Steering column consists of....

 

KE55 outer tubing.. bottum tube has 10mm cut off, flared with an exhaust flaring tool to fit the KE70 internal shaft ( only flared for the bearing to fit snug ) with KE55 top half of the internal shaft ( as its about 100mm longer than KE70 ). I then have the KE10 steering column bush and shaft ( 30mm outside diametre ) with a reducer machined up from mild steel to adapt the KE55 to KE10 shaft ( 45mm to 30mm ) which allows me to use the standard KE10 indicator set up...

 

The hardest part was setting it all out and working it all out.. lots of precise measurements so the Blinkers cancel, the horn doesnt turn on when you turn corners etc etc....

5 MONTHS since i've posted on this forum...

 

It's amazing how much your life can change in 5 months... got the book thrown at me by the police in my ke20 corolla ( 4age 16v, ITBS, No interior, bucket seat, hydro handbrake, loud exhaust) and only TODAY nearly 4 months after getting caught drifting on the street i got charged in court. I was up for nearly everything they could possibly get somebody for drifting and being a hoon... and I got off with a neg driving charge. My mum passed away in febuary, I bought a TRX bluebird to do skids.... Now i'm more motivated than ever to finish my ke10.

 

Heres some pics of what's been happening.

SOOO i've learnt a lot. I've learnt how to powdercoat, ceramic coat, polish alloy.. I've learnt to become abit more of a perfectionist. I've been pumping out big hours on the 10 lately. I'm hoping to have it driving and registered in 3 months

But sadly.... ITBS, BEAMS and J160's don't fit into ke10s nicely... figured i had cut everything else so might aswell cut more.... so out came the drill and grinder

Copying the same setup as this... flipped RX7 s1 radiator with a modified inlet and oulet.. Note the rad cap is on the top cast radiator pipe.

So much updates!!

 

10 is looking great!

 

Sorry to hear about your mum, hope all your family is going ok.

 

I guess you'll be leaving the drifting on the track from now on... or not ;)

Either way, glad to see getting the book thrown at you hasn't taken away from your love of drifting!

 

Keep up the good work!

wow.

 

Sorry to hear about your mum man, I can't imagine how that would feel or the huge impact it would have, seems like you've used the car to help you trhough, which is good.

 

VERY lucky on the neg driving charge, who'd you get to defend you (locker?)

 

I love the last line of the bluebird..... street registered... haha.

 

I'm guessing the powder coating and cermic coating are at someones business?
