Beginning of a new beginning. Recently sold the R16 and Project KA24DE starts.
In, out and about.

Hmm, looking good LOL
A bit of clean up in that engine bay and the KA will be quite happy.
Question for the List : What special steps are needed for the KA swap?

Doing this with the frame on, I've seen more pictures and post with the frame off but haven't really read much with the frame on, for others that may have done this wth the frame on please share your input.

Thanks.

Mine was frame/body on.

Take the outside fenders & grill off, makes it a bit easier to lean into the car and not dent them.
Do the oil pan mod first before doing any measurements on fitment.
