hi, its using ke55 discs and calipers (girlock ones) and a remote booster which is all engineered. i also just got it engineered for the turbo as well, so it will be a totally legit twin cam turbo ke20 when its back on the road. makes me think i'll have to start saving for a good rear end diff conversion and w5x box package.
-
i have the wiring diagrams, but i'm in NZ for two weeks, so i'll upload them when i get home if no one else has by then.
-
how do you fit a turbo in there?

Ke20 Auto Cable -> Manual Hydraulic Clutch
Jono replied to kay_eee_two_zero's topic in Engine Conversions
mine was manual to begin with. swapping the pedal box isn't hard, just a pain in the arse. mounting a clutch master cylinder and making the clevis fit on your pedal is ok, but depends on how you reinforce the firewall. -
"wholesale suspension" in sydney have been using a KONI shock in ke20s (front) a lot. not sure of the part number but they are adjustable ones.

Ke20 Auto Cable -> Manual Hydraulic Clutch
Jono replied to kay_eee_two_zero's topic in Engine Conversions
just get a ke20 manual pedal box. bolt or weld a plate onto the firewall to stop it flexing. are you leaving it SC or turboing it? as for clearance, i used a NG pajero clutch master cylinder. -
love your work.
-
remember you are meant to be able to demist your windows for rego.
-
hardly. you get what you pay for in some instances.
-
if you think $140 is 'horribly pricey', what do you think of my $900 custom steampipe manifold? plus $200 to get it ceramic coated.
-
yes but the pressure drop across the bearings is pretty much total, so the oil drain needs to be vertically (or as close to) straight down. i.e. oil won't be spurting out the top of your oil drain flange!
-
where do you buy the trim rings from?
-
no probs, i was just trying to help. so can you rotate the middle section of the turbo around so the drain hole is pointing down?
-
my turbo upside down? Umm, yeah i guess it is....hahaha. actually you are wrong, the feed is threaded and the drain just dribbles out of the big hole. but you are right about my pic, the turbo isn't attached.
-
hahaha. i like it. Have you noticed the poor fitting flares and the like on the new sr5 models?
-
the later model grill and bonnet combo is the best look.
-
yeah, it was heavily modified. besides those new shape hiluxs are built in Thailand. i'm stoked i have one of the last Japanese ones.
-
yeah, its the same as my t25; oil and water cooled. mine is all plumbed up now. i'm sure thats the oil drain in the picture though, not the feed. the feed has a threaded hole and the drain has the flange.
-
how will your oil drain work? you may have to rotate the central part of the turbo so it can gravity feed.
-
i saw a nice original looking ke20 in forestville yesterday, with a middle aged lady driving it.
-
my 74 had the sanyo cassette player and speakers. must of been a dealer option (butchery) as upon closer inspection they are a bit of a hack job.
-
i reckon you need to find a late model bonnet or an early model grill.
-
i'm doing the same thing - turboing a stock smallport motor with a t25 (although i now have a BB T28 as a backup) so i will be following your progress. i have a low mount steampipe manifold and a GZE CAS and coil packs + haltech e6x.

a mate of mine used the park switch from his auto as an immobiliser when he converted to manual. he wired the park switch to a reed switch (magnetic) and stashed it under the carpet, then to start the car you have to hold a magnet over the certain patch of carpet and turn the key or else it won't start.
-
what computer are you using? you could run coil packs and just put a plate on the dizzy, like the CAS has.
