as the topic says.. what are some cheap engine conversions into a ke70..

 

I'm thinking maybe a 4age or somthing... how easy do they fit ??

or a ca18det...

4AGE - CA18 - SR20 are all viable options, 4AGE would be the easiest, but best to start with an AE71 (same shape as the KE70) just they have all the hydraulic clutch and A Series Crossmembers (4AGE pretty much drops straight in then).

SR20 would be tricky as they have a rather large bellhousing....not impossible though...

well its just plain logic, the bigger the engine, the bigger the shoe horn you require to get it in ;)

Get a T18 and use that crossmember, then build an insane T motor... cross flow head, 1.6 / onwards... the limits are your mind ;)

 

(and the $!)

 

if i had to build a nasty Ke70 / Ae71, i would be using a T motor ;)

anybody got a f***ing big shoehorn I could borrow?

nah sorry...how about this angle grinder??

what about a ca18de motor in to the ke 70??

DETs another story. Ive seen them hitting 9,000rpm....

yea well ive got the motor ecu and loom for one sitting here doin nuffin...

 

i havent got a ke70 yet if use think that... ive got one i can buy..

$500 ... 5spd man, don't know what motor, sun roof, umm yea pretty good nick...

 

just not happy with the motor crappy carby shit :)

lol wots the price for a 4age then ???

thats cause they are all loking for insane K motors.....

 

cause k motors have more class......

 

Bwahahahahaha...... i am evil :)

how hard would it be to kit a ca18det into the ke70 then ????

 

what would need to be done etc.... ??

yea look ive read that thread.. doesnt give much info...

 

just asking like whats needed.. if anyone knows.. or how hard itll fit ..

 

a ke55 is different to a ke70...

I have been thinking of that conversion myself. but the engines here (Tassie) are around $1000 mark for a CA18DET.

$450 for 5 speed gearbox.

Ive got the microtech ecu alerady fitted to my ke70 so that part is easy for me and bigger radiator.

 

My biggest problem is CASH..I don't have any :jason:
