Noddle Posted October 29, 2006 Author Share Posted October 29, 2006 What do you intend using the engine for? In my Datsun 240K, it's my daily driver, but since I'm not in the US, I think I can get rid of most of the pollution stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators BRAAP Posted October 29, 2006 Administrators Share Posted October 29, 2006 If you want what you see below, you’ve got a long way to go…. Before you start removing what is there, (that is pretty clean OE set up there by the way), you really should read up on what everything does so that as you start removing items, you’ll have an understanding of what possible compensations you might need to make so you wont induce any issues from the transformation. For the most part, it is straight forward, and depending on far you go, i.e. the pic below, it will take a lot of elbow grease and depending how fast you want it done, how much money you are willing to spend. Good luck… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcelectronics Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 There is not much pollution stuff on the intake manifold most of the plumbing is for the EFI, PC, Brake Booster va lines for the A/Con. And the Trans modulator. And if its your daily driver why mess with it? You won't save anything by ripping it out? There are also water pipes there for the Cold enrichment valve (like an efi choke) So for a daily driver you would best leave it? Is this motor currently in a 2.4 skyline?

Yes, I brought a MR30 Skyline Hatch (1985) 2 days ago, just to rip out the EFI setup to put it my my 240K, (and the rear discs), I was plaining just to transplant it the way it is (head and EFI), I do like the clean setup that BRAAP has, but things like EDIS (non existent in Australia, unless you import it), and I would think, after market EFI will have to wait, Thank you to all that replied Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcelectronics Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 That is exactly what I did to EFI MT first 240Z and it was the best thing I ever did for daily driveability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
