Charade G101 - 2NZ-FE Swap

[SER_GTR]

Yup sanding is the real hard work when doing a paint job. As long as its sanded properly, painting it is just a matter of using the proper technique and a blend with skill. True, you can take your time between painting and putting down the lacquer but time was what I didnt have I painted the car on a Sunday and the next morning, it was office. One should have a portable booth type of thing made of translucent sheets of plastic that would keep the dust out when painting.

Atleast You Have A Nice Clean Place To Be Alone With Car And Do Your Work...I Don't Even Have One.....Else I Would Have Done Everything Including Installing Chain Hoist Support... Proper Shade Lighting And All ....A Nice Breezy Sunday Morning Or Saturday Night Or Any Night You Like To Work On Would Have Been Your SPOT Of Work....!

You Can Cover Up Your Space And Put Some Lightings In Order To perform DIY's At Night !

[OwaisYunus1]

I would love nothing more than to have a proper shed or something similar made which would also have the chain hoist and other tools neatly packed into drawers or cupboards and all the lighting I could ever need. Maybe sometime later in shaa Allah And true, having a clean and spacious place to work is a blessing Alhamdulillah.

I have a mechanic in pindi Sultan ka khoo by the name of Yousaf. The mounts were part of the deal for the whole swap so cant really say how much the mounts cost alone. It would depend on which mounts are used in your car and how much work in needed in terms of fabrication to fit the mounts.

Bro how much the whole swap cost, labour part? can you give me his number so i can ask him about it.
iam also thinking to swap it with some other engine some times think of 660cc and sometimes of 4efe having mixed thoughts

If I remember correctly, the labour part was 15k. His number is 0333-5149239. I would never recommend you to go for a 660cc engine. Those engines make torque very high in the rpm band and you would be struggling to get the car moving since the charade is quite heavier than the 660cc cars. You would be better off with a larger engine. That way, with better power to weight ratio, you would get good mileage as well if that is your primary concern.

thanks bro ill contact him, well i used to drive a mira 660cc with fully loaded 5 persons luggage too and a/c on full time and AT and it still pull all these weight and yes good torque comes with very high rpm but its still better than my existing setup of 1000cc sohc carby AT setup and without a/c. i scroll on the road with this and prone to excessive honking by Idiots.
the other fact is that the 660 setup is cheaper than others but the main drawback is that it can only be used on plain roads not hilly area.bro how was 4efe running in this car and why u changed it? is it a problematic engine with this car chasis like mounts rework? how much was fuel average u were getting from it? u scarapped that engine?

[overspeed111]

Bro very shiny car where u live? i ll bring my charade to you

[aliahmed8]

It looks as if it just came out of the factory, but you actually made it better. Nice job!

4efe is a suitable motor for the chassis and is a good performer and served this car very well. It was only that when I got the car back, the engine was weak so I had to replace it so I chose the 2nz which I already had at hand. The 4efe was scrapped when this swap was done.

Thanks I spent the 3 days of eid to detail it to where it is. And I live in Islamabad.

Thank you for the photos of the two mounting points sir owais yunus.. if its not too much to ask would you be able to send the other mounting points.? Does this require cutting of the chassis? Thank you..

I'm sorry but I havent been able to open the battery tray lately because one of the mounts is under the battery tray. I got the transmission oil changed the other day and took a couple of pics and they turned out to be not so good as there was low light and VERY tight space.

Hello there, newbie here.

I know this is an old thread, however, I want to know how did you match axles with charade spindles, maybe on the 4efe engine.
I'm planning to swap a 4efe or maybe a civic engine into my charade.

I will appreciate a quick axle lesson. Does the Starlet spindles, struts are the same as the Charade ones?

Thanks!
