Ke70 + 1Uz
How much do you want to spend on the car ? Can you do some of the work yourself ? I'm fitting a 1uz to a jza80 at the moment and the owner of the car won't get much change from $10,000 after it's completely road legal. Your ke70 being a drift car you may not want it registered so that will cut the cost slightly. I say do it but be prepared to pay a lot if you can't do it yourself.

3K Getting Hot
The radiator is blocking up with shit still. I had it professionally flushed today for free and I put a stocking on the top hose and from a 15min drive it was blocked up.

This Forum.
I like reading the rides threads but I'm over reading about drift pigs and "JDM" ke70's that have cut coon springs so i skip a lot threads. Don't worry Trev, i still like you.

Ke30 Rotorolla
Shit connection at the switch causing too much heat ?

3K Getting Hot
I pulled the radiator out today and yes it was filled with gunk, Reverse flush and no thermostat and she runs perfect. I need a new thermo fan though as mine is seizing up. Rather hard to spin while its turned off. With the fan going, sitting still and in neutral the temp is about 75 and giving it a hard time about 85 degrees.

Ke30 Rotorolla
Heat wrap on the exhaust ? My Corona with the V6 use to do the same thing but not as bad, I lifted the rear of the bonnet about 10mm and removed the rubber seal. It made a huge difference in temps when stationary and low speeds but looked odd to me.

Race Engine !!!!!!
If i was in your shoes id be running Ae71 brakes up front and probably leave the rear drums alone, front to rear proportion may be out though. Do Ke17's still run the transverse leaf in the front ? If so run ke20 springs and ke20 strut tops on the 17 struts. Run what ever insert you choose and what ever spring rate you like. Reset the rear leafs, add leafs and run dampers of you choice. Ke30 inserts should fit the front struts with a spacer. Insert $100 4k and flog the shit out of it and when if it pops buy another. Run some wide 13 inch rims with decent tread. If your serious about circuit racing i doubt you will keeping a K motor for very long so i wouldn't spend a heap on one. That's what i would do for fun if i was in your shoes.
