S13 1uz swap

[Khoda]

Hey guys need a little help from the people that have done this...

I have a 91 s13 got a 91 ls400 1uz wanted to know if I could use my ka radiator for it since it's an aluminum aftermarket one. Also what would I use for the hoses and for the power steering lines?

Just want to get the best stuff so that the swap will be swift and simple.

it doesnt matter what radiator you use. you will just need custom hoses. an sr radiator would be better though, since the top hose would come off the right side. i hope you have a custom driveshaft as well

Don't need a custom driveshaft since the tranny is not moving.. So I have been told.

Haha, yeah I might be buying a harness for it but then again kinda want to do it myself so I can stay in budget.. That's all I need oh and a ecu and should be a complete swap for it.

Luckily I found a ls400 for only 500$ and got all that so now all I need is the trans adapter flywheel and throw out bearing

Is that from Brett Collins? I am going 1uz once my clutch or my engine decides to die. Cheapest and easiest swap from what I have heard.

Here are some builds I have bookmarked for when I start the build:

V8 Silvia Build | DriftWest

1UZ S13 Coupe Build - Nissan 240SX Forums

hey sorry its been a long time but i did manage to get the swap parts from a buddy of mines and get it all together and put in now all i need is wiring. ive been so busy thats why i havent started it but i do have weekends off now so hopefully i can get it moving before it gets super cold out.

transmission moves back to give clearance to the fan and radiator on the car. if you dont move the trans back you'll run into fitment issues with your radiator and pulleys on the car. those engine mounts where ment to be adjustable. i shoved the motor as far back as possible for weight distribution reasons.

make sure to get the right flywheel and clutch parts and follow all the instructions from Brett. including the knife edging the starter, and replace your spark plugs and injectors before you drop it in. I did acomplete rebuild on my 1uz before i swapped it in because i intend on some mild cams and 8.5k rpm redline.

Sorry to revive an older thread, but I can't find anything when it comes to the wiring of this swap.
I am fairly inclined when it comes to wiring, I've wired in all my swaps, but I can't find next to anything about this one.
My question is, for those of you who have completed this how detailed is the wiring conversion?
I'm not exactly asking for a complete run down of every wire, but if you know of a good thread or pinout diagram that would help I would greatly appreciate it.

Look for my build thread. Should be enough to get you started.
