19914afc Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Someone on ae86drivingclub.com.au sells bolt in kits for SR20 into ke70/ae71, but to start you will need AE71 xmember, pedal box, possibly gearbox xmember too, then there's bigger brakes, bigger diff and lots of other little items.

19914afc Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Is yours a KE70 or AE71? if it is a KE70 then you cannot use the original one because they are a cable clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke7o Posted December 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 It's a ke70! So could I use an ae71 pedal box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19914afc Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 So at the very least if you want to use pre made engine mounts you will need the same stuff I said above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloth Posted December 26, 2011 Report Share Posted December 26, 2011 When putting a 4A into a KE70, people will use either an AE86 or AE71 engine crossmember, so I'd assume that you would need to get something custom made (could be a kit or something out there). You would most likely need the hydro clutch setup. As mentioned, the KE70's have a cable clutch, whereas most more modern things will use a hydraulic. These used to be around $80-$100 each, though now people are asking (and getting) upto $250. My advice (and the advice off almost everyone else on the forums) would be to find an existing build thread where someone else has done the conversion (as it's fairly common) and see what they have done. This will also let you find out all the possible pitfalls etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ke7o Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 what about the wiring harness from the sr, would i just plug it up and get power to the srarter and an electronic fuel pump and it would go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
