driftke70 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Basically 90% of the way through a ground up build of my keto, "the willy wag tail" ill just cut and paste from another forum. I basically started with the principles of a willy wag tail, small, light, agile, and happy to wave its tail everywhere. Shell; keto modified guards 86 bars wing genuine fender mirrors sexy louver recaros 10 point weld in cage fender braces Engine; 99 st205 gen 3 3sgte (will be in the region of 300hp when I'm done with it) ogura racing clutch altezza sump water to air cooler Driveline; dubya box one piece alloy tail shaft f series diff trd 2 way lsd Suspensions; rona struts power steering arms ###### lock spacer tokico shocks eibach 5kg rears 7kg fronts with helper springs in fronts whiteline adjustable sway bar rear 18mm, non adj front 22mm rose jointed adjustable control arms rose jointed castor arms and cusco mount racing logic camber tops rose jointed equal length 4 links Rims/Tyres; front; 14 x 8 - 16 ssr mesh - falken rt615 semis 195 60 14 rear; 14 x 9 - 19 volk mesh - falken ze912 195 60 14 street wheels are 14 x 8 - 16 as above, and 14 x 8.5 ssr mesh - 20 Other stuff; 45 L fuel cell, foam inner 1.5 L surge tank bosch main bosch feed nardi wheel greddy digital guage (one digital screen shows all) all will be mod plated and legal, kinda.

driftke70 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 can see the fuel cell how low it sits, kinda blurry, its actually higher than ive seen, but much lower than alot of people i have seen just mount it in the boot with no recess at all. braced my panard for the hell of it fuel cell mounted, need to trim straps there snug is one word that comes to mind making the exhaust on the weekend, bought 2.5 inch stainless and some bends and stuff, should come out good.

LukeAE71 Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Another post from me to help you post pics :y: What sort of power do you expect from the 3SGTE and how hard would you rate the conversion to do? Just curious :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftke70 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 i want around 200kw at the treads, if not more, pit of a prick of a conversion, but it suits me, could have gone sr or something like that, but i didnt really want to, the gen 3 3sgte is a really underrated engine, comes with forged internals and ballanced bottom end from the factory, bullet proof, makes good torque nice and early with a nice curve for both torque and hp, holds revs, doesnt have dodgey valve setups, and not cross breeding.

LittleRedSpirit Posted May 14, 2009 Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Very nice. I wondered if that sheet metal panhard mount might have been flimsy. With all the modding going on I thought you might putt in watts link stuff? :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftke70 Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 watts linkage isnt viable with so little travel, any benifit you have is thrown away with play in double the amount of bushes, equal length 4 links with rose joints, decent setting and stuff is more than enough.

philbey Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 What an absolute weapon. Not many people do the RWD 3SGTE thing. I looked into it years ago and I found very few people had tried it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftke70 Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 as far as i have noticed i have not seen 1 person put in a gen 3, into an 86 ke70 te70 or anything like that, no starlets and stuff, so as far as I'm concerned gen3 is a world first :bash: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
