  1. thats the whole point of doing a white engine bay imo, since you are most likely putting a new engine in it'd be a good idea to have a colour that shows leaks of any sort so you're not wasting hundred of dollars on new engine/rebuild just for it to die since you couldnt notice leaks etc. Unless it's a show car who cares how it looks? youll have the hood down 90% of the time
  2. i have some stock ae86 springs here you can have cheap.
  3. whats the difference with the ta22 box? i would have thought the bellhousing would be the same as the t18 one for use with a T series motor.
  4. there's two types, t18 t50 or ae86/ae71 t50. -t18 box that attatches to a 3tc - $100-$200 -ae86/ae71 box that attatches to a 4age/4ac - $250-$300, but then depending if its a jdm ae86 t50 they are around $500.
  5. sr20 conversions aren't really that hard or costly. No worse than a 4age conversion really, only thing thats a bit more difficult is aftermarket ecu and custom tailshaft. Friend did one and it only ended up costing him around $3500 - $4000
  6. wait I'm an idiot haha had to drill new holes for sway bar. Longer than corona arms though so its win.
  7. ke70, i know they fit because they've already been in it and then into my panelvan aswell. No mods needed.
  8. depending on her budget she could buy some from japan for around $550aud. p.s is she hot?
  9. Seller is a member on here... It's still worth every penny Though, considering 1jz mx83s with r154 go for the same price and this is a million times rarer.
  10. thanks everyone for the info, especially ke70dave. Decided on doing ke25 LCA's and rca's. undecided on 40mm or 50mm though? 50mm would be for super low cars, so probably just live with 40mm. As for the more camber, I'm not running camber tops for more I'm running them so i can adjust it if needed and not be stuck with constant 2 degree.
  11. gx70 wagon is up for sale again 1jz love! http://www.boostcruising.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=681210
  12. After asking around a few forums and not really getting a good answer. I'm putting my car back together for track purposes and was looking at RCA's and NCRCA's. Now i know majority of people will run a set up consisting of, Longer lower control arms (xt130, sigma etc) coilovers (~8kg springs), camber tops, lock spacer, ae86 PS arms and RCA's. Which gives you, more track, negative camber and reduced bump steer So i currently have t3 camber tops, stock LCA's, t3 coilover kit on ae86 struts (8kg springs, trd yellows), ae86 PS arms, lock spacer and have been considering NCRCA's but the general feedback is not to run them because they are "crap". But they do the same thing the set up ive described above, track, negative camber and reduced bumpsteer. Fair few car builds ive read from the USA all run NCRCAs and there doesnt seem to be a mention of lower control arms being changed. So i was really just wondering whats the benefit of each set up? or a detailed answer as to why NCRCA's are considered to be bad for a suspension set up. thanks in advance.
  13. also word that if you're extremely lucky there were some very late model ke70 wagons that came with ae86 struts. what year model is it?
  14. why not have a thermo fan hooked up to a switch? notice your temp going up a little bit, flick the thermo on and keep it cool.
  15. www.toymods.org.au
  16. get rims with a good offset, +27 is utter crap for a ke70, you want something close to 0 or slight negative
  17. do you run an xtreme clutch? most people that have had them said they die after 6 months and would rather opt for an exedy +1 for cushion button.
  18. adding to diff choice why not put a hilux diff in, super strong and come with leaf mounts already
  19. pant it beige
  20. a while is usually a term for longer than 20 seconds, scroll half way down the engine conversion page and woooaaahhhh find this http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=45204 same as putting a 3tc in ae71 pedal box - t18 can be modded to suit? ta22/t18 mounts onto a ke70 crossmember ae71 gearbox crossmember stock ke70 tailshalft should get you started, ask specific questions if you need anything else!
  21. what a f@$king degenerate.
  22. put coilovers in. or just get lower profile tyres.
  23. beams is $3000 for engine and box, OP says he has $6000, leaves $3000 for him to start and get it in haha. More than enough power stock to have a lot of fun.
