Sidewinder Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 theres 2 ways you can do it one involved custom crossmembers, tailshaft, diffs, manual conversion, suspension, wider wheels, fuel system, manual pedalbox, customer hydro clutch setup, intercooler piping, dump pipe and exhaust, mounts, pluss everything to make it emissions legal. or for the much easier, and likely cheaper way its a nice and simple 3 step process 1. jack up the ke70's radiator cap 2. slide ca18det powered 180sx/silvia under radiator cap, lower radiator cap to its orginal height 3. replace the radiator cap.

D1doony Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) the beauty of toyota - you need f@$k all custom work, just use other toyota parts like this: 4ac/4age pedal box 4ac/4age engine cross member kaizen engine mounts t18 solid clutch line 4ac/4age steering rack and column ( should get it with the x member) only thing custom you will need will be tailshaft and g/box cross member might wanna think about other things like radiator and making some kind of mounts up and upgrading the diff to hilux or tarago pm me if you want to know other shit. you don't need custom crossmembers, tailshaft, diffs, manual conversion, suspension, wider wheels, fuel system, manual pedalbox, customer hydro clutch setup, intercooler piping, dump pipe and exhaust, mounts, obv you will need fuel system which you could just run a VL external fuel pump to do it on the dodge, wider wheels? and suspension you don't NEEED to do the conversion but would be nice to run on some nice shocks/springs and rims but obv this will come with spending a solid 4figure digit on the car I'm 99% sure the standard low mount manifolds clear the 4a steering rack Edited March 13, 2009 by D1doony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
