rowantsarolla Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Wow, some awesome Rolla's here, and such a good source of info on running gear! Car: 1979 KE55 Coupe. Motor & Driveline: 4k, 4speed. Extractors. Keen to go down the path of a 4/5k rebuild with a cam regrind, carb, flow mods, compression etc... Just trying to gather some feedback from other people as to how much better their motor goes from said mods. Currently getting inspiration from Evan_G's rides thread! Suspension & Brakes: Standard Fronts, chopped springs. 2" lowering blocks, rear. Smashed shocks- not cool. Sussing out short stroke shocks for front and rear + leaf reset and stiffer coils, larger swaybars. Also looking for a good front strut/ brake conversion package- can't wait for one to pop up locally! Wheels & Tyres: 13" Jelly beans. Interior: Standard + cheap aftermarket bucket seat, tacho and woodgrain steering wheel (after a dished racing wheel). Body: KE30? Grille, WORST paint job ever (grinder marks, runs, bad rust repairs...) Dark tint. Oah, and BONNET PINS! Other info: This is my 4th KE55, 1st coupe/ hardtop. Love it though, my biggest issue being terrible handling! Cheers, Ro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
