January 14, 201214 yr comment_577499 Hey all.. My name is Nathan, I'm 19 and from Brisbane, and I thought i'd share my love for KE70's by putting a post up of my build... A mate of mine whom which owned the car was looking to upgrade to something other than this 'pile of shit', and so with a price tag of $500 I jumped at the chance, and obviously for that price the car wasn't going to be in the best shape, The body was 99% straight (Next to no dings/Dints) But what I did get was an eye-sore of an interior and a boot full or rust, Litterely!.... Basic plans: *Drift* * 1UZ-FE 4.0L V8 (Eventually super/turbo charge) * Series 5 RX7 5speed gearbox with a custom 1 peice tailshaft * RX7 Diff *Locked* (Series Undecided) * S13 Crossmember with S14 or R31 LCA's And S13 power steering * Undecided as to what coilovers...(Reccomendations?) * Hydraulic handbrake * Obvious body/panel cut and paste (Rust), Add some colour, Wheels/tyres, Interior work (Dash), And a halfcage... Some pics of the car as purchased.... Report
