#2 KE70 budget drift project

I got no pics on the drifting day. But what i can tell is this car is lack of power. I mean really slow. The car needs a better front shocks. Needs super angle. Better fuel system. And again a whole lot more power

Without hesitation i just use the standard KE70 shocks but with a higher spring rate. Which i dont know coz i found the springs at the back of the workshop. And the only one that fits. Coupled with 2" spacers

Custom the knuckle for super angle setup. The poor way..

Some poor RCA that i found couple of years ago.

And adjusting the caster. All thing wasnt as i planned. The plan was only to do the super angle. But with that angle the tires will rub against the inner wheel well. So i needed the spacers to clear that, but the tires will rub againts the back of the wheel well. So i needed to adjust the caster 2 inch to the front

The result is...

Angle is alot.. but its too damn heavy. Since i was running late i decided to try this setup at speedcity. All the thing i did was on the same day before the event

As soon as i lowered the jack. New problem emerge. I need to cut the fenders.. Not some minor cut but a lots of cut here and there. The result is.. a flower on my fender.

I dont care if its a flower or what. As long as i can join that night its pretty much draw a smile to my face. It was a great night! No more spun out.. angle was awesome. Car didnt break a sweat.

No issues that night. Just some minor dent here and there.. no big deal :)

Now its time for the next upgrade

cheerio
