    Thanks Rob

  2. Hey I'm probably doing this conversion in the near future, but does anyone know if the stock KE30 tail shafts fits?

     

     

    Yeah no chance that it ll fit mate the spline for the gearboxwill be wrong the length will be wrong and if you change the diff the rear flange will be wrong.

     

    The tube will also be quite weak and i would suspect that the uni's wouldnt handle the power either

  3. hi, Yes i have looked through all the forums and i did not come across anything that gave me a good enough answer.

    i am wondering if anyone knows if it is possible for me to put a 96' mitsubishi mirage engine into my 82' ke70 and if i will be able to pass the roadworthy for a victoria registration

     

    the question you need to ask your self is why?? and don't forget this is a east/west engine you are going to put into a north/south application. Where is the throttle body, exhaust etc.

     

    What are you after power, ecconmy????

  4. the problem being using a diff which brackets on it they wouldnt line up with you chassis rails and i would be thinking this is where you would wanna be mounting and swiging your diff off?

  5. most suspension shops can convert your standard strut over to coilovers with a coil over sleeve. For the rear you would need to do a fair bit of work weld in strut towers, new mounts to diff and adding lower control arms i.e four link etc.. Just get your leaves setup from someone and they should be pretty good

  6. Got my brakes today.... not kinda happy with the service from hopper stoppers. they sent me the wrong master cylinder and rotors.... all fixed now but.

     

    they should look good sitting behind the simmons

     

    Lol the sent me the wrong brackets that bolt to the leg of the strut. Let us know how well yours brakes. Mine isnt as good as i would have thought and i have a 1' master and 270mm rear discs

  7. Thing is , I'm running ford 5 stud pattern , i also want 6inch fronts and 7inch rears. So its kinda hard for me to find a set 2nd hand.

     

    yeah same problem as you running the hopperstoppers front and ford patten hilux disc rear. I use pre Au pursuits on the front and Ba onwards on the rear. BUt ill be making a new set up. don't forget smaller rear bump stops with the larger housing on the diff. I didn t think about and hit a bump at hundredand the rear left wheel came off the ground about 10'

  8. Yes they are a great setup my mate has one at his we built that he may be prepared to sell cheap as he is looking to get another bike let me know if your interested. It is a ke70 l300 diff corona brakes, Fully rebuilt ca18 with forgies etc i d say done 5000k or so T3 turbo made 232rwhp on 12psi

  9. dude its f@$ked putting the motor in is the easy part darn me the wireing is so hard my mate put a ca in his ke70 and yeah nissan to toyota verry verry hard man then you need new tail shaft and diff aswell but it is worth it cause it is a 12 seccond car now and slids so *** good man its the shit i hate my corolla because i drove his lmao have fun man

     

    The wiring really shouldn t be that hard. If you leave the standard rolla harness alone and splice the ca one in really it only needs to be connected to the iginition and just wire the alternator up and the starter and some power to the computer.

  10. Wow, that looks real clean. nice find

     

    here are those pics you wanted.

    They use the front spring mount as a pivot point,

     

    with another bolt that stops when it hits the top of the spring leaf,

     

    this creates a four link type effect.

     

    I am making new ones with larger triangles, and adjustable arm soon,

     

    these are my old ones, they worked really well though.

     

    They are made out of shortened commodore panhard rods.

     

    My next set will be made out of fwd pintara rear arms, cos they have an adjustment already.

    What are you going to do with those ones?

  11. I used the standard cross memeber as well all i did was cut the brackets off the cross member and attached them to the motor with some range rover rubber engine mounts and lowered the motor into the engine bay and marked where the brackets need to be cut to allow them to sit flat against the cross memeber. I then cut them with a grinder and re welded to the cross memeber
