Felix Posted April 23, 2007 Report Posted April 23, 2007 No, I think your question was simply unanswered. Looks as though nobody knows of any direct bolton ventilated discs for a ke1x. Quote
tenyearguarantee Posted April 24, 2007 Report Posted April 24, 2007 o i c. So is a strut swap the only way to get vented disks on my ke10? what have other people used in the past? Quote
kickn5k Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Pozman on his ke-55 has used corona xt 130 struts modified to fit coilovers with hilux ln 106 4 spot calipers same pad part no as rx 7 with pug 504 vented disks(db272) Felix is that swaybar a universal kit or for a specific make, as I'm getting one on the weekend from pedders. Thanks stu. Quote
Felix Posted April 25, 2007 Report Posted April 25, 2007 Stu the swaybar kit is specifically designed for the ke1x series. The Whiteline part number is BTF7. The only thing with doing strut conversions is that you end up with way more positive camber than stock. The kingpin inclination is all wrong on later struts. Doug Quote
Robbo Posted April 29, 2007 Report Posted April 29, 2007 is there a vented disk that can be put on these hubs. I'm assuming ke20 disk hubs are the same as ke10 disk hubs. not to sure about vented disks but if your after high performance pads like ebc green stuff or red stuff. I.m pretty sure but can't remember if its ke20 front pads or ke30 front pads have the same part number as the rear pads on a VN commodore, so if you want better stopping power, try em out Quote

Robbo Posted April 29, 2007 Report Posted April 29, 2007 I believe thats KE70 that has the same part number for the front pads as does a commodore.... yeah I can't remember exactly where I got the info from, my bad. Quote

I may have missed something, but why do you need vented discs?? I believe thats KE70 that has the same part number for the front pads as does a commodore.... yep, I had commodore rear pads in my ke70 calipers on my ke11. Quote

tenyearguarantee Posted May 1, 2007 Report Posted May 1, 2007 I may have missed something, but why do you need vented discs?? yep, I had commodore rear pads in my ke70 calipers on my ke11. I'm sticking a 12a turbo into mine and my certifier wants to see them in there. Quote
kickn5k Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) Hey Scott, I whent to peders on friday to check on sway bars and they don`t use whiteline "doh" but they do use "signature stabiliser bars" they have front and rear kits for the ke-1x`s. 22mm front kit. 16mm rear kit. They are $210 retail each and the guy at peders said about $65 to fit each. I'm getting the front one fitted next week, was going to bite bullet and order both but on the advice of Doug i thought id just get the front for time being and see how it goes. Let you all know how it goes oh ill post up part numbers when i get them. Thanks for the help Doug. stu. Edited May 3, 2007 by kickn5k Quote
Felix Posted May 2, 2007 Report Posted May 2, 2007 You're welcome. That sounds alright. You should be a lot happier with the way it handles. :jamie: Yea I'm not a big believer in the rear swaybars, unless of course you already have an LSD fitted. Doug Quote
Matmobile Posted May 7, 2007 Report Posted May 7, 2007 Hey guys, ive got a 68 ke10 and i want to put disc brakes on the front. Do i just get a set of ke20 struts and theyll bolt straight into the ke10 to replace the drums? what master cylinder do i use cheers Quote
