rolla van man Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 There's no such thing as "handling" in these, they just turn a little better than did from factory. Hahah Well thats true! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJM85 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 I dunno about that. My 20 is pretty sticky when flat footing 3rd though zeroundybouts. In the wet, sticky is not in its vocabulary though and it does actually require a little concerntration not to go strafing out of some corners.

Mine is pretty close to being right BUT I want it perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickn5k Posted April 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Pretty much have the handling sorted now feels pretty flat through corners now. The rear swaybar was like the front one well worth it in the end. Tweaked the "kit" bar in the cold press and changed the link pin mounts to better suit the floor. Looks like this. And how the link pin mount looks. Will also be fitting these little bad boys when the wheel nuts arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickn5k Posted April 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 sweet mate..! seemed like forever since an update glad its still rocking along..! :-P Yes definatly well overdue. Have been slowly buying up stuff to get 5k built. Really only need pistons and cam and I have the bottom end parts sorted. I need FPR, custom leads and some plugs and ill setup the full sequential EFI, on the 4k. My mate doing the exhaust mani wants pretty much everything EFI wise done, so he knows what room we have to play with. Will get some more photos up when I can figure out why they are loading wrong way up. They appear the right way as I upload them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doogs Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 Hey Stu, What's the rear bar from? Is it and aftermarket KE11 one or something else modified to fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickn5k Posted April 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) Hey Stu, What's the rear bar from? Is it and aftermarket KE11 one or something else modified to fit? It's an aftermarket one that I modded/tweaked to fit a bit better. Signiature sways bars made both of them. Now I have measurements I'm happy with I'm going to get a group buy price for the ke-1x's. Pretty sure they'll have them for the 20's too. Edited April 26, 2013 by kickn5k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good chatting with ya up at sky high man, looking forward to this new engine. Reckon those wheels should look pretty flash too. Pretty sure the ke11,17 and 18's had the borgies. Yeah mate good to catch up with you too. Peechs turned out awesome!! The paint on the wheels hasn't turned out the absolute best, but didn't want them perfect to begin with.
