pinky Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 was talking to transport and can increase to 2500cc carburetor and 2100cc fuel injected been doing heaps of research on heaps of conversions like 4a/sa/ca/rb but i really want a v6 or v8 road legal ke70 and so far have only found a alfa has a v6 2.5 i know it would be alot of work and heaps of custom parts and alot of money what is everyone thoughts? but would be one very unique ke70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspheric Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Alfa would be way cool and probably sound amazing In v6's Toyota had the 2MZ-FE (2496 cc, 200hp. Camry in AUS, others in japan) and the older 2VZ-FE (2507 cc, 159hp. Camry and lexus es250) and 4vz-fe (japan only, 2496cc, 173hp). Camry engines are dime a dozen. There's also straight sixes like the rb25de, 1jz-ge, All of those are 2.5's though so you'd have to run carbs. This works well on the RB, dunno about the others..

pinky Posted June 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 thanks for that info just love the sounds of the alfa and the fact it comes in a rwd version helps but I will look into that info thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1414 Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Where do you live where you can only put a 2100cc carb motor or 2500cc fuel injected motor (assuming thats NA too) into a ke70? Sounds very low... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indelible Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 sounds more like he meant 2100cc forced induction and 2500cc n/A to me as that would be about right sounds way too low otherwise whats a ke70 weigh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATOYOTA Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 In QLD it's something like 3.8L N/A (Buick V6, in other words :no2:), which is 200cc shy of the coveted 1UZ-FE that everyone seems to want. There's some little Rover V8 you can register a KE70 with, but really, who'd be dumb enough to put a *shit*ish engine in? Biggest forced induction is 2.1L from memory, basically restricting you to the likes of SR20DET and 3S-GTE, or RB20DET's. What is it with people and this idea that cubic centimetres = power? If the engine's a hunk of shit it's still gonna get chopped by 1600's and 2 litres' with a far better engine design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1414 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 you read the post the wrong way round,2.5 carbed,2.1njected I read it correctly, just mistyped. I still don't understand why you would be limited to such small motors and I have never heard of anywhere differentiating between carby and fuel injected before.

japlish Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 4gr out of a is250?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz_Rx Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Mazda make some small capacity v6's....all essentially the same motor like 3/4/5k's - 1.8lt from eunos 30x, 2lt from 626 iirc and 2.5lt from second gen mx6. No idea what gearbox you can mount to them though which is the other thing you need to bare in mind when looking at fwd motors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altezzaclub Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Chase up the Daimler/Jaguar 2.5L V8. Old and simple and on carbs, in all those SP250s and some Jags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky Posted July 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 thanks will have a look into that info pretty slim pickings in tasmania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezzaclub Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Try here- a few Jag wreckers around. It would be a tough job to do, but certainly unique http://www.prestige-spares.com.au/Wreckers/PRE68/wrepre68.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexsmaz Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 The Alfa motor could be ok, but not the best motor out there though, hope you don't mind oil leaks too !! Also originally it had the clutch down the rear with the Gear box, so you will need a custom bell housing & flywheel too & need to obviously put something other than the Alfa gear box behind the motor too ..
