Laecaon Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 What these guys are getting at is this: There is a wealth of information available on this forum and other places on the web. Go look through the many project threads. Asking such a general question never gets you far; asking a more specific question such as "what type of fuel pump should I run? any suggested brands?" will probably get you better answers. This topic has been covered more than a few times. Quote Link to comment

INDY510 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 First of all....... you need ALL the wiring, ECU, and ALL the sensors........... even when you have that...... you may spend months just wiring depending on your skills Second: ...... do you have a welder?......... the front crossmember will need to be flipped (or custom oil pan)....... you need to shorten the driveshaft, custom trans. crossmember/mount,,,, new radiator,,, electric fans,,, 2 pressurized 5/16" fuel lines 1 return, 1 feed............ electric fuel pump........ custom air intake......... better brakes?...... relocate the 02 sensor, or header, or rack n pinion............ custom gas pedal.......... and that is maybe half of what will need to be done Seriously,,,, don't even start if you don't have $3,500 and six months to 2 years of free time......... and that's if you do %90 of the work Here are some helpfull links: How to wire a KA SR CA into anything: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/537-how-to-wire-a-ka-sr-ca-into-anything/ KA24DE info thread: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/746-ka24de-info/ Very well documented KA24 swap into a 510......... it took years.......... and probably over $6-7K http://dimequarterly.tierranet.com/tech/projectKA/projectKA.html Duke's carbed KA24DE build: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/4137-dukes-72-510/page__hl__%2Bduke%26%2339%3Bs+%2Bbuild Dillon's SR20DET build: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/3829-thrillen-dillons-dime/page__p__50474__hl__%2Bdillon%26%2339%3Bs+%2Bthrillen__fromsearch__1#entry50474 Half-way down the page it gets helpfull.......... list of parts / links: http://community.ratsun.net/topic/22931-ka-in-a-521-im-goin-for-it-lol/ E510's SR20build....... he has all the fab skills you would ever want........ and swaps still aren't cheap: http://www.the510realm.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14174&start=0 Quote Link to comment

You need: KA block KA head KA transmission....... or a adapter to use your L-series tranny Intake manifold Exaust manifold IACV and tube EGR blockoff plate PCV system MAF sensor O2 sensor Distributor Coil Spark plugs/wires Electric fuel pump and relay 2 5/16" metal fuel lines (1 for a return line) Fuel Rail Stock injectors Stock fuel pressure regulator 300zx fuel filter Throttle body Throttle body sensor TPS / CAS Red temp guage with two wires to the ECU ECU Complete wiring harness with plugs for all sensors and elctronic parts 3 relays and 75 hours of wiring to integrate the stock wiring to the KA wiring Custom radiator Electric fans KA24E lower radiator hose outlet with temp sensor to trigger the electric fans Custom cold air intake pipe...... with a IACV outlet Air filter Alternator Starter Motor Battery Clutch Master Cylinder Clutch slave cylinder Brakes??? Flip front crossmember..... (or custom oil pan) Custom motor mounts Custom transmission crossmember Transmission mount Shortened driveshaft Relocate O2 sensor...... it hits the 510 steering box Inlarge shifter hole New 2.5" exaust Muffler Custom gas pedal,,,, with a throttle cable Custom single belt pulley for the fan belt Front sump Sway Bar And the part list I just typed is maybe %80 of what you need........ I am shure I forgot some things Good luck We are here to help if you have any more questions And we can reccomend ways to get more power out of a L16 or L20 if you decide you don't want to spend thousands of dollars on a KA swap With todays economy..... you can buy a running KA510 for cheaper than swapping your 510 Quote Link to comment
