    Default s13 sway, castor rod and LCA for ke70 with s13 sussy

    k mates.. running a full s13 front end.

    curios what people have used for sway bar and castor?

    use full s13 sway and castor rod with modified s13 mounts to suit the ke70 radiator support and rails? or modify the ke shit (castor,sway and there mounts) to meet the s13 lca ???

    just want peoples experience and thoughts as there is no right and wrong way to do this but yeeeeee chaps

    ALSO

    any one selling adjustable s13 LCAs so i can bring my camber and track in.. thanks

    R31 LCA's are only about 10mm or something longer than std so work perfect with S13 front into ke.

    easiest option imo is to use the standard castor rods and modify the lca....

    and yes r31 lca is a good option for reducing track, but also reduces some of the effective improvements of the s13 front end...

    ok made my decision. s13 lca s13 castor rod ae86 mounts ... cut shut lca 10mm or somthing. i was told this combo works well and the 86 mounts for sway an castor arm matches up well

    why bother cutting and shutting for a pissy 10mm. just take the track improvement and use it properly. Dont know how you think s13 castor rods will fit a ae71/ae86/ke70 mount unless you plan on remaking the body mount??

    you can use a ae86 front end with a s13 rear end, or simply redrill one hole in the s13 lca and bolt it together.

    there is also a thread with a bazillion pages that covers most/all of this anyways...

    given you placed a thread about ke70 suspension in a forum marked for 86 brz cars, i dare say you didnt excel at the searching either....

    check technical questions higher up the forum page, about 4th topic in.... s13 suspension how to information.
