Well we had a good day. Sorted out suspension woe's out! I'm sure Luke's going to write up something on what we did haha so here's a few pictures of what we got upto this weekend.
Strut bender
Luke thinking his cool....
After a few months of having 2 passanger side 86 struts... i realised the day before driving 3 hours to Lukes... that I had 2 of the same struts... so drove all around sydney to picked up a few sets of 86 struts, ended up cutting down a set of struts at lukes to bend this morning.... New sleevekit and a shitload of parts are on their way for my front end!! Car will finally be complete in the front end department!
just removing the dodgy sleeve kit.
just played around with suspension today....
consists of:
Cusco tops, cusco top perch, 8kg springs, wholesale bottom perch machined to fit springs, sleeve kit cut in half... 86 super short struts, 86 hubs, fc calipers, civic discs
undecided on shocks atm.... running TRD blues.
anyway sussssspension should be sorted in the next couple days.
ANYWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Just waiting on AJPS package to arrive to bolt front end together. Firewalls booked in, in 2 weeks for Firewall, tunnel, rear tunnel, box cut into the rear floor for diff to sit into..

Nah lot's of updates just forgot to update 86dc!
The car's not running... the car's currently at my mates workshop getting a firewall and tunnel put into it. I can't wait... it's going to take a few weeks but i got plenty time to wait.
i'll just dump a few pic's here
Sold a KE10 to Luke
Sold an Ma61 to a fellow Ae86dc drift nut haha!
The car at its set ride height...
slight poke in the front end department
purchased a cheaper alternative to quads than Celica_Ra45's nice cast TRD copys.
been tinkering with daihatsu's lately...
coilovers
Very fun little car.
ANYWAY.. got some pics of the Ke10
ITB adaptor
There we go. I'll upload more pics later when its all 100% bolted together
So....
SSR mesh all round, or SSR mesh and SSR mk1's on rear? What should I do? Leaning towards SSR Mesh all round with white centres and polished lips.
I decided to go with MESHIES ALL AROUND....
but for engineering, I will run steel 14x5.5" chasers...
Hopefully running soon... Tailshaft is getting made, once the firewall and tunnels done i'll get all the brake lines sorted, hook up my wilwood pedal box... start bolting it together.
For the rear end, All i'm going to do is run the flattened and stiffened Leaf springs, run an adjustable panhard rod and that's all. Will see how bad the tramp is.... if its terrible i'll go triagulated 4 link yo!
cheers!
i like the Mk2's on the rear and mesh up front.
let us know if you have any vibration issues with the 1 piece tail shaft... heard of a few guys having this issue.
mk1s alround. 13s.
Mesh alround, keep silver centres ;D
so perfect, it had to be re-posted!!
picked up another pair of meshies... 14x7.5...... $200 with decent 185/55's! cheering. Get them sandblasted, polish DEM KRAZI LIPZ then paint the centres silver and i'm done with wheels for a while! I bought a pair of Wattanabe's 15x7 0 offset :')
please tell me your rockin this KE10 at Raleigh?!!!!
