yeah, exactly the point. I'm only a learner so i can't go about thrashing my car. But since we installed the 7k it has been easier to drive and basicaly pulls in any gear. gl.

Suggestions...ke30
There is no such thing as a cheap engine conversion. Anybody will tell you that, but for a cheaper option, you could put in a 7k or 4age. Read through engine conversion forums, i'm sure that will help. Post some pics up of your car! gl

Ke70 Engine Conversion Ideas.
yeah. 4age if you have some cash to spend, 7k still needs a fair amount of cash but is simpler. Anything else becomes really costly and becomes mor difficult. And i like what you have done to the ke70. gl with it.

Quick Questionn..????
i think the translation for that is that the car is losing power in 3rd. it's one of those highly improbable stupid things that they threw into the movie.

7k Into Ke10
Yes we did do this for "extra" sump clearance as it already cleared but just. It was just to be safe lol.
-
7k Into Ke10
Just to clear some things up, we didn't need to modify the oil pick up and as the actual block of the 7k is a smidge larger we add some washers on the engine mounts to get it sitting nice. I will also try to get pics of the sump for you.

'ave A Lookie At This One

7k Into Ke10
I'm pretty sure that to fit a 7k in place where any other k-series motor once was, you HAVE TO modify the sump (cut and weld). Dad and i cut the 7K sump and then welded it back together. There are some other mods we did as well but i can't remember, so i will have to get back to you on that one. By the way, my car is a ke30 with a ke55 5 speed. Matt
