Hi guys.
Newbie alert. This is my first post...
first of all, yes i used the search function but wasn't able to find any info on this question, so here goes (hopefully i won't get flamed too much :lolcry: )
i owned a 4 speed manual ke70 for about 5 years and it was dead stock but was still a really fun car to drive. it was my first intro to jap cars and just how good they can be. i moved on from that and ended up in another good handling light weight rwd jap car (mx5) which over the years has been modified fairly extensively (tein coilovers, sway bars, avo turbo kit, brake upgrade, lsd diff, etc etc). the problem is that i'm a bit paranoid and i no longer enjoy driving my mx5 on the roads as i feel that it's just a defect waiting to happen. i do track days every couple of months and apart from that, the car rarely gets driven anymore. basically i drive to and from the track and then it gets parked in the garage.
my daily is a fwd later model 323 and it is pretty dire.... i need my soul back. help! i want a daily that is fun to drive!
so i'm wanting to know if it's possible to fit a 4age to a ke70 in vic, legally. i would probably do a few suspension and brake mods etc, but i'd want it to remain legal and if the boys in blue hassled me, i'd want to be able to show them engineers certificates etc.
the aim would be to have a car that is 100% legal and comfortable to drive daily, that could also be a bit of fun on the track (sprint or drift) every now and then. the street part is much more important than the track part.... i already have the mx5 for that.
finally, i have a line on acquiring a slant front ke70 cheaply thru a friend. i prefer the earlier style front end , and from reading this forum it seems that it's just a bolt up job to transfer the front panels / lights / bonnet. can someone confirm this please... ?
