SLO-030 Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 I sold the 5K today to SLO-030 to make way for something with a little more potential from the Mazda stable. 2 cammed 5K KE36/8's hitting the street very soon :) This means I'm going to require your assistance for mounting the engine and gearbox :cool: Might also wanna get in touch with Henry (KE20me) i think he's had experience with rotor > corolla conversions. And If memory serves me right, he also did the original mounts in Ryan's 20. Quote
Raven Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Posted February 1, 2010 I may have sourced myself a 12A and gearbox to suit....I'll keep you all posted. :jamie: Quote

Raven Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Posted March 14, 2010 (edited) So I got the RX-626 today and proceed to pull the 12A and 5 speed from it with the help of my mate..Habib of U'leh. Here's the progress! On the trailer heading back from Scott's parents place Massive cannon and chicken wire give an extra 100rwkw! Schlammed mate! Ghetto-spec front engine mount... enough said. A few more parts... Engine coming out.... Engine on the stand :jamie: Edited March 14, 2010 by Raven Quote
LukeAE71 Posted March 14, 2010 Report Posted March 14, 2010 Far out the whole 626 was pretty ghetto :jamie: Do you reckon you will have to rebuild the engine before you throw it in?? Quote
Raven Posted March 14, 2010 Author Report Posted March 14, 2010 I had it running and it runs fine so I think I'll give it a nice service once its in and see how long it lasts :jamie: Quote
