Project C.F.A Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 Wiring is exactly the same as the 4e apart from the throttle position sensor which I swapped from the 4e. ECU has been kept from 4e and gearbox was also same. not been for a run yet as I need some Gear box oil and knowwhere was open so the suspence is there till the morning lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 4 hours you say ? fancy doin my conversion lol ill do the wiring Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Project C.F.A Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 If you want? We did my mates conversion from 4efe to 4efte in just under 5 hours but that was without the wiring Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 if you hadnt been so far away would have been handy but i think ill manage slowly . ill think of it as a learning process. gives me confidence though that it can be done in under one day so when i have a week off that gives me 6 days to plug in the looms when ya takin pics of your 5e ?

Mikey Jay Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Would be nice to see the actual difference between 4E and 5E though as i have been thinking about doing this swap in mine.Main difference I noticed going Starlet to Paseo was the extra usability low down due to more torque. Not really much difference over 60 though to be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
