    Question BIG BRAKE upgrade with COILOVERS for KE30???? HELP

    Hi guys been looking around a fair bit on both rollaclub.com and here and can't seem to find too much info on a possible coilover conversion for ke30. Also wanting to know if a LSD diff conversion is possible? ANy help appreciated, I have a ke70 and looking for a ke30 2dr to put my built 5kc and k50 in. Any stronger gearbox applications that are a "easy" upgrade?

    Gearbox choices
    K - T50 bellhousings - but good luck finding one, seen 2 sell in 7 years of being a K motor modder from rare Jap KE20's
    K - W50 bellhousings - 4 spd liteace bellhousing is used with a steel case W50
    K- W55 bellhousings exist - 1999 7K powered townace

    There are a rare KP starlet LSD centers that fit the U series Jap banjo diff found in some KE30's but they're rare as hens teeth.

    TA22 T series with a small axle AE86 sprinter LSD center and custom mounts is normally the lightest upgrade diff go for. Will give you good ratio choice too.

    Front coilovers are the same as a KE70, so AE86/ Corona with weld on sleeves. You can get those bolt in kits on ebay these days, but I'd never run anything buy German, Dutch or Japanese made shocks.
