Those are some great photo's! You did a really nice job!
That blue colour looks familiar ;-)

How did you do the KA install? Did you fab up everything you needed? (what exactly did you need?)

Thanks for contributing to the forum,

Rad ride buddy. Hope to see some more photo's as the project gets completed.

Wish mine looked as good as that - wish I had the resources to do the work that my dime needs.. body work, for the most part, and then ofcourse, paint.

Spencer-- Is that that the intensa blue pearl?
Sweet color, I might add. Might do some accenting with it, perhaps......

:D Guys, I hadn't checked back on this thread in a while...

I fabbed everything up for ka myself, I reversed a 69' xmember, used the stock motor mounts (240 block) and rubber insulaters (510) I'm using the front sump oil pan from the 240sx, modified oil pickup tube.

I'm running a 1" front sway bar that sorta screws up my oilpan fit so I'm building a custom pan using the sx pan flange and fabbing up some sides back, front and bottom. I really liked the oil pan in (Spencers) 5TEN's wagon (I painted my car back in march but ya, it does look a little familar, I used 78 corvette candy blue mettalic base clear)

Anyhoo thats the only big mod remaining before final install.

I really appreciate the feedback, I know were at opposite ends of the country. 510's are few and far between out here, so its cool to be able to get advice and swap info.

Greg 510 if you want to switch your rear brakes to disc, I might be having my buddy build some more adapters if enough people are interested...
Then all you need is some donor zx cradles and calipers and your laughing...

I'll post some more pics soon.
