S12 KA24DE SWAP, a start of a long trail

[David s12]

TODAY

i decided to start engine removal before i move,im just gonna dump the engine,trans onto a pallet

today, i removed the fenders/hood/bumper

anyone, what do i disconnect for the engine to come out?the exaust manifold....

the drivetrain...

some parts of the harness....is that all?

AND DUH HERES PICTURES



this is my first time messing around with a engine swapany help would be appreciated.

andalsoi need to find a CHEAP KA24DE/trans/ecu/harness

[TDS]

vac lines, sensors, battery, intake, exhaust, disconnect driveshaft from transmission, unbolt engine and transmission mounts..etc. I don't think you needed to remove the fenders and bumper for engine removal....

Good luck!

well,i wanna do suspension work while i have the engine out

andthe harness goes behind the fenders anyway.

i just want the fenders and hood ALL out of my way,plus there easy to take off?

i got the trans fluid/oil/ all fluid except for the gas drained,i removed the intake, and annoying thingsi took the radiator out, do i need a new one?i might as well use a S13 one anyway.

tomorrow,ill get the driveshaft and exaust from the mani, if i have time afetr work

Dude! Your in manasshole! i live.. close to you. To bad ODS is closing down someday soon, they keep putting it off.

I got a bangin ka-t project going on, never ending ish. If you need a hand with the Ka, or parts or whatever hit me up man. I got 6 ka's lying around, and a stupid amount of knowledge when it comes to this motor and everything involved with getting it running. I also got an in with the local nissan dealership, Wholesale pricing on everything FTMFW.

You auta do a cheap ka-t setup, i can get you started in the right direction. LMK man

Man I love s12s. The only thing that sucks is the amount of custom work it seems you have to do for the suspension/engine.
