Expressions of Interest: AE86/KE70 Adj. Strut tops Tue, 27 August 2002 10:53 Go to next message
Hi all,

a mate down in Melbourne has been trying to organise a bloke to make up pillow ball mount camber-adjusting strut tops for the AE86.
rough quote so far is $350 a pair.

would any list member be seriously interested in a pair of these?
they will most likely be virtual copies of what CUSCO offer,but significantly cheaper.
I'll be buying a pair regardless if they guy does them,but thought I should offer this also to the group.

any takers?

Just waiting for a few bills to come in, if there's any money left in the kitty I might be in also.

I dont suppose there is any chance of these fitting the ra2x/cortona xt130 struts? I suppose if they did you would have said so Smile

Hi Justin, what's the difference of these that you're offering, compared to the K-Mac camber plates? (Coz K-Mac priced them fitted in the low $300.00s)

GT20v,

these tops,if the job goes ahead of course,will look similar to the pics below.
the kmac tops don't offer a lot of adjustment,where these units will;also these units are using spherical top bearings,where the KMAC units are urethane bushed,with a standard ball bearing.
as I said in my first post,these will essentially be a proper pillow ball sliding camber-adjusting strut top,like the units CUSCO and so on offer.
they should also be setback slightly from centre in the tower,to add about a degree more caster as well.

I would be in on this, but I am getting these instead:

Cusco strut tops.

$350 is a good deal, I had been looking for a while before I lined mine up. Noltec are unwilling to make them and K-MAC are unadj which is crap for more than $150.

one more pic. as I said in an earlier post,the pics attached are of a strut top made for the bloke's own car,though the design will be the same for this batch,bar the top plate stud positions.

I'll know by the end of this week if the deal will be going ahead or not.
