I'm planning on swapping in a 4th gen 3sgte and want to know what's recommended to be swapped or replaced or repaired while the engine is still out? Is the waterpump interchangeable with the 5sfe? Should I replace the oil pump seal and pulley seal? I know they're a common leak on a 5sfe. Here's the list I've made talking to a friend of mine with a st184 4th gen swap.
Interchangeable with 2nd gen Front main seal #90311A0005 Rear main seal #9008031073 Alternator belt #909160229377 Power steering #99363-70760-83 Cam seals #9031135040 Injector Seals – 2zzge - 9030107024 Timing Belt – 3rd gen - 13568-79105 Wire - Wiregap Clutch Kit – SouthBend Oil – 10w30 Spark Plug – NGK Iridium BKR7EIX -------------------- |

I cant be positive on the 4th gen but 3rd gen does not like iridium plugs. Just a thought maybe to look into ^^ Good call, I didn't even notice the spark plug selection. Stock plugs are BKR6EP8 or PK20R8, both are double tipped platinum plugs. I'm going by what my buddy has been using in his 4th gen for 5 year . Lol. I'd take his word . Kirk inserts are definitely cheaper. For my own personal use, I intend to replace my mounts again and leave the Kirk mounts out. They won't crack the welds like the MR2 though. They just transmit a little more vibration than I like. That's just personal preference though. IMA see if my mounts are good or not. This is a "budget" swap. Lol -------------------- |
