Hmm, the factory seat has to be reversable, so ill have to figure something else out, if they see that seat in the control they'll take my plates :huh: The car the previous owner had them installed in was a Golf mk3 also :) The car probably wont be used on the track since the closest one to me is like 7 hours of driving away. So i just want a car thats fun in regular use on some twisty roads, and maybe a ocasionaly aking it out for autoslalom. There are Ta60 ateering arms also on the car by the way if that changes anything. Went out today and took some pictures so you could see for yourself, but to me the wheel seems pretty straight, so don't know about the negative camber part :S Winter is coming as you can see, so ill put it in storage soon, the car is drivable now, Spent some serious time and money on those front coilovers for a student :bash: shame if i can't use them

Sorry if i seem stupid here, but is it this angle you mean? (random photo i found on google and edited, ae86 struts) Saw that on the site you linked both ke70 and ra60 struts both were 8.4? I've gone to ''automatician school'' so electronics are my strongest side, but i can weld like basic stuff, though id make new mounts, using the orginal mounting points, but because of al the wierd angles it, would need a lot of fabrication, Something like this (How the guy i bought the seat from mounted it in his trackcar) In norway you gotta deliver the car for a control ever second year, and they are usually pretty strict som I'm trying to do everything reversable, so can't hack up my seat :doh: Really apreciate the help :)

Ohh, the guy i bought them from said they'd fit the ke70... it handles like shit now so you're right about that. 8S Have some bump steer spacers that i couldnt fit because i don't have the longer bolts, just thought it was them. don't think the models you mentioned over ever came to norway, ive seen like one ra40. Cambertops wouldnt solve it?

I bought this KE70 october last year (2015), and tought id make a build thread now. Its been a year and i have done some modifications to it. Gotten a lot of help looking at different threads here on Rollaclub, so thougt i'd just publish it. A little warning tho, I'm not a professional mechanic and I'm kinda learning as i go, I've had mopeds that I've worked on and a bmw that i kept ''hellastock''. So yeah I've gradually moved on to what in my eyes are more difficult things. And i have gotten a lot of help from my father who is a mechanic. Thought id just make a fast foward in pictures and some comments from when i bought it to where it sits now. Bought it like this, from a 60-70 year old man who inherited the car when his father died 10 years ago. it had 63 000kms on it. It has some body rust as far as i can see, the previous owner did some not that good rust repair with fiberglass, sikaflex and non color coded silver paint :huh: Drove it home, here parked next to my bmw i had at the time. An acquaintance of mine had some typically ''Jdm rims'' that i could try on the car, many of them were too wide but there were some ssr mesh that seemed like a good size. The car seemed even higher on these wheels, in the second picture he jumped into the trunk. :P Thought it looked a lot better now tho :D Had a little fun :laff: Stock 4k-C painted the top of the airfilter Changed the steeringwheel and added some other bits, the keychain thingy turned out to be super annoying so i took that down. And i changed the original radio for a more modern Pioneer with aux :) Winter hit! :D Ssr's are off and stock winter wheels are on And it hit harder.... got some rust over this winter, In the winter theres a lot of salt on norwegian roads :no: Never had any problems starting in the morning tho! Decided to remove the black trim along the sides of the car. Looked better in my opinion, but some of the glue is stil on the car, havent gotten some of it off yet. In the front some glue even ripped the paint off 8S This one might get a little hate.. but i changed the rear muffler, its not too loud idling and on lower rpm, but is way too laud on higher, gonna install another muffler in front of it afterwards. Wanted speakers in the rear too, the original material behind the seats were way too thin to hold two speakers, so i made a new plate out of wood, after the picture was taken i stapled black cloth around it, looks lowkey. sad I don't have a picture of that. I ended up buying those Ssr's and got them powdercoated in candy red, when the light hit them at the correct angle they glow :) On the car Wanted to lower it so i bought a complete suspesion from another ke70, thinking I'd just chop that set, never liked the idea of chopped springs tho. But then a coilover set for a carina TA60 popped up and i bought them, very bad condition tho. Installed some fender mirrors and made a bracket for where the old mirrors sat. Also got myself a lip, The lip is powdercoated so it's not the same color nor metallic, but it was free I'm probably going to paint the whole car afterwards anyway :) The coilovers got sandblasted and had ordered some ae86 5.1kg rear springs from technotoytuning and some kyb ae86 schock inserts for the coilovers. All of it is getting powdercoated black for the max stealthyness :D Ran into a problem with the shock inserts, the ae86 schocks were a bit longer than the TA60, we ended up cutting out the bottom of the tube and welding it in further down. And that meant installing it was next, me and my father did this over a weekend :) got some rear Koni adjustable rear shocks for the te71 for the rear. And had to buy new calipers becouse it just wouldnt be cheaper to rebuild the original ones. Old vs new rear springs Coilover refurbished Back and front wheelwells now Lowered in the rear, got an original Hella grill straight from the 80's :D Lowered onto the ground had to roll the rear fenders, a lot. :D This is how it sits now, the car got really stiff and the original seats just bounce you around, so i went ahead and bought a k sport seat. Its used but it seems to be in okey condition and i got new seat rails :) haven't figured out how to mount it yet tho, the KE70 have a wierd way to mount the orinial seat. So if anyone have done that before and have any tips about that id apreciate it :)
