I just recently done my brothers ke70 to 4a-c,same kinda deal......had the running doner car there etc,this has been far more involved i must say!
Done a fair few basic swaps before this though,like a few bluebird 2ltrs into older dattos,stanza's,180b's etc ,302 to 351 in a fairlane,and converted a stock n12 pulsar into a turbo........theres a few other bogan spec conversions me and a few mates done back when I was a kid....I wont go there,the fairlane's bad enough...

But basically if I had the RWD loom and everything there,yeah no problem..I'd be able to an age into a ke70.
Will be looking into going to age in my bro's car next year some time,cross that bridge when i come to it,hahaha

But cheers,good to have some feedback on the build Time.......i've Had one mate helping out Yesturday and today...But mostly with spanner monky shit,that I could tell him exactly what to do and how to do it...and I've had to crack most of the bolts for him too,hahahaha

Good times!

Cheers
Josh

lol getting me all pumped about my next project (when i sell my car grrrr i hate selling).

ive never done an engine conversion before, plenty of welding type stuff and suspension conversion but no engines. i can see myself losing track of what goes where lol and the carbie to efi system sounds painful.
do you have to like get an efi tank or something? uprated fuel pump?

[shift_rook]

my brother in law stole my SR wing on Tuesday!!











Got it back yesturday....Professionally Painted up in Flat Black!!
I didn't like the gloss,and there was a few runs and blemishes in it before.
Looks mint!

I'll finish it up today....might not be able to get the exhaust done properly until monday,
But I'll spot weld it into place at least so i can bring it back from the shed!
Cant wait.....might runt a temp 45deg bend,no muffler and poke it out before the back wheel....hahaha,would sound sick!

[Joshie_Mcslide]

Done!!

Exhaust is still under the white car....didn't have flange gaskets so i didnt bother cutting it off today,I'll pick some up in the morning and get on it!

Stoked though! It's turn key start...No Drama's,No Fuck ups!

Done!
