Perdana SEi engine

[sly]

Hello,

I am considering to own Perdana SEi. Then I am looking for transplant. So, other than V6 engine (6A12), is there any engine that suitable for Perdana SEi engine bay. But, I am looking for AUTO transmission ONLY.

Hope u guys can share some info and advice.

Thanks in advance.

hi there,
as i know is unless change back the original engine so that the "kaki" of the engine only can the same place.
if other than that then need to build a new engine "kaki" to fit it.
there are a lot of engine can suite in perdana engine bay....
someone built in cefiro engine also...
gear box??that's not a problem just depends what you want.
engine and gear box are different part.just tell the foreman that you want to use auto gear will do...
GOOD LUCK... :D

hi
if i'm not mistaken, perdana sei engine code is 4g63 rite?
u can go 4 evo 1,2,3 other than 6a12 or 6a12tt

wOWWWW...CEFIRO V6? ... THAT MARVELOUSS. ...

afraid to maintain a v6 ke? hehehe :D imagine: 6 plugs , timing belt and waterpump replacement, bla bla bla.... hahaha ;)

its not hard to maintain a v6 engine you know... and this engine also very smooth if you consider just to use an auto gbox. if not why don't you try put evo III engine and combine it with auto gbox... malaysia boleh!!! kekeke :D

I have upgraded my Sei to V6TT (auto). Very satisfied with the performance of the engine, but it really burns my pocket on the fuel consumption. Full tank (RM80) can only manage about 300-320km, town driving. But if you want power, you have to sacrifice on that.

Word of advice, JPJ will not 'lulus' your conversion if you modify the mounting. But, you really don't need to do that as the conversion route is quite big. You can go for Evo 1, 2, 3, VR4, 6A12, 6A12TT, 6A12 Mivec. All these engines are plug and play for perdana chassis.

Happy converting...

Thanks for the info... I just wonder whether the VR4 come originally with AUTO? ...

 

[xerofighter]

there is 2.5litre V6 vr4 auto. its from the galant series. although its called vr4, i think the engine code is different.

i think d engine u mentioned is from newer model of Galant......

 

[xerofighter]

yeah. cant think of any other auto vr4 at the moment

 

[Darkax]

sweet... im actually planning to mod the same car also.. =P
maybe we can do it together =]

how about eterna twin turbo ?

btw how much is the vr4 for manual and also turbo ?

 

[Yong_5290]

perdana SEI is SOHC 4G63...so its very suitable 2 put in 4G63 VR4...
4 bangger is lighter than v6...maintainance cheaper...lots of things cheaper..
power also more than 6a12TT...

 

[huakenny]

alots of ppl throw-in 6A12tt....at highway not bad..smooth.....

 

[ziggie]

hi sifus,

talking about 6A12 V6TT, it's possible to dump in the engine to wira cassis?
do we need to mod the mounting? i saw in Car marketplace forum, a putra with V6tt. im very much intressted to learn bout it :_:

auto engines:

6a12tt auto

price=around rm3k

maintenance=expect to pay A LOT

driving in town=pick up not so power

driving on highway=very smooth coz v6 and not afraid to go fast coz perdana ma

turbo=2x tdo2


vr4 auto

price=around rm3k

maintenance= hell lot cheaper than 6a12tt

driving in town=pick up cun

driving on highway=can go fast la but not as smooth as 6a12tt

turbo=td04



if u ask me, i rather have vr4 auto. using td04 turbo.(but why not manual ah? hell lot faster than auto.) get vr4 rs manual or evo manual la. all using td05h twin blade. lagi best wei.

I think 6A12 Mivec will do. But donno got manual tranny or price la.

 

[tatatititututoto]

if u think that 6a12tt not enough power than get the 6g72t lah (3.0 GTO engine)... it's more than 25%... hahahaha if ur lucky u can clear jpj. but damn powderful engine wei.

 

[aku_sangap]

well, if i were u..i'll go for e3's engine...fuiyooo...stimmmmm weiii!!..haahah...

p/s: but, 6a12tt's sound damn nice weii!!..ahahaha

 

[ctquah]

hmm.. sounds nice too but i dun think i need such a powerful engine.
Wat about 4G63 VR4 that's mention perviously? izit better then my original engine? and its mention that everything is cheaper, wat do they mean by that? fuel consumption and maintenance? wat's the price like for the engine.. etc and installation..

2.5litre V6 TT (6A13) transplant on Perdana

Hi I'm new to all this transplant biz,
(late starter)

Some questions on the above :

Has anybody (or know anyone) who's done a transplant of the 2.5 litre V6 TT (6A13) to a Perdana? I know there's a lot 6A12 TT transplant but not quite heard of 6A13 (not even sure whether it can be done).

Is it still plug and play? Do you need mounting modifications? Other issues/difficulties?

Thanks for the help!
