if ya can do all that mate you should save a fair bit :yes: yeah thats it can only ask but id ask them before ya start or ya could end up spendin more but good luck with it. don't hesitate to pm with questions!johnnyt

sorry nothing panel beater has been slack and hasnt even touched it!!F#$king pissed off!! he says he will do it but he is full of it!! sorry will update when sumthing happends! johnnyt

go an SR20DET or CA18DET! :jamie:

i think if your gonna do it do it properly the first time sr or ca all the way!! if you go a 4AGE your only gonna want more power late so y spend the money in doin it twice.up to him and how much money he has/ wants to spend

styler hit it on the head. I'm doin a sr20det conversion at the moment ive spent 23,000 and thats not even running! still gota be wired up and finished bein painted havnt touched the interior besides the dash. like styler said it just depends who ya know and where ya can source parts from/know what parts you need. most importantly have a fair bit of $$$ and willing to spend it i got told when i started, take what price u think its gonna cost and double it!soo true! do searches for oh what a nissan feeling ke30 and also my ke30 just do ya research! johnnyt edit: lloyd also has a ke30 with a ca18det in it and ca18rolla has a coupe with a ca18det in it read as much as ya can.

yeah after a while it would weakin it wouldnt it? once u get it out of that snow mound the roads would be lots of fun!!

na it shouldnt break if ya get a good weld on the elbow it shouldnt break it doesnt take long to do took me bout 3 hours.

take the black covers off and just look at it and see where the screws are undo them and you should be right i havnt done much with that but ive taken off the covers and i remember couple of screws

i havnt actally drove it with it cause my car isnt goin yet but if you do it properly u shouldnt have a problem. I'm gonna use nylock nuts if the to nuts that arnt locked 2gether don't work but i think they should hold

look at my thread i posted search hydrolic clutch to give you a rough idea of how i done it and also oh what a Nissan feeling has one on there to. i know its not in a ke70 but it will give u a beta idea. you could make it work for the time being and then once ya meet is done the get the ae71 box. to me having something done properly and know it works and to know you wont have a problem $200 is nothing. but hey thats me good luck with it hope this helps johnnyt

na its at the panel beaters at the moment so hopefully i should have it back in a month all in primer then i can put the engine back in get it wired up and do all the little stuff i have to do and have it driveable! be a while yet got that many small time consuming things to do but ill definitly post more pics of the progress ive made :y: johnnyt

just wondering is there anyone know if there a struts braces made to fit ke30/55? or if there is an option a can take to make one fit? ive heard a s13 brace fits but i will have to slog out the holes by about 2 mm each hole. any help will be great thanks johnnyt

no worries happy to help:)

hey mate this is how i done mine in my ke30/55 i don't know anything about ke26's if the cross members are the same but these pics give you an idea of how i put my sr in my rolla. hope this helps johnnyt

haha how funny also shows how good that sales person is not pickin up on it!!

my engine bay got painted saturday :y: its off to the panel beaters tomorrow if i can get a trayler, to get the rest of the car ready for paint fix few dents ect. hopefully ill get it back soon so i can get the engine back in a get it to the auto elec to get the wiring done aswell can't wait!

where the thread goes through the clutch pedal that is the piviot point so the bottom of the elbow is free to alow it to pivot from that point and that point is full movement of the clutch master try and picture what would happen if that pedal moves.

yep i think it was thats where i got the idea of that thread set up thats exactly right its not tight agains the elbow so it can pivot. yeah nyloc nuts would do the trick thats just what i had acess to cause of eveywhere shut atm cause of new years. if they end up loosening i will get different nuts. shouldnt cum loose tho if you do it up tight enough.

na the rod turns inside the clutch masta so all you need to do is undo the the silver lock nut there and simply twist to adjust.

hey guys i done my hydrolic clutch on my ke30 ive looked at other threads and the push rod was on a angle and i didnt like that idea because it would wear the seals in the master. so i tried sumthing... which works well i used the basic idea of a bolt with about 50mm of thread and 4 nuts as you can see in the pics. i used the same point of push but created my own elbow joiner so it pushes from the same point but keeps the push rod straight with the clutch master. i used a ta22 clutch master.johnnyt
