[ca18de in a ke70]

hey i plan on installin an SR20 in my ke70......ur ride looks smooookin.....i would like to know what setup u used for getting the hydraulic type transmission to work in the ke70....thanksss

[Fat Bastard Customs]

sorry i havent replied but i havent checked this post for ages.

i used a standard ae86 clutch master and the standard sr clutch slave, works well and its not to heavy (my nan can use it)

 

UPDATES:

fix front end (note to self, kangaroos suck ass :P )

get hilux diff and locright center ( as seen in zoom magazine)

put longer top four link arms in rear

convert rear to watts linkage

get better g/box

rose joint rear

paint car all the same colour (tired of kids pointing at the "rainbow car")

new coilovers allround

 

speaking of which, can anybody recomend a good coilover brand? Theres freakin heaps around and I want to know which ones offer good adjustability, performance and cost, does anybody have any experiences they'ed like to share?

 

also, does anybody in sydney have a front beaver panel they would like to part with? (stupid roos)

the hilux diff offers good results??...it holds up well to the SR??...a silvia diff would have been too wide to fit u think??

[CD_rollaman]

Hilux diff should easily hold the power. They are an 8 inch diff, with fat axles.

Your mags are HORN. I wish I could have pics of my rolla at Mt Panarama but sadly Adelaide is a little more then 5 minutes away.

 

You could get some AJPS coilover, his web site is www.ajps.com.au

 

Keep us informed and can we have more pics??? PLEASE!!!!

or if you want them a little cheaper than AJPS....

[andro0o]

beau,

 

i lurrrve your car, hows ben liking his new 71, has the work began yet..? i was curious if u could post up or even pm me a like 'how to' on getting t-18 bumpers to fit on a ke ;)

 

 

thanks...

[Fat Bastard Customs]

I'll post more pics when i've got something to post, if anybody wants any particular pics let me know and i'll see what i can do.

 

ca18de in a ke70: silvia diff is to wide and as CD_rollaman said, hilux is tuff as

 

and andro0o, ben is likin the car, nothin has been done as yet (its been 3 days dude) but we're probably going to pick & payless next weekend to get a rear drivers window, some chrome window winders and some other bits and pieces. Hopefully the 5 speed will be going in in the next fortnight, but we'll see how things go. With he T-18 bumpers, its adeadset pain in the ass to make them fit a KE70, the easiest way would be to get the plastic end caps off the jap spec bumpers and modify the T18 bumpers to suit them. Still a pain tho.

was the SR20 vvl hard to install and how was the fabrication for the engine mounts??..was the wiring tricky??...what did u use to actuate the solenoid for the vvl??

[ca18de in a ke70]

also what bout the cross members...were they custom made or did u have to do a slight fabrication ??

[Fat Bastard Customs]

car is running the complete nissan computer so the wiring is as nissan intended, i paid a guy that goes by the name of sideshow to wire it up for me.

 

the crossmember is stock but i cut off the engine mounts and fabricated new ones to suit the sr.

::UPDATES::

I figured i'd better update my pics so they work :yes: and add a few new ones, the cars all the same colour now and ive got some jdm headlights coming and hopefully a front lip if my pm gets replied to, goin out today to find out about some tein bits and to maybe buy a KE70 van, pics

 

 

i really like that last pic, livin in penrith now asweel, i just visit bathurst

a few more detailed coilover pics, all this stuff is pretty and welded properly/painted now

 

 

this is what i want to do next, sort of :)

 

 

i want to copy this setup but put equal length rear four link bars, a watts linkage setup, and a little different with the front struts but this is the general idea :P

[cuzzo]

Hey buddy,

 

spotted this today i think i was in penrith(can't remember)

 

it looks hot!
