4age Into Ae92

[930LLO]

Hey all I'm doing a conversion on my AE92 Sedan.

Taking the 4AFC and putting in the 100kw 4AGE, I'm going to try document the whole procedure.

Infomation will be greatly appreciated like what parts i need for efi conversion and cooling ect ect just incase I havnt covered all aspects,

easier methods to the conversion process would be helpful aswell.

I am currently reconditioning the 100kw before the transplant so some advice before I get into it

would be great aswell. Thanks

efi tank and hardlines, and wiring to suit

engine loom

radiator out of sx/gti as well as it has the side inlet/out on the drivers side

swap the rear brakes from drums to discs, and changes the brake master cylinder to one from an sx/gti for piece of mind

swap the front A arms to ones from an sx/gti so you can install a front sway bar.

 

thats pretty much all i can think of atm :y:

Coil pack, surge tank, are the CV's going to be ok aswell? Fuse boxes?

the coil, fuse box, should be part of the engine loom, although i should have said "engine loom with all sensors etc etc"

 

surge tank wont be needed if you use an efi tank out of an fuel injected ae9x

 

are you using you original g/box? if so then you wont need to swap them, maybe just get them recon'ed, or if you not then you can should still be able to use the shafts in another c-series g/box

Ok the 100kw is almost done waiting for rings, the 4afc is just about out kinda hard with the weather. I'm buying a ae82 1987 for the 4age goodies and efi conversion. Here are some pics of my progress.

 

Peace out till next time Ian

interesting but you would be much better off with the efi gear from an sx/gti in the ae9x's because its all unbolt of donor car and bolt on to yours :hammer: becaause the fuel tank and lines will be different between the ae8x and ae9x that and the wiring looms are different as well :y:

Do you know if there will be much of a difference? Could I get a fuel tank from the wreckers? I have already got the car I have all the bits for the 100kw ( Loom, altinator, injection and exaust manifold. )

What else will i need other than a few lines here and there.?

[MYSTIK[RL]]

i would say completely different but then i have never compared the 2 tanks.

 

yes you could get a tank and lines from the wreckers as long as its from an efi ae9x model(sedan hatch or seca), and also make sure you get the wiring for the fuel pump aswell :hammer:

 

as they say the right parts from the right job :y:

Sweet as I just got a hook up for a ae93 sx fuel tank with lines and gear. Whats different in the bay anything major? From carbie to efi there would be aye? Thats kinda why i got the ae82 efi Its kicking over but has a dud coil with the 86kw 4age there wouldnt be much of a difference?

[MYSTIK[RL]]

you know the smallport uses an ignitor not a coil like the bigport.

 

now everything should swap over fine into the carby bay from the efi, so long as its from an ae9x.

 

Hint: much easier to buy a wrecked sx/gti and swap everything over to the other ae92 that way you know you have everything you need :jamie: and my personal way of thinking

Yeah that would be nice but I'm a tight ass and this is the way to go I have the ignigter aswell, this should go as planned. Just put the rings on my pistons they were a bitch, do I have to use a ring compressor to get em inside the bore or can I put em in the way they are compressing them one by one with my supa doopa fingers that are covered in engine oil.

[930LLO]

Uh an here is the engine that will be helping with bits.

well there quite a bit of difference between the engine bays and wiring, see below for pic of an ae93

 

[930LLO]

HHmmm ok yeah they do look different but I have most of that stuff will only be needing little odds and ends like black pipe and radiator hoses. Ill get some pics of all the gear I have and chuck em up.
