November 22, 201213 yr comment_637427 So me and my friends picked up another KE70. Thought I'd make a thread. Plans are to throw all the gear from the beige car into this and get it on the road so that means; - Standard Blacktop 20v with Sam Q water kit and velocity stacks. Also has SP Tec dizzy relocation kit. Running standard ECU. - Ebay spec alloy radiator with standard AE111 thermo mounted - W55 and my short shifter - Button clutch - T18 T series - 1L surge tank - Bosch 070 - VDO VL lift pump I've already thrown the suspension and brakes from the beige car into it so that's - BC coilovers up front, 8kg springs - AE86 hubs - ADM AE86 brakes (Cheers again Rian) - AE86 PS knuckles - AJPS 50mm RCA's - BC adjustable shocks in the rear with their 6kg springs and adjustable height spring seats - Whiteline adjustable panhard rod Wheels are 14x7 -5 Chevoit Centreliney things. Look like MK1's. Pretty cool I think. It's 5 speed and I'm going to rep 4K power until it all goes down. Plan is still primarily to go drifting but want to rego this one and drive it around so the setup will remain fairly mild. Was running -2.5 degrees of camber and 1mm toe out each side which I think is kinda streetable so I'll aim for that with my next wheel alignment. I have no real time frame for the conversion but I'd like to go drifting as much as possible next year, I didn't get to do it this year so I'll be happy if I can do it on a semi regular basis in 2013. Anyway, I've only got 2 pics at the moment but will take some more in the sun soon. Report
November 23, 201213 yr Author comment_637464 much rust in this one? rims look good on it! There's a little bit but nowhere near as much as the beige car. Thanks man, I think so too. Me no understand, Rian. Looks good bro. Cheers Reed. White power, hazarr! Hot Shower!! Hazarr!! Report
November 23, 201213 yr comment_637474 Is white rare for KE70s? why is it that I hardly see that colour. Put rego on mine this morning :) Report
November 23, 201213 yr Author comment_637475 Is white rare for KE70s? why is it that I hardly see that colour. Put rego on mine this morning :) Nice man!! Keen for a drive when I get rego for this one! I don't think white's rare, I've seen a fair few of them. I think they look good in white. Report
November 24, 201213 yr Author comment_637573 So put the Whiteline panhard rod in today and went for a drive. Needs a wheel alignment but it's just amazing what "good" suspension does for the car. It felt freaking awesome. Was such a nice drive. Just need to put my 86 seat in it and get some rego, then I'll be back in a Rolla! Anyway, more pics. Report
November 24, 201213 yr Author comment_637577 Thanks man! I agree!! Can't wait to get it registered! I should really get some pics of it actually moving. After rego of course.. Report
November 24, 201213 yr Author comment_637580 Oh man, I feel you. It's such a good feeling to go on that first drive. Yours should go great after all the work. Report
November 24, 201213 yr comment_637581 Considering the amount of half assed work I've corrected lately I should hope so! Report
November 24, 201213 yr Author comment_637583 It will. We should organise a little KE70 convoy once I've got some rego. Really keen to go on a big drive. Would be cool to get some photos too. Report
