Any ideas for my Ke20?

[Gavatron]

You could but the slightly worked 5K (1.5L K Motor) from my KE30 when I take it out to put the 4AGE in. It'll bolt straight in to your '20.

Gavie That sounds interesting indeed! Dont spose you need some help with the conversion your doing? I would love the knowledge!

[Gavatron]

I guess you could help. Haven't has that much conversion experience myself. But this should be a pretty easy one. Dunno how soon I'm gonna start...

Have read over your posts Megz, in particular your Ke20 thread, and am loving it It's just the inspiration I need. Can I ask how much a 4AGZE costs, and what it is exactly that comes with it? What's involved with the conversion, and where does all the cost some into play? Is it the parts or labor etc? Does the motor just "bolt on" or what?

Slowly but surely I'm working on her bit by bit. Doing the heaps of little jobs first that I can do comfortably and easily. I really wanna look more into the R31 brake and strut conversion... think I'm gonna PM Bananaman

Thanks mate, in the first post of my Ke26/20 thread there is a link to my Ke25 page. Hvae a read of that too. Here is a rough type up of costs that i found with my ke25 4age 16v build up :

put a 3t in it, ive got one in my ke20, cos me $250 all up to do the hole thing, and i did it in a week, but i could do it in a day now

only had to remount the engine mounts on the X member, change the length of the water temp wire, make hydro clutch setup (easy as fuck), change acc cable, again easy as fuck and that is it

cant get no better than that, and then i rebuild the motor and put $2000 into it and ive got a rolla that runs flat 15's with a old box and shity tyres now

yeah cant say to much else apart from put a 3t in it or a 2t/g

cheers, daniel

Yeah, I have I have decided to make a tough 3K motor. I have planned (and nearly have all the parts required for) twin carbies (Dellorto 40m), port and polished head, boared out, oversized pistons, extractors into a 2" system... think thats about it for now.

Have had quotes to change my interior and am currently inquiring about a full paint job.

How does that sound?

[jfallen]

the carbies without a cam and springs are almost wasted.

[Gavatron]

Still reckon you should buy my worked 5K. Extra capacity and stuff already done to it. Gimme a call if you're interested.

[Megz]

Yeah sounds arlight, but i would agree with Gavatron. Go a 5k. There is a bit more room for modifying with the 1.5l. But going that route does have its limitation in power and engine life! But in the end its your car and your dollars that is going into it. So do what you think is good,

Hmmm... I will have to inquire about getting my cam machined to suite the carbies. Excuse my lack of information Jordan, but what springs are you referring to?

GAVATRON! Send me a pm of what you have as far as the 5K is concerned...

[MR 1JZ]

[takai]

Yeah, Gav's 5k is awesome. 50rwkw with just a single weber. Sweet as.
