    Cusco tops










    Ke30 radius rods and brackets





    Cool little capella that I fell inlove with...






    well come a long way.


    KE20 crossmember, all standard but I unpicked the mounts and moved them out 15mm to line up perfectly. Here's a picture of what I mean.







    Then mig welded the mounts and put a few plug welds... that's not moving anywhere anytime soon.





    This shows the 30mm crossmember space down ... no I won't be using oversized nuts lol. Hopefully have the 30x40mm solid bar made by this afternoon.





    This picture show's how far back the engine is, I've got a few solutions to the coilpack problem.





    With a 40mm RCA, Cold bent strut to re-allign the King Pin Angle. As you can't see, theres about 30mm from the 7" rim to the strut and thats all square... so I'm going to get abit more camber from the strut. Also show's how low the motor is, it's a lot lower then a 4k in a KE10, although it's not lower than the sill's.. Plan is to make a 12mm Bash plate that goes from the front of the car to the crossmember to protect the nice beams sump...





    Nice fit so far... very happy with it.





    Decent amount of lock, with a 195/45r14 tyre, abit of massaging on the inner guard and some more castor I'll be able to get a lot more lock. although may need the front of the guard choppped out to get lock... decisions decisions.

    bought the Kit from Ireland, Milling the rear housing myself and I'll pull the selector shaft out and either outsource the cut or just try mount it in the mill and cut it with the mill... Dunno yet but at the moment, i'm shortening the selector shaft and the rear housing part where Dad's pinky is by about 35mm so the Gearbox can sit about 40mm higher as it will clear the Central floor brace. Gives it just that little bit extra clearance and will make the motor sit 100%

    BTW this was a copy paste from my other thread... for the people who don't know what a LEEN conversion is... here's a pic

    Cheers guys, its motivation which keeps the spirit of every project strong. Going to numerous rides in a standard KE10 still puts a smile on my face, Going for a hoon with a mate and his well known 3SGTE KE70 also put's a smile on my dile. Cheers for the compliments guys, will continue posting to this forum!

    SUPRA W58 gearbox mount, needs a little modification to fit





    fabbed up some sort of a gearbox cross member... shame I forgot about the fact that Gearbox mounts are meant to bolt off... so I might make another one later down the track when I could be bothered.





    My welds are improving







    With the notch to the central floor brace, It allowed me to raise the gearbox nearly 60mm making the engine and gearbox level which allowed the 4th coilpack to be removed. Very happy with the positioning of everything so far.

    Getting over the whole firewall/tunnel thing, so did abit of sticker bombing on this car to annoy some old people





    Flush with the guards..





    Desired ride height, sump is around 50mm off the ground here.


    I've got abit of a problem. I need more camber. With a KE20 crossmember, Ke70 LCA to keep the bottom of the wheel under the guard and the Cambertops wound all the way in ( as close as I can get it to the tower ) there is still positive camber. The only thing I can think of is to get 40mm RCA's to re-allign the roll centre, Cold bend the struts and if that doesn't do it chop the tops of the strut tower's out and push them out to get more camber. I only want around 0 to -3 camber.
