Medicine_Man Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Posted February 16, 2005 please keep this on topic guys
Mr Revhead[RL] Posted February 18, 2005 Report Posted February 18, 2005 just had another scrounge through our dusty shelves.... can't find ANY 4k manuals :sad: but will look further... i doubt you will find a manual for the 4k-e being a jdm engine only and before imports were common it was probably never made in english. the only different parts are in the injection anyway. i did however find a lot of starlet chassis/body manuals and the k50 gear box one as well as w55 manual. i think ill go throught the lot and catalouge it... theres a lot of good info there...
Medicine_Man Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Posted February 19, 2005 Degreased / Spraypainted my 4K-E Intake Manifold Today..
Medicine_Man Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Posted February 19, 2005 (edited) Degreased / Spraypainted the Intake Manifold Base as well.. Edited February 19, 2005 by Medicine_Man
z|gen Posted February 19, 2005 Report Posted February 19, 2005 looking good :insane: are you using the polished intake runners and the standard throttle body ?
Medicine_Man Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Posted February 19, 2005 Yep, tomorrows job is to polish up the intake runners and also paint the throttle body housing..
z|gen Posted February 19, 2005 Report Posted February 19, 2005 nice, are you setting it up for a turbo application or just n/a injection ?
Medicine_Man Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Posted February 19, 2005 N/A Injection for now, depends how saucy I get in the future, I dream of no flat spots and more torque for now :insane:
z|gen Posted February 19, 2005 Report Posted February 19, 2005 sounds good dude, have you run the fuel injection setup before ? is there much difference in performance etc of the standard carb setup ?
Medicine_Man Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Posted February 19, 2005 Only ever run a carby before, EFI doesn't give you any more power, just gives the power earlier (no flat spots) and produces more torque..
Super Jamie Posted February 20, 2005 Report Posted February 20, 2005 that really depends on how your carb was setup before. efi has the potential to correct a poorly setup carb power level. but yes, earlier power and more torque definately
z|gen Posted February 21, 2005 Report Posted February 21, 2005 i picked up some more manuals today, the one that suprises me most is the Air conditioning one, dated April 1978, so I'm assuming crowns etc came out with it ? got some more electrical books - another wiring diagram book, and 2 on ignition/starter/alternator. when my KE20 arrives, I'm thinking i might use my 4K-E setup on that, while i finish the KE30 bodywork. mines not quite as bling as Medicine Man's though :lock:
mikeys toy[RL] Posted March 29, 2005 Report Posted March 29, 2005 :D hey, i've got a haynes manual that covers the etire (u.s.) market of starlet. dated 1984; this has a supplement 4k-e and all of the injection system. i will scan this to anyone who wants it, but i am pretty computer illiterate, so you may have to walk me through!!!!!
