Hitorikos KE70 (New Daily)

[dewar]

Hey all,

After just purchasing my AE86 as a track car and pretty much deciding to sell my 180(Sil80) and my GF finally deciding to get her
drivers licence i figured i needed a new daily.

So i looked about here and didn't find what i was after and then on Ebay i found it after about a week of the auction i met the reserve
and now have gotten it.

Gotta love ebay, some bargins to be found :D

well yesterday i had a crack at cleaning up the KE it had been sitting for abit so i had to clean some leaves off and i needed to
fix my wiper motor anyways.

as it turned out the wiper motor was fine (i just had to replace the bushes cause i burnt them out)
because the wiper linkage was all rusted and fused together.

so i ripped off the scuttle panel removed the leaves and removed the arms and it was just one link that was stuffed
so fixing that now and then i'll do a full serivce:

Ryco Air Filter
Ryco Oil Filter
Bosch Spark Plug Leads
Bosch Spark Plugs (Platniums)
Coolent
20w50 Oil

(i work for a automotive dealer and can get these service parts cheap (for melb memebers))

hmm thats it for this update.

I also might have a crack at getting the rear parcelshelf made for a set of old splits i have in my room and replace
the shitty 4" speakers in the front kick panels with pioneer ones.

i'll try get more pics too!

I always loved the light blue ke70's. I rate it pretty highly. Gl with it man hope all goes well.

if you're going to bother changing the pedal box may aswell put a hydro box in there and convert it to 4ac. not a job you want to do twice if you later decide on an engine conversion and you'll be missing a hydraulic clutch. be a bit more expensive but is in no way a job you'll want to do twice!

well i had to move my car out of the drive way so i can fit in the new car to remove the engine for the ae86

nothing special but enjoy!

anyone know how to fix? or what i need to fix? this is the only thing i need to go get my RWC

[driftke70]

degrease, find exact point of leak, probably the mech/fuel pump, undo the three screws holding the two halves of the pump casing together, then make sure it is nice and flat maybe get a really nice flat file and some fine paper and make sure its dead flat, new gasket if it has one, cant remember, petrol doesnt normally mix well with stuff like blue glue and the like, so try and see if you need to get some petrol resistant sealant, cant remember if sikoflex is.

thanks mate i'll have a look in m workshop manual and see what they suggest :)

failing that i'll just get another
