blinded's KE70 build

[blinded]

Update finally:

- Coilovers remade and in. Much better than before.
- New rear springs slightly lower than previous ones.
- 4AGTE has begun and should be completed withing the next few months if all goes well.


Have most of the parts to do the conversion, but am waiting to pick up an AE71 that I can strip for the gearbox and other necessary bits.



I think that is it for the moment. Havn't really had time or motivation to do anything to it, but it has been going strong for a daily. 5K hasn't missed a beat so can't complain about that

More progress...sorta.



Engine is basically fully assembled. Just need to find an Air Temp Sensor and it is done. (Someone let me know if they have one!!)

Should be getting a Wolf 3D v4 ECU to run it. Mate had one for sale, cheap, so I couldn't refuse Also have a loom on its way to me, so pretty much should be able to really get the ball rolling on this thing very soon! Can't wait, pretty bloody excited about it.

so your gunna run it with a t50? how much boost you planning on running? t50's dont last too long with boost from what i've heard

[blinded]

Yeah gonna run with a T50 for a little bit, while I save up the parts for a W series conversion. I do plan on being pretty easy with it until then though. I know a T50 isn't ideal, but so long as I treat her with a bit of respect, it'll do! Boost wise I only plan on around 12-15psi. Going to keep it nice and safe whilst the T50 is behind it as it is still going to be my daily. I guess time will tell how long it lasts

thats a pretty decent looking manifold. kelyway?
and what do you mean by built?

Man, 12-15 psi is still a lot of power. You will make at least 150kw atw. And i think as long as you dont do any clutch kicks etc then the t-50 will hold out fine, just dont put too much load on it. Loving the build also man, your 4a looks mint!

Also, it just occured to me then, but if your using a standard gze flywheel, it wont fit inside the t-50 bellhousing.

[blinded]

No idea what manifold it is. Has no markings on it anywhere, but it does look very nicely made!

What do you mean my built?

[blinded]

Yeah from what I have been told, 17psi netted roughly 170Kw, so at 12psi it will still be more than enough fun while I save for a W series box. And I don't plan on doing heaps of clutch kicks or 5000rpm drops lol Maybe one or two when I first get it going

Hmm...Well at the moment I don't have a flywheel sorted, so I guess I'll just have to make sure that I get a standard smallport/bigport one? Thanks for the heads up anyway mate

[-ollie-]

Yeh, i think 4ac is no good. Its only got 6 bolts and the smallport will have 8 i think. Yeh, normal smallport will be fine, 212-215mm will definately fit.
