Engine mounts are different for starters.. you exhaust will have to be modified, fuel system / fuel pump / surge tank, cooling system, driveline / gearbox (definatly going to want to replace the stock diff), and rewire your ecu to suit. Just a few ideas, I'm sure I've missed a lot of stuff, but anyone else can feel free to add to these ideas.. Not a simple "bolt in" really..

 

On that note, you might also want to do some google searches on "CA18 into AE86" as the engine bay and chassi are fairly similar..

Heathens the lot of you. If it's a Toyota, you put a Toyota engine in it. If it's a Nissan, you put a Nissan engine in it. Thou shalt not mix between the two. Here endth the lesson. :)

What is the best engine turbo engine to put in a ke70 with the least amount of work

Another problem I forgot to mention was the fact KE70s have a cable clutch, most other motors will require a hydraulic clutch, so you will have to modify that too..

Don't forget about the rest of the car that you will have to upgrade to keep everything going. eg: diff, brakes.... Plus you have to keep the engineer happy.

 

What state are you in?

lets say you get a half cutt to save bothering around ~ $2000

then theres the T50 RWD gearbox + Repairs if neded ~ $250 / W Series + custom bellhousing $ 500/600 (+mucking around)

then theres the Tail shaft + Diff ~ T18 = $200 to $250 / Custom = $800 +

Lets not forget wheels + Rubber = $ 700ish

Proper Brake + suspension upgrade ~ $1500 to 2000 easy

Electrical + Getting it all done professionally = $700

Ae71 Parts to get 4age into Ke70 ~ $200

Then theres the fabrication's here and there which will suck even more money, then you have to expect the unexpected $$$$$

 

Total time !! (for the more expensive, muchhh stronger method)

$2000+600+800+700+2000+700+200+labout+unexpected costs

 

=$7000 = ahahah, that doesnt include body work, rust work, interiour work...

 

Lets add $2000 for a paint job, $500 for inteiour stuff, $500 for body and rust works (no Ke70 has no rust...its there, u just need to find it)

 

and you have a ball park figure of $10,000 ~ give or take alot depending on what u get cheap, expensive, what u do, mates rates....... etc etc etc.

 

But thats only my thinking... jason and i are doing a 4agze into Ae71 with a $7000 budget, and we are going pretty ok atm... but its getting Re-co'd T18 diff, T50 gearbox insted of something like a W58 and custom hilux diff setup...

 

Lets not forget onroad costs + legalities !!

 

Good luck..
