5K Supercharged Ke30

[haydoss]

Hi all,

 

I recently sold my 180sx to help fund my new project, a 5K Supercharged KE30! My dad and I will be doing this ourselves, well mainly my dad haha but i'm good for moral support :) We eventually found a 5k block with some gear still on it, and then found a 4k to "mix and match" the bits needed. I then bought a SC14 Supercharger from a Jap Import shop in Adelaide. We will hopefully be doing a manual conversion with some parts that we got from U-Pull-It, just waiting to find a gearbox.Anyway, Be sure to stay tuned in the near future for more updates! :D

[haydoss]

[Chillin]

Have you considered any diff/brake/suspension upgrades to accommodate or the extra power, weight and speed?

[haydoss]

Yeh, We are looking into brakes but not to sure which ones to go for, any solutions/suggestions? and as to diff, we are looking for one, maybe a hilux depending on prices but in the meantime, hopefully it doesnt break haha, :)

Welcome to the club! This sounds similar to my plans, except mines going in a KE70. Looking forward to seeing the work done and good luck.

Cheers mate at the moment I'm working on finding someone to work my 5k to the shitter then get the can done, painful stuff :P

hope you get what you need from the 4K champ, thanks for taking it off my hands :yes:

 

all the best with the build.

 

cheers, Scott

[haydoss]

haha, thankyou!

 

Got the pedal box in over the weekend, for some reason the picture seems to be purple. Dad picked up a 4 speed for now until we can find a 5 speed, but hopefully should do the trick in the meantime. Started work on stripping the 4K of parts and get a complete engine with the 5K. Started on adding a tacho in place of the clock for the cluster, coming along nicely :P and lastly, scored some rims for free from my uncle, unfortunately the PCD was different and didnt fit on which was dissapointing !

 

Cheers, Hayden :D

AKA gutter scrapers!! :lol: stupid the way the spokes stick out further than the tyres side wall. I litterally rofl'd on the footpath once when a mate did it.

Ah not too sure, but would look nice :)

It had an auto so it seems that the hole already there seems to fit a KE70 5speed, measured it up etc. Ended up tracking down a 5k Head so hopefully will be using that instead :) Cheers, Hayden
