DearmanKE

that is chewing abit, i went for abit of a hills drive friday night n used about 10 bux n went about 100 k's and thats with moderate to high revs most of the time, and this is with a stock 5k although last night i went for another hillsy this time with a full car,(3 others), probs went about 60k's and used about 10 bux again, so is there anything heavy in ur car u don't realise? lol

cheers guys, might get sigma arms, or i might save my time and money to get my sprinter on the road

where is this said breather line and charcoal canister? its the cap off a ke55 so its exactly the same,

my fuel pumps kept shitting themselves, and i found out it was because of fuel pressure building up in the tank, i had to cut a small hole in the rubber seal around my fuel cap to stop it happening, but now i get fuel spilling out on sharp right handers, so why does this happen, does anyone elses build up pressure? and if so, does it make ther fuel pump spew fuel out the breather hole?

so who knows the ke30 lca length?

hey guiys, ive got a ke30, n id like sum camber, 2 degrees sounds nice so anyways, jsut wondering if thers any easy control arm way to get some, i know xt130(corona) control arms work to give 2 degrees on an 86 jsut wondering are ther any similar options for a ke30, maybe ke70 control arms or something, or are they jsut the same as ke30? any help appreciated :locked: cheers

I'm excited about this thing i get it next week, i hope it starts, if not its still worth it but yeah running motor would be awesomeo! dw bout the 4k btw that was askin for a frend but he decided not to spend money on the poo ke70 taht it was lol, nto sayin ke70's are poo jsut sayin that 1 was, lol castrol gtx-2 ey, i should get sum then? what do u reckon of the idea of getin cheap oil n then in 200k's or so replace with good oil because woudl u expect the oil to get dirty quick in this situation?? ps: the 4ac would be the same as in any ae71, and similar to an ae82 4ac just a rwd version
