NickZ Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 (edited) "Oh no not another thread", Yes its me again. This is my Datsun 1200 ute thats has more Toyota parts than Datsun. Upgraded to a 4AGE 20V, T50 Box and Microtech all from my 2 door KE30 and it already had KE30 front struts, LCA, Tie rod ends and steering arms. More pics as i go, but this was 4 hours work so far including pulling out the old engine. Engine mounts on the Xmember will be next and by the looks of it its going to take abit of fabrication work.

chrisandliz[RL] Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Nice Work, I'm so happy to see a toyota engine go into a Datsun/Nissin. So much better than the other way around ;). You deserve a "Gold Star" Chirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickZ Posted September 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Todays progress. With a small amount of modification the ke30 front X member bolted in, so no fabrication was needed for the engine mounts, its all bolted in.
