December 12, 201213 yr Author comment_639608 Update.. I have got the wiring harness, fuel rail etc in and connected. I am fairly happy with the layout, only a few things i would do different next time.. The harness would look better.. meh. Mounted the coil on a piece of angle on the valley cover bolt holes. Thinking I should earth it?? Edited December 12, 201213 yr by crunk81us Report
January 9, 201313 yr Author comment_642930 update.. just finished fuel system and wiring, and was testing the fuel pump. 'crank, 3 sec of pump..crank 3 sec pump and repeat 10 times'... and it just started, no cough,no splutter, and idled away. still need extractors for the o2 sensor that i think is making it hesitate a bit when revved? have some pics and vid to upload later. right now i am playing with my car a bit more :D Report
January 9, 201313 yr comment_642933 Nice work- you make it seem so easy... but I'm sure there is a lot of problem-solving in there beforehand. Report

January 9, 201313 yr Author comment_642937 Nice work- you make it seem so easy... but I'm sure there is a lot of problem-solving in there beforehand. haha no it is definately not easy, or fast. It helps that i understand circuit diagrams, and managed to find most of the info i needed beforehand) people on here have been helpful too.. thanks guys! oh and my previous clutch woes were fixed with a new slave! works perfectly. Driving it seems so close now! Report
January 9, 201313 yr Author comment_642966 Cooling system was straight forward thanks to some flexible silicone hose (top hose), and 2 silicone bends, 2 thermostat adapters as joiners with sensors in them. The flexible hose is cool! Report
January 10, 201313 yr Author comment_643107 Backed out of the shed, thoroughly cleaned, and driven back into shed. I accidentally did a small burnout.. This thing is gonna move! :D Mostly masked for some paint. Edited January 10, 201313 yr by crunk81us Report
January 10, 201313 yr comment_643189 Good work mate, keen to see the rest of it take shape! What brake/diff combo do you have planned in future? Report
January 13, 201313 yr Author comment_643513 I have a 2 x standard open, 1x welded diff centres to use up, and 10+ stocko skinny rubber to destroy. I hope the diffs last the tyres out haha After that.. i havent made plans. I have seen a few combos, not sure on the right setup for me yet. Ideally a strong but not too heavy lsd extractors are my next hurdle to a proper test drive. Report
January 13, 201313 yr Author comment_643514 "accidentally" did a burnout?????? yeh.. who knew a half throttle clutch dump would do that to a 155 r 12 :oops: Report
January 14, 201313 yr comment_643604 hey mate, ive got a ke20 with a 4a and i use a stock diff.. its lasted 3 months of abuse every day... if u don't use tyres over about a 185 it will last... Just weld the centre... needs a welded centre or spidergears explode. the right diff to go in is a T series from an ae86 sprinter or a H165 DATSUN ute diff with the ae86 LSD centre ( fits in without much work read on datsun1200.com ) ae86 JDM brakes up the front pulls mine up nicely with a pajero mastercylinder too.. :) Report
