ke70 prorolla Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 the 84 has 1.6 litre and the 82 has 1.3ltr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.L.Z.BUB Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 (edited) They are completely different, you will need to swap engines, cross member, the 1.6 has a hydraulic clutch, tail shaft etc. So basically all the running gear. Why not use the manual car? EDIT: Unless you get a K-T gearbox bellhousing. Edited December 8, 2012 by B.L.Z.BUB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.L.Z.BUB Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Then you'll need to swap everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Its worth it- Swap motor & gearbox,crossmember, pedal box, clutch hydraulics and sort the taiolshaft & exhaust, and then you're ready to convert the 4AC into a 4AGE later. The 1.6 gear adds to the price when you sell it, it makes it easier for anyone else to do a 4AGE conversion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
