Ke70 Upgrade

[Scott_87]

Yes i have how to much a tough k and the thread but I'm asking from peoples personal experience on there opinions.

 

I have a ke70 with a recently put in recon 5k and 5 speed box, i have extractors and 2inch exhaust and a 32/36 weber. What would people reconmend I could do in the future? I would like to mayb improve steering, handling and braking but not looking at spending the world.

 

Are there interchangable parts from other models or series that would improve the stock without the price tag?

 

thanks in advance Scott

Also I'm fairly sure my thrust bearing is gone, is it worth replacing that by itself or while out getting the clutch done? What radiator would also be a good upgrade? Whe installing motor was told I'd need one in very near future.

 

thanks again

Use the search function buddy, theres thread after thread where this has been covered.

 

You can make it ok with wreckers parts, but if you really want it to handle, then you will have to spend some good money on high quality dampers and springs, and nolathane bushes etc.

 

Suspension eats money but is very rewarding to play with as far as driving goes.

Sorry its a ke70, did have a search mate tried ke70 suspension but got nothing so tried ke70 and got endless amounts of pages as suspected.

 

Was purely asking people opinions on what there experiences are, new to this coralla thing and wanna get to know my car and parts which can but upgraded, hence joining the rollaclub!

[OniBerserker]

86 suspension parts. it aint cheap but its worth it

look in peoples project threads here and on ae86drivingclub.com.au

heaps of info around

[Scott_87]

Cheers man.

 

Had a look alot of technical stuff and for some1 with car knowledge as myself it flies over my head, I'm at the very base of knowing about cars

[mungi mods]

XT 130 struts, lower control armsand power steer arms are a worthwhile and cheap upgrade with cut commodore springs in the front

gives you bigger brakes and 2.5 degrees of negative camber plus more lock

for the rear cut falcon springs out of a wagon are a worthwhile upgrade with new short stroke shocks

decent set of wheels and tyres are a neccessary upgrade

Kamei lip for the front from Little red Spirit will improve the looks department

flared guards ....makes em look tough

so many mods that can be done cheaply just read through rollaclub rides for inspiration....

[Scott_87]

thanks heaps mate was starting to loose faith, seems that the only people who write are the people who have something lodged!

 

I'm sorry if funny enough people ask questions on a forum!

[irokin]

Asking intelligent questions backed up with research you've already done = good.

 

Asking to be spoon fed = baaad.

[Scott_87]

Hence people trying to do research by asking questions, or did you always have the knowledge you do know?

[OniBerserker]

Nope, i asked stupid questions and was rude till they suspended me. then i started reading everything that i could find. :y:

 

You will find that most questions you will ever want to ask have already been asked and answered.

There is a lot more information around about ke70 modifications nowdays than there was 4 years ago.

 

and if all else fails you could shoot pm's at owners of keto's asking random questions.
