INDY510 Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 im thinking about the ka for my 710 sedan, started looking into it and gathering parts now. Have you seen anything on the 710 that wouldnt have ben an issue for the 510 guys? The motor mounts on most 510 swaps don't "need" to be moved back .... . . my motor mounts on the crossmember were moved back and modified to accept the stock S13 mounts The tranny crossmember is SO different from 510's .. .. the PO welded up a flat stock x-member . .. . it works,, but I'm getting a new one made when I do my exaust .... there isn't much room for the exaust to tuck even with a custom x-member and custom exaust Sway bars: .. just like every other part for a 710 motor swap . . . either make a custom one or go to austrailia and hope some 180b swap parts fit Quote Link to comment

INDY510 Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 . Going back in time ... . . 8 months ago I started "cleaning up" the wiring: Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 That's the part I'm dreading on my 510. I need to redo the harness. I'd rather do the whole thing just because it's original and spotty and while most things work, it's still not too great. One taillight is brighter, blinkers work faster on one side than the other, though they all work. I've bypassed to a separate fusebox/wiring harness with the EFI, but I'd like everything else to be new too. Quote Link to comment
