is what it looked like when i picked it up

35372

everything just needed a good clean and a bit of paint
35373
much better

Will be allot of fun once done, don't forget to pay attention to the gearbox as the t50 won't hold up too long if you don't have allot of mechanical sympathy
