AE86DC or rollaclub are your friends.... Mine has a very basic setup... ADM sprinter front end/brakes, TRD struts, AJPS springs, modded stock R32 struts and springs cut in half, LSD (locked standard diff) Corona Lower control arms (15mm wider track, 2.5 deg camber) and new bushing in the rear end. Could prolly have a similar setup for around $1k installed..... Buy a Keto for $500, you're ready to go.

Im changing the whole setup soon....

JDM twin pot calipers and vented rotors

AJPS front coilovers w/ Bilstein adj struts, 7kg springs, Cusco camber tops,

Bilstein rear struts and AJPS 5kg springs

AJPS 35mm RCA's

Whiteline front and rear swaybars

Noltec panhard rod

Cusco Tower bar and tension rods

AE86 power steering arms for more lock.

T18 diff locked

Not cheap (Bout $2800 - $3K all up) but it'll probably handle/slide better than my R31.... all it needs is a SR20DE in it and she's ready to go...

You can also fit an entire S13 front end, using RA40 celica/910 bluebird parts.... good if you can get S13 coilovers cheap 2nd hand....

they are essentially a AE86 without takumi tax.....

Oh, ordered my new wheels today... 17 x 9 and 18 x 9.5 drifteks in white for the 31, and 15 x 8 -4 superlights in platinum silver for the '70 .... gonna look hot.

nah, havent changed my mind.... just happened to be what I wrote.... :laughing-smiley-014: 4AGE, SR20DE, N/A 13B, CA18DET... ANY of them would be spastic in a KE70

Stiill trying to sus out everything for the conversion, It's a lot more difficult than a standard 16V RWD 4AGE......

Like I said, let me know when he gets back from holidays...

And that 1st/2nd video.... those cars are exact doubles of mine LOL......

anyone know if u can get a permit to drive a defected car once it has been booked into regency and mods removed?

Yeah, go to a police station and get a clearance.... they'll come out, have a quick sus, and sign the paperwork that you can drive the car until regency or your rego runs out.

    • Best bang for buck at the moment would be a 86/brz. Good chassis,  plenty of aftermarket support and parts everywhere.   I just picked one up with some quality gear and it drives better than my old 180sx.    Also depending on what your doing and budget.  An a90 supra is my pick if want to spend more. Great chassis, solid motor, gearbox is good. Development potential is crazy. They are doing well in prod sport and time attack. All the old jdm stuff needs alot of work as most of it all bent and over priced.
    • It's basically the same platform, hence why everything bolts to everything else Kelford camshafts were recommended by Mania after they asked me what I want the car for, I said "I'll thrash it around daily and maybe take it to the track for fun" 🤣 Factory NC 2.0L cam specs: - Adv. Dur. 256 /256 - Dur @ .050 205 /190 - Lift 9.42mm/8.13mm So, as I know nothing about cam specs, all I can say is the numbers are different and it should get a little bit of lope....🤣
    • Depends on how extreme, however if you look at SMSP, they're all dominated by Hondas and M cars on amateur/street car events. 
    • Without better pictures, it won't be possible for anyone to work it out further than we have.   Start measuring, EVERYTHING. Thickness of flywheel, and all around it. You want to know is if everything parallel. If from the face of the pressure plate (that bolts to the flywheel) if it is parallel to the pressure plate face, then something is NOT parallel or equal elsewhere. Or you've bent the shit out of the fingers in the pressure plate.
    • Finally getting around to changing whole cold side. (Look at that sludge) lets see where this leads once it’s all together tomorrow.
