You will be able to use those tie rod ends on the other crossmember, they look like stock AE86/KE70 items.

I can drive around to get parts for you if you like.

XT130 ftw.

Also you need a low pressure fuel pump, I think it has a vl one? Something around 3-4PSI. Or it will fuck with the float in the weber.

I have ae86 calipers and braided lines if you want them - just need to make sure they fit your ke70 struts

jakel
4th May 2011, 03:28 PM
ae86 calipers will not fit on ke70 struts.

ae86 calipers will not fit on ke70 struts.

Im not sure why you would use ke70 struts when t18 or ae86 are easily obtained.

Im running t18 struts/brakes in my ke70 atm. Stops alright with the 4k lol. in saying that im about to throw new t18 rotors and hpx pads in the front, convert a t series diff to corona disc with new discs and again hpx pads for when my 3tc goes in.

I said the same about my ke70, yet i still have it a few years on...

Now i find myself spending more money on it than my long term ae86 build...they are so fun to drive/thrash and quite addictive...

sorting out reasonable suspension setup has manifested into a 3tc, 6 speed gearbox, disk t series, full spool and host of other bits arrgggg...can quite easily see it turning into a 2L high comp 3tc within the next 12 months lol

haha nice, i love my sil though. i thought about reshelling it though.
i found a cheap rolling ceffy shell fairly cheap so this is on the cards of selling it.
me and dad really wanan skid it before i do anything though..

ive got mine for sale for $100 just needs the caliper pistons cleaned up other than that the rotors are machined and they have brand new wheel bearings, can even drop it off for a bit of fuel money if you can't come pick it up.
