Hi all

 

I'm thinking about putting a 7k into my ke35 coupe.

My coupe at the moment has a 3k-c with a ke70's 5 speed and a stock diff.

 

My main questions are-

1) If i am going to have upgrade my gearbox and diff

2) Are there any major upgrades needed

3) And i have herd that it should bolt straight in but i may have to change the sump

to a 5k sump is this true

 

Thanks heaps

Luke :hmm:

1) No

2) No

3) Yes

umm raven aren't the 7K blocks exactly 11mm wider than 5K and down to K motors so wont ONLY 7K sumps fit them and you have to bash and modify them as no other sump will fit?

 

So to my knowledge to question 3 also is a NO.

 

Also where did you get your 7K from?

i havent got the 7k yet but i may have 1 lined up from a mate

Just as a side note here.... I can obtain and import 7K-E (injected) motor/gearbox/loom from indonesia rather cheaply... I have a friend who imports furniture and miscellaneous crap by the containerload... these engines were released in the Toyota Kijang and were produced from 1994-2004 and sold by the bucketload... the only thing more common in indonesia than a kijang is bad teeth

"only thing more common in indonesia than a kijang is bad teeth"

 

hahahha, love that :hmm:

Go into engine conversions forum and on the second page go into " 7k into ke10" i know you don't have a ke10 but it will be a huge help. Any questions, pm me.

bad teeth and bintang.... aaah the memories. love the place though... cheap everything, corrupt police, no such thing as a defective vehicle :hmm:

cameron: I believe the blocks are taller due to increased stroke, but width wise I've heard of people putting 7k's straight into cars that were fitted with 3k and 4k motor's, you just have to change the sump and possibly the oil pickup over.

Ok here we go, the sump WILL NOT fit from a 5K the 7K block is wider by 11mm,you will need to modify one or the other.

 

Yes they have a taller deck height and if your exhaust is close to the floor it may well touch with the 7K in there.

 

The engine mounts can be made to fit woith some shimming in a KE20 onwards.

so are you going to do it or what???????????????

ok now my mate wants to put the 7k into his bro's car so now i don't have a 7k lined up so I'm gonna pull together some more cash and go looking for another 7k :jamie:

Just get a 4AGE

nar I'm going to stick with the 7k easier and cheaper :jamie:

Easier? Much of a muchness really.

 

I know what I'd choose..... and it wouldn't be a K motor....
