thanks man. Nice would like to see that.

nice i will be doing the same. Cheers for update.

i would pull the whole lot off from the tie rod put it in a vice and smash the cr@p out of it from the top if the thread is screwed anyway. but I'm rough lol.

Hope so

Thats pretty unlucky dude. Do your tyres stick out heaps?

Yeah it pushes forward Plan on making it fun for motorkhanas/khana cross. don't need as much power and still heaps fun :2thumbs:

Fitted hydraulic handbrake. Ebay special just had to make up the bracket. I had some flexi hoses made up by a brake shop and fitted in.

Yea i came up with the same kit. Looks right. Did u get off ebay? Keep us posted

nice i would like to see how u go and what kit you used.

Fitting GB Sigma LCAS Picked up a set of GB sigma LCAs from a mate who has a GB which he has modded to a pretty sweet motorkhana rig. I pulled one side off the KE and had a look. They were definately longer by about 20mm. I had to make a few modifications to them but i was expecting to. The hole for the sway bar was too far out on the sigman LCAs so i had to drill another hole otherwise the sway bar link wouldve been sitting at about 45 degrees . Also the inside bush was too fat to squeeze in so i had to grind that down to fit in its home. The ball join on the sigma control arms was different too so i couldnt us the castle nut which came off the corolla. I had some nuts lying around that fit so i just used them. After that it was just a matter of reasembling the suspension. Since the lower ball joint was further out it had made a chronic case of toe out so i did a quick to adjustment by eye ready to go for a proper wheel alignment. I'm still wanting to fit coil over sleeves so i think ill wait till ive done them and then ill get the W/A done after that. Here is a couple of pics of Before and After the LCA change. Sorry i have no camber specs atm but when i get the W/A done ill try to get a print out so i can put up the camber spec afthe the LCA change.

Removed front Chrome bumper Started off by taking off the chrome bumpers, this led to having to put the lights somewhere, which led to modifying the lights, which led to wrecking the red paint from welding brackets on, which led to painting the front grille section... so for a build where i didnt want to bother with to much bodywork i did a fair bit of mucking around getting it all to fit. Turned out ok though so here are some pics. Also took this oportunity to take a couple pics of the engine bay.

I was doing ablog but i decided to can that and put it here where it shoudl be.... Hey alll. Ive had this car for a while and have been deciding weather or not to spend time and money on it when i have a silvia that is already pretty quick. Ive finally decided to give it a crack and see how i go. Started with: 4k-c 4speed manual noisy as hell diff and gearbox electronic fuel pump Planning to build a car that will be good for motorkhanas and maybe khanacross see how it goes Gonna stick with 4k, mostly just recondition everything nothing too crazy. Mayb cam grind Have a set of extractors to fit - DONE 2" system from extractors to back - DONE Weber 32/36 - DONE Gonna run sigma LCA's - DONE Coil over sleeves at this stage standard brakes reset rear springs minor body work (not tooo concerned on making it look schmik as but that might change later) strip interior - DONE hydro handbrake - DONE welded diff - DONE k50 gearbox - DONE Modified S13 front strut brace fitted

i would have thought the single point right hand bosch would fit?

Sorry for the hijack but on that topic... anyone seen or had much to do with these? seems like a cheaper option there is a couple of different sellers on ebay with them now. http://www.accuspark.../accuspark.html Might be easeir to get for you Snippa-d.

Hey all, Have seen a few people looking but not much else. I'm chasing a mini spool for the Borg Warner 68 in my ke55. Any ideas where to look?? Have had no luck on ebay. Plus any idea how many splines the axles would be? Cheers.

Sweet got my hydro handbrake. Just need to plumb in and mount. Hey SatNav do you have any pictures of how you had yours mounted? Saw you rolled old Spike :sob: Sorry to hear that mate.

How can you reset your own springs? Any info on that one mate?

That stuff is awesome i worked at a mitsu dealer and we used to buy that off the suby guys to use

Ah tru. Ah well. Will do the job i guess

Picked up up today.... Not overly impressed but will do the job. I thought the whole idea of extractors was equal length headers?.... Clearly not on these ones...

Looks alrite might be a plan. How did that activate, forwards or backwards?

Got these off Ebay. Pinking up from PO tomorow ill let you know if they any good http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TOYOTA-COROLLA-KE20-KE70-1-1LT-1-3LT-HURRICANE-EXTRACTORS-/160863955134?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item25743d28be#ht_2486wt_1037

Both new so should be sweet then. yeah i was going to try to have it sitting next to the standard one as long as it will be comfortable to use. If not ill just use hydro... not going to drive it too much on the road anyway. Cheers for comments :thumbsup:
