Read my build thread! Almost EVERYTHING is the same for SR and KA swaps. The only thing you'll have to do different is find an intercooler that fits (maybe required to cut the core support to make it fit) and you have to modify the "Cross Rod Steering Link" (the part that goes between the idler arm and steering box) or it will hit the bell housing on the tranny.

(My KA24DE build covering a lot of the smaller stuff)

If you have any questions at all, man, feel free to PM me! I helped my older brother swap a KA into his 510 2-door, and I just finished up the swap not too long ago in my Wagon, so let me know! Even though I'm not local to you, I'm NorCal and knowledgeable. Keep us posted, start a build thread and take lots of pictures! I'd love to see it develop!

Less ponder and finish a project, You can go on and think what if. But I think when? LOL I rather stick a rotary in there then over a 4 stroke.

1five10(ray) can chime in abit since he has one, as well. Hes pretty well known in socal for his silver one since its been in magz, and hes a chill guy. If you've been to pipeline on thurday nights, im sure you've seen him.

Trust me man, 510s are the funnest cars you will ever drive. It feels like a go-kart... I love how light they are, and just the overall feel of the car is awesome (if your suspension is tuned correctly.)

I would say go for it man. And if you need any help hit me up.

Hello all, I have a dime also its got a 18RG & a W58 in it. Will be for sale at the upcoming JCCS. A few peeps on here that have come to the shop have seen it. 71 2 door cancer free ,Im the 2nd owner!!!!

Check dimequarterly for the wiring schematic, it's on there somewhere. For KA and SR, it's almost identical, and on the KA it's something like 8 wires and some relays, yeah, to wire the ecu.

There is a 510 2 door on CL in the Bay Area. Comes with a redtop and says it's ready to be dropped in. Body work has been done, according to pictures, so it needs paint, swap and some love to be a badass Dime!
