Off the top of my head i can think of the following, as i was contemplating this conversion myself, but i won't be doing it... as the Xr8 i was going to pinch the running gear from is too easy to repair body wise, rather than stuffing around with the conversion.
v8 Brake booster & Master cyl V8 engine bay brake lines to suit above V8 engine bay wiring loom v8 power steering lines v8 front springs (and shocks?) v8 a/c hoses v8 radiator shroud (unless using thermos) v8 exhaust system Maybe also the subframe? Cheers ToranaGuy

Some of the bits should swap straight in, but some, it depends. Is the NL equipped with ABS? The EB2? That may make the booster swap an issue. Wiring loom - good question. The engine loom is the important bit, but will the NL plug into where it needs to on a EB2? Cheers ToranaGuy

Totally gut the 6cyl car and used everything, I mean everything from the NL and put it into your EB. Should be a nice project
 You will need to swap the looms, crossmember, steering(because it is a NL-EB swap) and dash. Really depends what you want in the end. Do you still want a EB with an EB dashboard? If so, you wouldn't use the dash loom or engine loom from the NL. If you're going to use the NL dash, then you have the handbrake and seat issue which can be sorted.All I'm saying is that the more you swap, the easier the job is. |
