Alright, incoming noob question... I currently have a broken JDM 16v in my car and would like to swap it out for a unbroken 20v :). If i do the swap I will buy a AE111 half-cut.


1. Which bits and pieces can I swap over from my 16v to make the black top RWD?

2. What has to be done to convert the engine to RWD?

3. Please give me any info/tips I need to carry out the conversion!


I am sure these questions has been asked 1000's of times but I did a search and couldn't find a thread to answer my questions. If a thread already exists, just point me in the right direction.

Cheers.

1. use the engine mounts, wanter pump, alternator and bracket.

2.Cooling system. Rear backing plate, side plate and water outlet.
Redrill 16v extractors, aftermarket ecu and coils (optional but recomended)

3. Research! Make it neat and easily servicable.

Probly more on 1 and 2 but I can't remember

Sweet, I was wondering about extractors... good to know they are re usable.
