Sidewinder Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 wires are wires, regardless of brand. find what you want, find where u need it to go - solder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke70black Posted October 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 alright that sounds pretty easy then, what about the engine mounts does anyone think there will be heaps of mods to them ? an will the gearbox of a sr20 (5 speed) will the be any majob issues with fitting that in ?

adam-__- Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Have a little search through google for people who have done the SR into *E7* conversion. The first link that pops up should be some help. Some people modified their gearbox tunnel, some didn't. Not sure what the reason was with that. Mounts, a little modifying here and there, you'll see when you look at some other people's builds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr33nm0nk3y Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 (edited) alright that sounds pretty easy then, what about the engine mounts does anyone think there will be heaps of mods to them ? an will the gearbox of a sr20 (5 speed) will the be any majob issues with fitting that in ? its been done a few times, just have a quick search for build threads in the projects/members rides area.. (hah! adam just beat me in the reply) id dare say you'd have to make custom mounts for the box and motor.. smash the sr's onto the 4a's and weld away, if the motor sits out the bonnet it doesnt matter, street cred :cool: or, bolt in option; get a 4agze motor, remove the charger, buy a ebay manifold (or make one, or buy a *insert jap brand name here* manifold) bolt on t25/t28 dependant on your tolerance to lag, fit cooler, make pipes for exhaust / cooler.. upgrade injectors, turn boost up, drive to work with big grin talk to some importers for prices on cuts cheers -brian Edited October 7, 2008 by gr33nm0nk3y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
