Yeh my mate in the SA rotor club knows the owner of the white ke20 series 4 13b, because i think its his old motor that was rebuilt and put into that car.. and also theres a fella with a Ferrari red ke30 sedan engineered and regency approved with the series5 13Bt last time i saw it anyway..
a wouldnt mind a little ke25 or ke15/0 with a 13b, or even better a ta22!!

Thinking about doing this conversion.. does anyone have anywhere i could go to read up about doing the ke30 to a rotory conversion be it 12a 13b turbos etc with costs and amount of reconstruction i guess would be involved at all and all the other crap that comes along with it..
Very interested any info would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Black.

Haha. umm yeah there's approximately HUNDREADS of toyota's in australia alone with rotaries of some description or the other, i've owned 3 of them and am currently trying to sell the Hilux [LUX-13B], see the for sale threads. And that's just australia, we're nothing, you should see what they do over there in New Zeland! Recently saw an early model front wheel drive honda civic for sale with a 13B in it not to mention the Alfa Sud i was racing against at Wakefield not long ago, FWD 13B in that aswell.
Toyota's have to be the most "rotarised" brand of car apart from mazda, almost every model of toyota i know of has had rotors put in them at one stage, from corolla's and celicas, to Camry's and HiLux's, Hell RXEngineering even put a 13B turbo in their HiAce work van and im pretty sure its running low 12's these days! (PIE-13B).
It's common sense, get the best brand and drop the best motor in them! Hundreads of people can't be wrong!
The fastest untubbed car in australia currently is Dave McPherson's [TUFFR-1] corolla, 13B turbo with a 8.54@159mp/h. Then there's also Phil Karpathios KE20 [MID-09Z] with 8.83@151mp/h also 13B turbo. Scott Pender's KE20 [GRIMAS] 9.78@138mph, Joe Alba's [TBO-13B] KE20 8.84@152mph again, 13B turbo... the list just goes on...
