johnny t Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 I'm going back to 4 stud so I'm changing full set up to s13 Quote
johnny t Posted January 30, 2013 Report Posted January 30, 2013 I'm going back to 4 stud so I'm changing full set up to s13 also I've got 4:11 gears in my rolla they seem bit high I had 3.5 before that which seemed little low. Would 3.7 or 3.9 be better? With 4:11 up the 1/4 mile it taps out just before the line.. That's why I thought 3.9 just to make that extra distance thoughts?? Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted January 31, 2013 Report Posted January 31, 2013 you can just get it drilled to 4 stud, $80 per side from memory, easier than the whole swap over thing? Â what gear are you topping out in 3rd? Quote
johnny t Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 Yeah gettin them redrilled atm ... What speed? Not sure don't have a speedo lol Quote
crispy76 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 guys been reading thru the thread and am about to start on a similar project I'm just wanting to know which model hilux diff is used? as there are quite a few options out there Quote
crispy76 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 I have ea falcon rear disc n calipers on my hilux diff If your interestested in buying the set up off me as I'm going a different way now.. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread :) Â johnny are you still selling the diff??? if so how much? Quote
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted March 25, 2013 Report Posted March 25, 2013 The earliest hilux diff is the shortest, rn40. Still a little bit longer than a ke30 diff though. Quote
Souli Posted April 9, 2013 Author Report Posted April 9, 2013 gday boys! Â its been a while since ive been on here. a lot has been goin on with the project. Â question- any suggestions on clutch? should i go heavier? or will the standard suffice? Â get my diff back this week which was done by a mate of mine (speedy diffs) here in sydney. Â the housin was from a late 90s model hilux, diff centa was from a prado (4.11) was told that these are a bit more rigid so opted for this instead of a hilux diff centa. brand new axels and brakes. Â will be headin to my mechanic this week, post some progress photos. Â Â also I'm sellin all the original KE30 gear that i don't need anymore, gearbox 2 spd auto motor, 4 wheels all in immac condition. all surplus $100 for the lot. Â 0414486569-steven Quote
Souli Posted April 15, 2016 Author Report Posted April 15, 2016 hi all, Â been a while since ive posted on here.. a lot of work and time has been put into my car over the last 2 years.. got her on the road with standard set up, got bored so we upgraded a few things. goin dyno next week, looking to make 330-350hp. here are some old and recent pics of the progress. a lot of money has been spent on this car, taking no short cuts, which is the only way to do it imo! Â any questions regarding build and specs fire away! more than happy to help. Quote
sparkzy Posted June 4, 2016 Report Posted June 4, 2016 Hey mate it has been good reading your thread, keep the updates coming! I'll be tackling this conversion myself at some point in the future and am slowly building up info/parts. Where did you get this all engineered (I live in sydney)? I'd like to have a good chat with the engineer before i get started. Cheers Quote
