Ke70 Build

[GTS-T_Sedan]

hahaha

ill have to make another meet up the east side for you to come as well

last one i went to my car was completly different, actually looks not to bad now :D

[Boost+k]

hmmm where to start... i have a sr20det in my ke70 wagon that i use for fun drift days, i run hilux rear end, locked, the lsd's are a joke and no good for tarmac use, standard diff is 1400 wide, hilux come in 1370? 1420 and 1470, i run the 1420, i wouldnt run s13 front sus i've heard bad storys about the handling afterwards

i run 22mm longer front arms, 8kg springs, strut housings shortened 55mm, ae92 trd inserts, rod-end caster arms(pretty important!), RCA's, and ae85 brakes with metal king pads

run the s13 box, ke70 crossmember with mounts welded on, custom g/box xmember, have to cut hole in floor for shifter, (its further back)

for the track i run 15x7.5 -5 with 195-45's, although have 14x8 with 185-55's on the front at the mo

I believe an RB20 box with SR bell housing will work? Shifter position is the same as standard as well I think..

Yeah, I can't remember the last time I saw your car. Think it might've been that night at Monash where the cops were just sitting around for someone to drive.

as far as I'm aware your right the shifter will be in right place BUT bellhousings don't interchange, the ones ive seen have been cut and welded togeather :jamie: i'd love a stronger box :D

sweet... i'm looking @ the hilux 1420 aswell, was just gonna weld it up :y: are there spools avail for the RN41 diffs?

 

as for the s13 front handling badly, do you mean the stock s13 coilovers?

 

i was speaking to my tuner, who has just done a few and now tunes leigh pidwell's car and he was saying it'll be easier if i use the s13 crossmember.

 

 

you have any pics of the 15.7.5-5's?

thats 7.5's on the front

 

theres spools for the 4wd guys out there... MIG spec ftw tho, theres a guy here in NZ that if you send him a lsd, he will take it apart and fit ramps to make it work like a real lsd should, about $700 from memory, i have a few mates with this done

 

i ment useing the s13 hubs, coilovers etc, s13 messes up all the geomery, where bearing sits, intersects etc...

 

s13 crossmember is just the lazy way of doing it, its your car tho so do what you like, just don't some crying when you change back to normal struts and have to start devolping your front end from scratch

[LukeAE71]

S13 front end in these chassis makes the steering very heavy, I should know I had one :)

Hey, Boost+K you should chuck up some more pics of your panelvan or wagon??? Cheers jesse.

^^^ this is definitely my favorite corolla build of all time.

 

should be able to get some ideas of what to run from that, he has a sr20 with custom solid mounts, s13 box with hole in floor and a blue bird diff.

 

some of the fabrication in that build is amazing.

 

good luck on you drifter build mate

Haha, either all would be great. Just pics your the car in general, interior, exterior, engine bay etc.. :y: Thats a bummer your on dial up, i remember when mum used to have it. Such a troubling solution to internet! Broad bands the go. Sus out "Go Talk" they have like a $60 a month for unlimited download broad band and free local calls.. Its pretty choice.

[Boost+k]

i don't get on the net much so its not really worth spending the $ on a acc, get dail up for free, and I'm in NZ where its abit more expensive

anyway i started a project thread in the tech builds forum, i must say tho my car is pretty rough just a beater really, not at all concered with things like interior and how stuff looks, as long as it works I'm happy

[Jesseb369]

Hahano worrys then mate :D and ill check out your bulid thread and check the wagon out (:

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

not to ignore advice here, i'm still looking at all angles... but how heavy are we talking? is it livable? or am i seriously gonna get pissed off and change things later?

 

i'm only building a drift hack, to smash around in..... and i don't wanna spend massive amounts of cash again...
