4age Into Ke70 / Ae71 Conversion - The Step By Step Noob Guide

the ae86 T50 crossmember will not bolt into a corolla. The ae71 model is fine, as for the washers you mean for a 20V engine?

Really?? I thought they did...Must be engine crossmember I'm thinking of.

Hm. That sucks. I'll put mine up for sale on 86DC then, not many 86 owners here.

how much di you guys py for your engine?

 

I'm looking at having my 4age in for $800-$1000. looking good so far.. including the motor

What do you do with the tail shaft I have the stock ke70 and a ae71 panel van shaft but the bit on the back that bolts to the diff is different

And the uni joints look way different

I'm bolting up a 71 tail shaft to a ke70 borgy

[ke70dave]

Isnt the panel van a 1 peice shaft? and didnt the panel van come with a S series diff?

[4ke70]

Yes it's a one piece shaft

And yes I think they did come with a s

But I have a two piece ae71 and the bit that bolts to the diff on that looks to be the same as the 1 piece

I'm new to Corolla's and pretty much conversions in general and this really helped me.

But I have a question. I'm about to buy an AE71 w/ a 4A-C, Manual. I've also got an 1989 AE95 Wagon ready to buy, cause it's got a turbo 4AGE.

Problem is, the AE95 is an AWD. Will I be able to drop a 4AGE from an AWD AE95 into an AE71, and remove the turbo (Still on P Plates.)? What problems/issues will I have?

Thanks in advance.

Don't buy a turbo 4AGE if you're going to remove the turbo anyway, just buy a normal 4AGE. But the answer is yes, any 4AGE can be converted to RWD.

Thanks, but the reason I'm considering the turbo 4AGE is that it's in a REALLY clean car, for a very cheap price. Could almost take the 4AGE out, put anything else in and sell it for more.

Or, would I be better off spending the money on making the 4AC better? (Without a turbo)
