Mitch-12 Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Hell yeah, my ke70 has 7L v8 now with jerico dogbox and 9" full floating hub rear end I'll post a link to my thread if you like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David[RL] Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 I've already seen your project so there's no need. No offence but won't that engine make the car very front heavy and destroy the handling? Unless you're using it for dragracing and burnouts.. ? :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 The LS7 is lighter than a 1UZFE and Lloyd Smith seems to throw his around a track pretty well, albeit sideways ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch-12 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 That engine is lighter then an sr20 once you have inter cooler turbo and everything else so it should be pretty good, when people convert Silvia's it makes the car 50kg lighter at the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David[RL] Posted January 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 done some more work with the steering geometry in the cressida, I have now approx 72 degrees of lock I'm making some frames right now to start "massproduction" for ke70/ae86/rx30/etc I guess it will be too expensive for you in Australia, not only because because of production costs and the currency here in Norway, but also shipping costs. but if interested even it will be very expensive, here is what you need to get over 70 degree's of lock: custom crossmember with new suspension pickups for better geometry, and moving the rack'npinion to a better position custom lower control arms to avoid tire rubbing custom steering knuckles, shorter and altered to get more lock custom inner and outer tie rods to get more lock, better geometry and longer length good steering response, no massive camber or other problems like when using the wisefab kits/etc fully drivable on street(legally is your problem) almost stock ackermann corrected geometry from factory, and after lowering up to 72 degree's of lock(depends on wheel offsett/clearance) the cressida rubs the tires against the frame alittle earlier(approx 65degrees) than the rack is at max travel, with spacers/new rims and flares/more stance it will go clear! (now: 7x14et0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwontarolla Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 It's a shame none of the pictures work any more, maybe it's just my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David[RL] Posted February 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 nothing wrong with your phone, it's because the webserver changed address. I will update the url's when I have some spare time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
