If you actually have every other component set up to do a CA18 conversion and the only thing you have left to do is a few mounts, then you're laughing. -------------------- QUOTE (AE92Nova @ Jun 10 2010, 04:28 PM) SO to be honest with u guys next time i hear sirens, the news will be worth whatching..

hey mate, ive just done this conversion and tried to do rb mounts. yes the ca engine mounts bolted up to factory ke crossmember with rb mounts, BUT the engine sump was about 60mm off the crossmember. so we welded custom mounts onto the ke crossmember to suit to get engine lower.

Its all the other things that come with doing an engine conversion that will give you the shits. But its all fun
