oli Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Well here's my Ke 70 next my KP that I'm trying to sell to fund the rolla! It's a 1981 2 door saloon and is pretty rare here in the uk. I intially wanted an ae86 but prices of those are rising by the minute! then went for the kp that I want to keep although it's a 2k with 4speed! Was going to get some mechanically skilled mates todrop in a 4k and k50 from a 4door ke70 but saw the white 2 door and HAD to have it :D So........... the kp is forsale! Plans for the KE are to keep it singleoverhadcam8valve tyte yo!! and sort the handling first........... any comments or ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have many of the ke yet the starlet was going to have a 4k and k50 transplant until I saw the ke70....... I really need to know where to getparts for the ke70. Where do you guys get coilovers and uprated springs and shorter shocks from?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David[RL] Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 since you're from uk I would recommend www.fensport.co.uk but you've probably heard of them before? they don't have anything for ke70, but ae86 is almost identical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oli Posted September 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 I tried fensport but they said 2 car's too old and we don't ahve anything for that car" great eh??......... heard they are not the cheapest too from some 86 owners :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David[RL] Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 most of the parts for ae86 fit ke70 too.. rear suspension is 100% identical, I guess it's the same with the front suspension too.. koni uses the same part numbers for both of them.. I guess you could use ae86 bushes on a ke70.. I've checked out a few toyota part numbers and it's the same.. I can check if there is a difference with front-springs tomorrow, they look the same I don't know if they are more expensive than other shops in the uk, but they have better prices than most of the shops here in norway, but everything is expensive here :\ hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd really appreciate that. In fact I'll have a word with my toyota buddy to see if he can see if there are parts that are similar. also when you say rear suspension 100% same you mean struts and springs etc? So I could get some uprated/aftermarket shocks and springs for an ae86 and it would fit my ke70? if so........... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st.nick Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Thats well stylin'!! Why didn't Aus get those :D Nearly as stylish as the KE30 2dr sedan!! (...nearly!!) Hahaha!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOTH Snr Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 The 2door looks sweeeet... Go a worked 5k with twin carbs and good exhaust. It would give it a sweet sound to suit the car! Listern to Teddy changing up hill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
