  1. cheers JC807, lol honda civic exhaust. i reckon the cannon suits it, i was going to put a dumpy on it but as i have always been a rotor man i reckon dumpys are for rotors. also i'll be doing an engine transplant in the near future and am weighing up either 4age or 3tgte which i only considered as it will be cheap. whats the better overall option?
  2. its grabbing below the spring carrier and only when i reverse the car, its giving me negative camber. when i drive forward it gives positive camber. i didnt have this problem when i had ke55 struts on but i had to change the struts as the spring carriers were to wide.
  3. hi people i have an issue with my ke20 struts, firstly i have put ke55 brakes on to the ke20 struts. my problem is that when i reverse, the top of the wheel grabs the strut, so i thought no problem i'll put new wheel bearings on. this hasn't helped and its still doing it. now is their a different size ke20 stub axle or do i use ke20 wheel bearing? I'm stumped, please help
  4. hi everybody, i thought i might as well tell you all about my recently aquired 1970 ke20. i purchased it about 4 months ago as a $200 shitter and have spent most of that time getting it ready for the road, its only a couple of weeks away i reckon. ok firstly i have given it a full respray minus the engine bay in the original white, it has black centred 15" watanabe wheels, ke55 diff and front brakes, microtech injected std 3k for now with custom plenum vl throttle body and falcon injectors, 2.25" exhaust 2x hotdogs and a nice cannon, ke55 5spd, later model bonnet and front bits, new carpet, new seals, r33 gtst front seats, nardi wheel, rx5 centre console, fairly descent stereo, GT style pinstripping. it also has very heavy rear shocks, monroe gt gas up front and hd pedders springs. i also must put my original levin badge on the grille. so there you go if anyone wants to post pics i will email them, cheers.
  5. its all good i got some today and it was a major pain in the arse finding some, cheers gents
  6. hello people i have a bit of a problem, i've got a ke20 that is nearly ready to go back on the road. the problem i have is that i got told to put on ke55 front struts as i had drums, now the top spring carrier is grabbing the strut tower. i have turfed the old struts and they are well and truely at sims by now, what other cars struts will bolt straight in with the spring being the same diameter as the original ke20 items? please help
  7. i actually made 30mm blocks with new shock mounts on the and offset the pins that go into the leaf and mount by 10mm. the thing is that all the mounting positions are different for the cable brackets, did you just redrill new holes?
  8. hi I'm new to this forum and recently bought a ke20. i have put ke55 struts and brakes onto it and also a ke55 diff. the problem i am having is that the handbrake cables from the ke55 diff seem to be to short. so do i put the cables from my old diff on, or is there another way? any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers.
