sssx Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 So decided to start a build thread for this to document my progress or lack of Its a 87 ke70 2door. slant front which is what I prefer. yes sick mind I know! Got it road legal a couple of weeks ago after nearly 2 years of sitting in the back yard neglected. Wof list filled the page and comments section aswell Anyway pics cos thats whats up failed wof for stretch tyres obv. wagon space filled with steelies to make it lower for the pic/failed only an inch lower wheels are probably worth more than the car haha. looking at this pic it needs alot lower in the front bit of rust repair for wof body is beat up to fcuk but Im not worried about that. plans that may happen install 2t and t50 thats sitting in my garage lower front more with 2t/cut springs if that dosent work to my satisfaction have fitted 2inch blocks will upload pics when I find my camera cable sorry if this is the wrong section I dont really consider a slant front k70 oldschool and this is why I had to get it legal. drove it round for a couple of months like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sssx Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Pics with the 2inch blocks in Keen to go down another inch at the rear, 2 inches at the front but probably shouldnt as chch roads are so shit at the minute Also got pulled up yesterday with it in this state. I was expecting to get reamed with fines for stretch and lowness but got sent on my way with nothing. win! cop said he thought I had a flat tyre when he saw it drive through the intersection in front of him sills are at 100mm but theres structural business underneath that hang down a bit more black eye cheers Adrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kseries.rookie Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I know you're not supposed to post on these but, are you planning on making a discussion thread? Id be interested in finding out the way to painted your interior parts.. and why your 2" lowering blocks make your car lower!! *jelous face* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssx Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 discussion: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=33788 To paint the dash parts I just scuffed the paint already on them with one of those green scotch pads. Washed the parts in the sink like washing dishes, let them dry propery Couple of coats of white undercoat, couple of coats of satin black. Just the cheap 7 dollar cans from supercheap, it turned out alright though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssx Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 Picked up these yesterday, stoked! They are for a starlet but Ill rebuild them on my struts and sell off what parts I dont need. Camber tops may already be spoken for but anyone interested in shortened struts for a starlet? Ill get some measurements of how much they are shortened later today.
