curly Posted December 12, 2008 Report Posted December 12, 2008 hi mate, in the last 3 days you were going to put in a 3RZ hilux motor, 4k with blow through turbo, honda motor and now an SR20det for a start the cost, SR20front cut $3000 hilux diff with brakes $1500 front brakes $500 suspension $800 min compliancing $500 computor and tuning $1500 fuel system $300 plus fuel tank mods + drop tank $200 exhaust $500 intercooler radiator $500 tailshaft $350 + add $2000 for misc, i could be over the top on some bits but you'll find it's pretty close. thats $8650 + labour, i'd take a guess and say this is your first conversion so why not do the suspension first, go buy a wrecked liteace( $2000 ) with a 7k efi use the litace diff gearbox and computor. great little car for $3500 which will sell when you want to get rid of it, then plan a really good mod for the next one Quote

Think of your budget add 3k and build something normal. Quote
beerhead Posted December 13, 2008 Report Posted December 13, 2008 What I think people are trying to tell you is yes, anything can be done, but at a price. The motor spins the wrong way, there is no RWD gearbox to just bolt it together, and you need to invert your diff. Basically its a nightmare of a conversion, and hasn't been done many times due to the fabrication costs. A 4AGE will cost you 1/4 of the money, take 1/10 of the time to build and have similar power. BTW, 20V bottom end with 16V head makes for high compression, no good for turbo. GZE bottom end and 20V head has been done successfully under boost many times.

SLO-030 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Posted December 13, 2008 Just get a 7k mod the sump, decomp it, turbo it and hang on. Mate of mine did tha in his 25, got about 250rwhp. Dunno what this Ba16 makes but fark, a polished up turbo 7k looked SO good. better than some Vtec. Quote
Killerolla Posted December 13, 2008 Author Report Posted December 13, 2008 Sorry to stuff you guys around I'm just considering all my options and yes it is my first conversion. The reason i asked about the b16a conversion is because i already have that engine thats about it. Also I'm sure I'm not the only person that can't make up there mind on what engine to use because there are some many options. Quote
HIGH ROLLER Posted December 24, 2008 Report Posted December 24, 2008 go the 20v, t50 and stock diff locked with stock cheeze-cutters....then rip massive hellies all day! i think for 6-7 grand would cover that....maybe... just my 2bob Quote
