    Default Dicey

    Soo . . thought it was about time I stop trawling the forums and post up a ride thread.

    Dicey is a AE71 5 Speed Manual. She was bought from West Lakes, where she resided as a drift pig.

    - Backyard Weldy
    - Makita Cut Springs
    - Grip Tap Handbrake
    - Matt Black Stockies
    - Clutch plate nearly shatted
    - License plate shifted for better cooling

    However the body was straight, and the rust was fixable. I also wanted one which I could build up myself, so being a drift pig didn't worry me



    Now she sports some better running gear and a bit of work has been put into getting her running better, thanks to S2, AJPS and Fisher Racing

    Setup as of current:
    Front: - Selby 24mm adjustable swaybar
    - AJPS 6KG springs
    - AE86 Struts
    - AJPS Ajustable Tie Rod Ends
    - AE86 Powersteering Arms
    - AJPS 40MM RCA's
    - Koni Short Stroke
    - XT130 LCA's re-bushed and ball jointed
    - Castor Bushes, with adjustment maxed out
    - Camber / Castor tops
    - AJPS Kelway Strutbrace

    Rear: - No swaybar
    - T18 Diff, with custom tailshaft
    - KYB shockies
    - AJPS Adjustable Panhad Rod

    Running 14 x 6 Delta Mesh with Yoko's currently

    Cheers Fusion

    Spoke to the engine builder today, looking at just freshening up the 4AC for now with electronic ignition, a 32 / 36 Weber, and maybe a cam of some sort. Hopefully get it done in the next month

    Cheers Fusion

    Cheers Kkustom . . . Diffs making bad noises, so it may be time to sort that out to. Not to sure what to do yet though, might just chuck a welded chunk in it for the time being.
