Stainless is the type of steel not the finish.. :P

Aw, Diddums

I reckon it looks better but most people are shit blokes and don't do a good job or shorten it too much.. I reckon they need to be cut along the ridge before they get the rise in them near the lights

Looks cool! My only dislike is the eBay fender mirrors, I don't like them on anything though tbh

Also you have the manual conversion gear. As they never came out manual you need a custom bellhousing which i've seen around the 500-600 mark and pretty sure a new ecu to allow the engine to run it

Really depends on your desired ride height

I've had this video saved for a fairly long time. So much love for the Ke10 in this video.. The noise!! That car and it's engine finally made me decide to go the way i have with my engine. Can't wait to take it along that road and the Hillclimb!!

Chopped springs *can possibly* be alright, As long as you run shorter shocks to keep the captive. They're no worse than buying shorter springs and not changing the shocks..

You'd be easiest to upload to YouTube and then embed it here Congrats on the first fire by the way, Must be chuffed!

Lul.. I swear you use that term whenever you can now.. Minitrucks don't do skids, Bogan's in Vs's *attempt* to

Hahaha

That wagon is sick! The hubcaps are pretty cool on the ke20/ te21 but as Reed said America got awful bumpers Also that blue ke70/te70 is awesome! They look like 13's? Can i ask what size tires you're running on it? Look like 175/50~?

Few of you already know but.. Update! I've half finished the manifold. Just need some tubing to connect it to the carbs and to make a bracket from the rocker cover to support them. But wew! They're a cable choke as well which is cool as hopefully they'll be alright in cold weather.

Hahaha. That's an epic movie Soooo much want...

What camber tops are they? They look to actually fit unlike mine haha

LOL that is the most wack comparison I've ever seen in my life.. How can you "fix" earth. I'm not very environmentaly interested or anything at the slightest but as we're running out of oil and minerals and have supposedly ruined our climate with global warming etc.. it's a bit late now.

Yes but think, when we've ʞ©$ɟed the planet up so much that life is barely sustainable here anymore we'd need a new option, if they can do it then well done, humans can live for thousands of years to come. Until we ʞ©$ɟ yet another planet..

No worries, Cheers heaps for that Stu! I'll be sure to let you know how the front end performs once it's done

I've got a full set of 13x7 -25 Widened Datsun 1200 ute wheels to go on it. I can't put them on until my front suspension goes in and i change the axles though as they're a different stud pattern. Also they're going to be sandblasted and powdercoated in a new colour combo that should look pretty rad and wrapped in new tires before they're put on

Might as well just take it to an auto trimmers or something then..?

Yeah 7kg will be stiff, But 6kg wasn't stiff enough even on just the push test.. This will protect my guards and when i change to tociko shocks later i'll put 5kg's in and put the 7kg in my celica. I'm running Aw11 Mr2 aftermarket rear gas shocks, Need to shorten the strut to use them. The reason i didn't go tociko as yet is they're a standard length shock, I want the Illumina adjustable but the stroke is way too long.. So what i'm doing is i'm going to put my New mr2 shocks in the lathe and shorten the shock tube to hold it all captive and retain full shock travel. I can't do that with Tociko's as they're adjustable and have the adjuster up the middle.. So i either need to find a way to shorten them or get ones custom made by them.. But gas should be fine for now, I might even swap these springs over for something else yet, Not sure until i get it together and see how it feels

;)

Parts of the Coilovers v2.0 rocked up yesterday. And i got stickers!!! 48mm Sleeve kit 7kg springs.. Seems insane i know but 6kg isn't enough to save the guards.. As i want to run it pretty low this will stop them from bending or ripping. And eventually i'll get some tociko's adjustables and drop back to a 5kg spring.

Pretty sure I come close to that figure alone!
