June 27, 201214 yr Author comment_612497 gday all, got some good news!! last couple of days me n my mate josh have been gettin the ke38 engine ready to be swapped into the ke55!!(can't wait!!!) yesturday/night we took off the drive train, diff, and rear axles, and the gearbox bracket mounts thing and stripped the interior, struts, sway bar, steering arms, and lower control arms.\ today we cut the front off for some reason, easier access to the engine i think haha but anyway i took out the electrical looms and we finished stripping the inside, (shes almost a bare shell now haha) heres some pics of the progress we did the last couple of days :) thanks all!
