    all you will need is ae86 steering arms. the rest will bolt in once you have them.

    might be an idea looking into getting some RCA's also while the struts are out.

    theres a fair bit of info around though, might be an idea to check it all out as these questions have been answered a few times.

    if your also after a brake upgrade, you should get the corona struts and brakes and then convert them to coilover.
    That sorts the brake upgrade and the coilovers. Also they allow for a MUCH better shock diameter than the ke70 struts. So you can run better shocks!

    So to get them to fit the only part you need is ae86 steering arms. BUT if your getting some you should get the power steering version cos that gives you quicker and more lock.

    AND while you've got all that shit out you should do something to get more camber.
    So you could get adjustable strut tops which would be good cos it allows adjustment, or you could get some corona control arms which will give you around neg 2 degree camber. ( i think xt130 is the model number).
    Also you could get a lock spacer to go in your steering rack while your at it.

    buy these then buy a coil over kit and convert them to coilover. Failing that buy them and send them to AJPS OR SHAKOTAN OR CUSTOM COMPACT ( ithink) and get them to conver them for you. this also makes getting the upgraded shocks, RCAs, control arms or adjustable strut tops, easy because you can get them at the same time!
