June 9, 201412 yr comment_683962 Hello there I'm the owner of a ke70 and i'm planning to do the 4age conversion alongside upgrades to the suspension (coilovers, ae86 suspension all round, ae86 brakes, etc) Now i need some advice on whether or not do the engine conversion first and then the suspension or vice versa? The suspension i can do no my own but the engine conversion i cannot. So what do you guys recommend doing first? Thanks in advance Report
June 9, 201412 yr comment_683963 Do the suspension and brakes first. No point making it fast if you can't stop. Report
June 9, 201412 yr comment_683970 If you can do suspension and brakes you can do a 4age engine conversion! But yeah suspension and brakes first, while collecting parts for your 4age. Report

June 10, 201412 yr comment_684007 I taught myself off the internet. Just googled heaps of shit. Read a bunch of diagrams. Report
June 13, 201412 yr Author comment_684099 Ok, thanks for the advice. One more thing. I'm planning on buying a lot from technotoytuning in 1 buy. I'm going to write my list of things here, and i would appreciate it if somebody here could tell me if all these things will fit onto my KE70. AE86 big brake kit (t3 kit) AE86 OEM hubs AE86 4-links AE86 lower control arms AE86 outer tie rods and steering knuckles AE86 tension control rod AE86 lateral bar/panhard rod I already bought the AE86 BC racing coilovers. Will these parts all fit? Because i have doubt about the tension control rods. Remember that these are all from Technotoytuning. Thanks Report

June 13, 201412 yr comment_684106 I have large doubts about the 4 link, the US have different diffs to us. What do you plan on using this car for? I would say half of that stuff is a waste of money. I'd just go 86 brakes and get new rotors and some good pads like project mu. If you just want a bit longer control arms I'd go KE30/55/XT130 or look up the other options. Only bother with the knuckles/tierods if your drifting. Tension Rods look fine to me and again if unless your planning on drifting or heavy track work I wouldn't bother. But by all means go for it if you want to spend the dosh Report
June 13, 201412 yr Author comment_684107 Well, when i order the 4-links for a ke70 and ae86. In my shopping cart is says that i have 2 times the 4-links for AE86, same for lateral bar and tension control rods so i guess they are the same. I don't really believe that some stuff is waste of money because i don't like to do half work. I'm planning on building this car to my "show" car and not a drif missle or some kind of wrecked KE70 with the rust covered away by fibreglass... Thats why i want to order the best possible parts i can get for my car so it will last for a long time. That's going to cost you a fortune! Does the big brake it come with brake caliper brackets? No, thanks for the tip. Report
