ST 150 & AT 151 Corona

[2 Old 2 Rusty]

Nice of you to join us, Kevin. Are you a Toyota owner/fan as well ?

Those days the sports cars were built along the Jag E-type design & I'd say that the GT has similiar lines. I remember when I was a kid, there was a brand new E-type on display at the Wearne Brothers showroom in Ipoh & every time me & my dad goes there to play badminton at night, my dad will drool over it.

He only had the MGs.

RR,

you may wanna take a look at this; like what we spoke on the phone yesterday regarding the sludge built up: http://www.zerotohundred.com/newforums/toyota/359967-sticky-oil-at-oil-fill-cap.html#post1063348728

Those photos really got me drooling, Mr. Yau.. I think I'd be in paradise just being able to spend a couple of hours admiring those antique cars, those Levins, Skylines and Hachirokus, not to forget all that stuff in Up Garage!

About the sludge build up, that's what I was talking about.. So something like the pic that bro pcmod posted will cause severe sluggishness as well?

Oh btw.. On the topic of gearboxes which you guys were discussing in the 3S thread, the likely gearbox for the ST202 BEAMS is either the E56 gearbox or the S54 gearbox. Take a look at these pages:

Yup, that's the car but not sure if it's still the same owner. Frankly I've never in my entire life, found a more appropriate example of "Kiasu" !

No problem with us here, Toyota owner or not, just glad you took the time to join us for a chat.

So you're into classic, huh ? Well, don't know if you call it a classic but I was a Ford Escort Club member many years ago. Had a Mk II then. Just couldn't afford to maintain them, can't keep up with the rust !

1965 Honda,...is it a S600 or 800 Roadster ? Heard those had a bike engine in it...from the CB600 or something. If so, you may wanna upgrade it with a CBR-RR engine now to make it a S2000 killer..

 

[Kevin Lee]

lol well, i always wanted to go to the toyota museum, but my tours from apple didnt covered, though i passed by toyota city by bus and saw their huge ass factory yard of cars, awaiting shipping on docks, lol

haha yeah i have a 1965 honda s600, though coupe, its on the honda thread, i think ud notice it a while ago, lol. still restoring and fixing, a hell of a car to fix, because its like a car+motorcycle hyrbid. the rear runs on chain drive, kinda like a bike, lol. but yeah the output is perhaps close to 100hp per 1 litre, it does 57hp on 606cc, maybe higher now as ive upsized the pistons, due to wear and tear of the block.

there are tons of ways to actually mod the car. someone from the overseas in the uk and australia is already plonking f20c's, cant wait to see the outcome. theres already a kawazaki zx powered s600 convertible in australia and also a fiat 1.8 supercharged s600 in australia, its freaking fast and does about 9 second quarter mile. that car is an aussie icon and unmistakable, lol

but yeah, anything that is already 25 years and above is called a classic, 50 years and above its called a vintage, thats the info found from malaysia singapore vintage classic register

lol

 

[2 Old 2 Rusty]

Well, some purist may wanna retain it in its original form; from A-Z. So modding it is really a subjective decision coz modding is easy but vintage are hard to come by. Some say once you mod it, it's like an old timer singing rap or dressed up in hip hop style kinda thing, you know.

You're from the Big Apple, Kev ?

 

[Kevin Lee]

I'm doing that, retaining how mr soichiro honda's intended spec lol, but yeah I'm from Tinseltown perak, not an American for sure, you'd auprised, it's a local car

 

[2 Old 2 Rusty]

Good, we're from the same state; the Silver state.

 

[Kevin Lee]

no kidding, lol and where are u specifically in, lol

 

[2 Old 2 Rusty]

Seaside town of Sitiawan & you, Kev ?

 

[Kevin Lee]

haha, im Kamparian, lol, let me guess, are you a Foochow guy, haha

 

[2 Old 2 Rusty]

Sorry, I'm Cantonese & you're a Hakka ? Haven't been to Kampar for a long time; umpteen years I think.

 

[Kevin Lee]

lol, half cantonese myself, my mom's from sibu, so im half here and there, lol. ive frequently dropped by to sitiawan, at least once every year, the kong piang by the alley opposite the huge yellow building is awesome
