A DOG 116 Posted February 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Oh what i would do for a 4KE race cam. To hear this little motor lump would be dreamy. I am truly jealous 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ajg193 9,803 Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 USDM 4KE was rated for something pathetic like 58 hp. Rockauto has a good supply of bits for these 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ajg193 9,803 Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 If you ever get a LSD for the rear end I can sell you uprated clutch disks to make it work better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostchips 5,071 Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 Weird seeing an O2 sensor on a 4K. Back in my day people welded diff's. I would rather pour lead in them. The axle shafts will thank you. So... what will you do about the rear bumper? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's good to know. I do want an lsd eventually. But finding one I the USA is nearly impossible. If I do get one I will let you know. 4 hours ago, Ghostchips said: Weird seeing an O2 sensor on a 4K.

The rear bumper all though being an eye sore will have to stay for a while. It is a nice resting spot for my bum when at the car meets. All though a nice similar style rally bar would be fitting. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fishing sinkers, solder, any lead. It flexes takes the worst of the shock loading. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
