mungi mods Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 i think like this... paint sucks but you can get the idea Quote
styles d Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 this thing is insane! love the mk3's, gonna look sick fully polished up. :cool: Quote
benzo Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 Definitely do not paint them how mungi mods said. Only the centre should be painted, and the full centre. Quote

Roo Posted November 14, 2009 Author Report Posted November 14, 2009 not shiny enough and i love this pic reckon it looks like a toy car Quote
13BT_KE20 Posted November 16, 2009 Report Posted November 16, 2009 IMO i think the offset looks ridiculus and i have no idea howd you get away with driving it like that. You would be pulled over straight away over here and defected. Clearly need flares, some decent size tyres would help it handle better to.... Quote
AE25 Posted November 16, 2009 Report Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) everyone is quite opinionated aren't they.. i'll jump in with mine then :P I'm liking the original brown (chocolate?) don't change it. mk3's are awesome, they look great with a flat aluminium center and semi-polished lip. i also thought the early type indicator corners looked bloody good on it, pity one was broken. jdm styles ftw! Things i think would look better if changed... wheel position. the rear is sweet, could do with original ke20 axles but redrilled to 114.3x4.. this'll pull each wheel in 10mm or so, giving you more tyre clearance on the wheel arch. and are those tyres snow rated or something haha. bit too tall and too narrow imo. a directional tread 175.65.13 or similar maybe? the fronts, um, i think this is a bit too much for a non flared guard. i'd wind some camber plates all the way in then adjust the lca length to suit. install some rca's while you're at it. if you're going for the bosozoku look then you should dump that thing on it's arse. seriously. good luck on scrapage issues and law enforcement. whitewalls belong on pre70's cars or stocko steelies imo.. :blush: you're only giving it that 'i wannabe an oldschool car' look to it. its already looking sweet! one other thing.. how come the panels look bare.. ie wheres all the chrome trims gone? is this some delux model that didn't come with them or did someone debadge it? your rear sway bar.. i can't see that it would do anything.. i know how it is supposed to work.. but from the pic it looks like you've got it mounted to the leaf platforms both ends.. and since these mounting points are bolted solid to the diff.. they aren't going to move! this type of sway bar mounting should be trying to equalise the variation in angle of the leaf spring in relation to the chassis (or diff links in a 5link system). how you've got it wont have any variation. food for thought. lookin good anyways.. more low down and better tyres ftw!

Roo Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Posted November 16, 2009 if i keep it I'm going to get some 185/60/13 A048R for it she will be right, when she lower i will give the guards abit of a roll so they don't poke out didnt put the swaybar in it came like that, removed it becuase it looked homo Quote
mungi mods Posted November 16, 2009 Report Posted November 16, 2009 tyres ... a little roll and flare and 1.5 inches lower........... don't sell it Quote
Roo Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Posted December 14, 2009 ok she is sold pending payment, don't have time to build her up don't want to sell her but she is just going to go to waste sleeping on my driveway Quote
BLWN20 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Posted March 28, 2010 Hey, I know this is sold but I'm after some information on the bits on this car. Just interested to know the whereabouts these days of the yellow ke20 they came off. The bits I'm talking about would be at least the bonnet,diff,LCA's and i think there may be more. Quote
Roo Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Posted March 29, 2010 they all live on the brown car, the yellow car had rust in the rails, so it went all onto the brown one bonnet is on it, i sold the diff centre to the guy with the matt black ke20 drag car, rest of the diff is living at the tip, lcas went with the car Quote
