kickn5k Posted October 16, 2006 Report Posted October 16, 2006 dude love your car, where the heck do i get those guard flares from and how did you rock the motor over, was it cut on the belhousing and then rewelded if so great job as i can't see any other way it could be done. awesome rolla mate.

Brendo Posted October 16, 2006 Author Report Posted October 16, 2006 lol cheers man, they are ke25 levin copies (fibreglass) dunno where u could find some....? no, the engine mounts were played around with to get it to sit up straight i bought it like it, helps the webers breath. of course this makes the gearbox up on its side, it has a custom gearbox crossmember to accomodate this and also the gearstick is bent back towards passenger seat on almost a 45 degree angle to make it normal Quote
tenyearguarantee Posted October 16, 2006 Report Posted October 16, 2006 hey were those suspension upgrades done on the original struts? if so could i please get the model number of the springs and inserts? Quote
Brendo Posted October 17, 2006 Author Report Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) would have to find out the model numbers I'm not sure, they are ke20 hubs, KYB inserts, king springs and strup tops moved for caster/camber Edited October 17, 2006 by Brendo Quote
kickn5k Posted October 17, 2006 Report Posted October 17, 2006 Thanks the reason i asked as I'm helping on a morris 8 build and its running a 1k with webers he makes custom manifolds so that isnt a problem, but he has cut the bellhousing and twisted it so the shiter is normal, the way yours is done looks alot stronger though. I'm looking for the same sot of thing with my 11 like hillclimbs a little more, its more of a one shot deal. I'm not from tassie but i know 1:17s at symonds is a serious street/track car well done guys. Also what tyres do you use as I'm looking at yoky a032r in a hard compound. only going hard as ill also be using them for a little street duty aswell. stu. Quote
muller Posted October 17, 2006 Report Posted October 17, 2006 Holy crap, what a machine :D Hope my 20 can have as much potential as your 10 shows. Quote
tenyearguarantee Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 would have to find out the model numbers I'm not sure, they are ke20 hubs, KYB inserts, king springs and strup tops moved for caster/camber so they are standard struts with the hubs swapped? and the inserts were just bought straight from a shop or ordered specially? Quote
Brendo Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Posted October 18, 2006 so they are standard struts with the hubs swapped? and the inserts were just bought straight from a shop or ordered specially? yep they are but the strut tops have been played around with, i dunno about the inserts, id have to look back thru the history to see if they were for another model and customised or what....
