This is my 79 Ke55
Its for my L and P plates
When i got it, she was a bomb. but its gotten better since then.
A set of 16" Lenso C5's on some Eagle F1 tyres, GT gas shocks, Xplode sytem - sub, Im undergoing an engine conversion, nothing special just another 4K fully rebuilt with a 5-speed box and an Exedy racing clutch, weve cleaned up the motor, its a deep blue with silver bits connected to a yellow gearbox, pretty crazy, got 2.5" extractors going through straight pipes into a 4" muffler, braided lines, polished inlet manifold which i bored out at school, i still got the standard carby after having a talk with weber and them advising us not to get one, I couldnt think of anything less than a turbo or something to gain some horses, im thinking about NOS (just for fun)  to give it some guts. Theres some pics on this site but believe me its changed since then BIG TIME. (just havent got round to updating the site)
Any suggestions welcome, critisism too i guess, go easy on me but.

nice, always liked those rolla's. Looks like you are treating her well  Your avatar looks like its tinted now? Might be cause of the pic but it looks pretty damn dark. Car looks very tidy, I'd imagine you plan on keeping it for abit

the car was 450 bucks on ebay, the wheels were 1300 and the stereo was half price, and the motor conversion was around 500.
we fully cleaned the bay with the new motor but i have no new pics, plus im getting a 15"Alpine for free off my cousin. 
thanks for your compliments.

nice car.
one of my friends just bought a ke25 for $200. body was fine just shit paint job. He's started rubbign it back and has a 5k to put into it. Hes also looking for some large mags for it aswell. They look sweet with a bit of work.

I'd really like to buy a KE30 2 Door.. not the coupe but the more or less shortened sedan having a normal boot but only two doors.. then put in a silver top 20Valve and do a lot of NA mods to it like adjustable cams.. bigger throttle bodies.. or turbo it.. but thats a long way off so..depending on what im making after i start full time work it could be anything from a KE30 to a Lexus LS400 so im pretty open.
