Sezio

whatever you think is reasonable bro.

Hey brother what did you end up having to do for the transmission mount? Is it bolted up with just a single bolt?

What did you do for powersteering?

For the transmission I used my stock mount but only managed to get 2 out of the bolts on there. When the engine slides up it allows you to the the holes in between the 2 actual bolt holes. Lined up perfectly for me. As for the Power steering you have two options.

1st option- Use LS400 Power Steering pump which has reservoir mounted on it and get your KA high pressure hose extended to reach over to the pump.

2nd option- Still need to get your High Pressure Hose extended BUT you use a SC400 Power Steering Pump which doesn't have the reservoir mounted on it. This allows you to keep your stock S-Chassis reservoir and just run your lines to it. Big fat one will connect to the Pump and the other back to your Rack.

thank you so much to referring me to the correct build thread of yours! I just went to a local car rebuild yard that has a 1uz in their storage BUT no wiring harness :/. they said they could get another car with everything in it and I could come pull everything I needed for the same price($350). I know that's a higher price than what most of you guys have paid but its the closest I have available to me. and since I live a mile down the road they will bring it over after I pull it for free. so yay for no shipping fees. but onto the questions.

1. what all should I pull from the car if I decide to do it myself?
2. what king of mpg are you getting from daily driving? bc this will be my daily as well.
3. what all did you replace when you rebuilt the motor?
4. if you do not mind (please do not mind lol), how much did this swap cost you? under $3k?

thank you ahead of time for the feedback! your car is immaculate brother :thumbsup:

Dope. Still wanna see it sideways though

First off what year is the motor and what car did it come from? If the motor is complete all you'll need is the harness and ECU, My MPG's are relatively similar to my KA24DE. I haven't checked exactly but will post as soon as I do. I replaced Crank & Rod Bearings, Piston Rings, Water Pump, Oil Pump, Tensioner, Idler Bearings, Timing Belt, All Gaskets. I spent close to 3k on all this.

So my question is simple. How happy are you with the power of the 1uz in your s14? If I did not miss anything you are running an early model 1uz with 261 hp and 268 lf ft torque. This is the swap that I want but before I dive in I want to get some driving impression comments from people that have completed this swap. I also have an s14 and I have gone the route of the ka-t and I blew the motor. Now I would like to go back to na power but the lsx is just to costly. Thanks!

I have a s13 with one, and i love it.

This is good to hear. It is making me feel better about wanting the 1uz swap.

Sezio

I'm very happy about the power actually. The torque is so freaking badass! In my opinion I think it's a good build for the buck. Only issue you will run into is the modification of the Driver side Exhaust Manifold. Other than everything should be pretty much bolt on. Like you saw I purchased the full kit from Brett at swap1uz.com excluding the Driveshaft. The Driveshaft I got custom made as a one piece at local shop. This car is my Daily Driver and have no complaints whatsoever.

Sezio

Haha Thanks bro! I will be visiting you guys soon for some wheels.

Tank240sxT

This is awesome! I'm getting one. Hopefully it will be done by the first of Sept.

zenkiset

my motor is a 1992 early model 1uz. and that's good to hear about the mpg! I get right around 24mpg depending how much spirited driving I do, but even with some more than average spiritedness I get 21. as for how much you put into your rebuild I don't think ill be spending that much. ill probably just be taking the engine apart and thoroughly cleaning it as you did and painting some things to make them looking new again and then replacing wp, op, gaskets and tensioner. if I can get a good deal on some lower mileage pistons and cranks ill just do that.

Deffinitly one of the tightest swaps I've seen in a while. It's nice not only seeing the pics and reading all the good info, but watching videos on your progress. Being able to hear it and see it go is f'n dope. Keep up the good work bro

Wow...This seems very interesting since SC400's are a dime a dozen out here..how is it with the KA Transmission? will you be upgrading?

Sezio

Thank you all for the love! I'm glad i've put a positive impact in you guys to do the swap as well. The KA Transmission feels like it needs an extra gear but then again I did change my rear to a z32 so that may have something to do with it as well. The car is my daily driver and I really don't have anything to complain about it. It's definitely a neck breaker though lol. Later on i'll be upgrading to a 350z transmission.

Tank240sxT

That is the one thing I like about what I have found. The adapter for the ka transmission also works for the z32 and z33 transmissions. So you can upgrade the transmission and drive shaft when ready or necessary.

Going to drop my car off Aug 3, 2013: 10 days and counting.

Sezio

Nice! who's doing the job for you?

Tank240sxT

Small shop here in Atlanta previously Lethal Injection. I very excited because I have not been able to drive my 240 in over a year and a half. Rrrr! I really miss it and most people look at me funny when I say that because I have an 08 WRX. Its not the same. The WRX does everything well but I also don't want to brake it, my wife would have a fit. The 240 always feels right when I'm driving it, its special.

Sezio

I hear you on that one lol... Well good luck with your swap bro. Let us know how it goes.

zenkiset

Did you ever get around to the pictures for the wiring? if not, can you link me to what you used to go by? thanks.

Slippin'eight-nine

I dont know if I missed it, but are u planning to dyno it?
How much do you think you have into the swap? Just a ballpark
Nice work by the way!

zenkiset- PM me for wiring.

[email protected]- Yes I got it for $260.00

Slippin'eight-nine- I haven't dyno'd it yet but I'd say with the elimination of Fan clutch and AC Compressor I'm doing like 270HP and 270TQ. That's just my estimate it could be more or it could be less.

What's up with a real in car cluster video Serg? I've only seen this thing putt down the street, hahaha!
