Redwarf Posted June 13, 2008 Report Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) I'd say that you're not doing anything that hasn't already been done before. What do you want to use the car for? Edited June 13, 2008 by Redwarf Quote
mozzy Posted June 13, 2008 Author Report Posted June 13, 2008 well i realised that, i just ment like how good is it realy i mean in theary it sounds like it would work pretty well. it will be a daily driver mainly but a bit of track fun/drifter and abit of everything i guess. just an all round car lol I'd say that you're not doing anything that hasn't really been done before. What do you want to use the car for? Quote
love ke70 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Posted June 14, 2008 mm, 1g in ke70 is fun then the bug bites and you start aiming high... :$ mine lasted 5000km before i de-regoed it to rebuild it again with big hp in mind, and respray it etc, lots of dollars later its starting to get somewhere. just a word of warning, its not an easy fit, and the single turbo is very useful in making it clear brake and clutch. they f@$king hammer when you put a 1g in a ke70, and mine handled quite well, i think thats coz i kept the front end high and rear end low, escort rally style y0 haha. mounts arnt too bad to make when you look at the ones i have, and it sits the motor relatively low, but the sump sits down well below the crossmember so something has to be done to protect it, or you can flat sump the motor with an external pump... cheers, andrew Quote
irokin Posted June 14, 2008 Report Posted June 14, 2008 i think thats coz i kept the front end high and rear end low, escort rally style y0 haha. I was thinking more Audi Quattro style.... Weight distributions about the same too :lolcry: Quote
love ke70 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Posted June 15, 2008 haha thats pretty close to how mine sat, lower all round, but leaning back a little, that was just to keep 100mm under the sump gaurd, but it did seem to make it handle, I'm sure theres a theory behind it... I'm probably gonna wet sump it this time, to get the front lower and then drop the rear even more :lolcry: Quote
Jono Posted June 15, 2008 Report Posted June 15, 2008 it would be a beast! just don't do all the work and then get defected like your soarer. maybe get it engineered? Quote
