I would love to bring my car to your garage once it's back in pindi. Currently fixed some wiring issues ( broken sensor and sensor clip, Headlights functional again now and turn signals ) Going to start cleaning the engine and start listing stuff that needs to be done. The body is truly in a bad shape starting collect parts like bonnet which I will need to replce

Subscribing your thread for upcoming project updates BOL with the restoration

[pwuser153157067741]

Here's an updated list of things in order of priority:
1- Diff seals are leaking. Going to be getting it opened, new seals and new oil SAE-90-160. While that is happening will get my axles rebalanced.
2- New tires since the rear tires are bald
3- Brake service
4- Replacing or repairing all suspension parts
5- Engine overhaul

@dani_kk @sardarg Meray Pas ab 2 options Hain engine wise. Either I keep my 7k efi and usko overhaul Karwa loun aur inshAllah Kuch months baad supercharger ya turbocharger ki Taraf jaoun. Ya phir 3sfe dalwa loun w55 ya w58 Kay sath. What would you guys recommend considering the costs associated

[dani_kk]

Bro what's your budget. This is the most important question as we can guide you accordingly.

[pwuser153157067741]

Filhal budget is spending a max of 6 lakhs so my total cost doesn't increase 10 ( 4 ki gari ).I have around 2 lakhs to spare every month. I do plan on fully investing in this car with no plans to sell. Currently in a deal to sell my 15" watanabee as they are 1- too big of a tire 2- Too wide for me to drift. Was suggested by pro ke70 drifters ( Fahad from Karachi, Faddy from Karachi ) To go for 14" 6-7jj. Spared around 1 lakh rn to go and buy rims + tires from pindi this week. They did say a good 7ke is enough for drifting. Called a senior who owns a garage and he said if I do overhaul the engine I'll have a guarantee it's running in good health.

[pwuser153157067741]

Also could you give me a rough estime on how much 7ke overhaul would cost

[dani_kk]

Bro I would never keep a ke70 with just a engine that merely drifts. When I want to drift and enjoy. I would get in a crazy beams 3sge or 4age black top.

And overhaul of 7ke is near 140-150k approx

[pwuser153157067741]

For that price of an overhaul I think it is more reasonable to sell it and go for 3sfe swap. I do value and respect your opinion about getting a more powerful engine but I saw multiple beams engine cars on vroom track fail to drift at all. Where as the drifters I talked to in Karachi connected the entire track on both a 7ke and 3sfe. From what they said it is more about the driver being able to throw the car. Yes the added power would definitely help a lot but then I think a 1uz swap is a good option considering reliability and availability of parts. Will wait till Eid to start either the swap or overhaul. Did manage to find a 3sge for 5.5 with gear since we are making another drift project ( white stock ke70 ) but no luck finding a 4age bt

[pwuser153157067741]

Pics of the car forgot to upload before

[dani_kk]

Yes indeed but uz is a expensive swap.
I got one guy who has 4age supercharger. It is front wheel setup so we need to get the w58 trans to mate with it.

[pwuser153157067741]

4agze if I'm not wrong right ?
I do have someone for the w58 but I read there's a few changes before you can use it in a rwd setup. Also it'll be a rare engine which hogaya to Beth jaounga :p. Getting a more common engine swap atleast ensures parts availability. 1gfe beams seams to be my favourite option rn

[dani_kk]

Hahahaha bro Toyota hai. Distributor zindabaad.
Han engine kay parts ki support locally available nai but aliexpress, and bahir se samaan ajata hai. Pehli dafa dalne se pehle banda seal kit puri new dal dey. To better rehta hai.

[pwuser153157067741]

Seal kit to Dekhi hai Ali express pay 40-60$ for engines. That definitely is a must. Rims sold on my quest to finding new rims and tires. Will park the car till Eid and try selling the engine.

7ke aj dekha hai ek meine.
