hi cl, how much murali charge you everything? how is ur old engine and gb? u trade in or take it back?
half cut itself cost me RM3,800, installation + wiring RM1,800 and change all the necessary mechanical stuffs is about RM3,000. I traded in my old engine and gearbox to him and he minus off RM700 (cheap?) from the total cost. This is way over my budget and i have to put my new sports rim and skirting on hold! haizzz...

What!!!!!!!!!!!
how come your price so much diff from mine?halfcut i got fot 3500,labour 1800,same but my parts cost is 4500??thats only basic items that need to change.and he take my engine for 400 bucks only...im also over budget and my plan to repaint have to postpone also! haizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....
Next time, I buka workshop..........kite buat transplant sama-sama...hahahah
You should try to search buyers for your engine parts before starting the transplant.
Mine all parts already been booked.....just wait for the car to enter the 'ICU'....
CL & icydv6...why ur part price of v6 so much? what stuff u change? i also convert my lantis to v6..my halfcut is RM4000, installation+wiring RM 1200, i only change timing belt and all oil for engine,gear box and brake fluid that cost me around RM800, others stuff i mantained not to change
thats murali's style.he change everything so that after 4 years no need to change anything except oil.well,according to him la.my bad, actually 4.5k already include labour.CL, to you still have the receipt with u?perhaps i should make detailed comparison with yours.murali gave me quotation stated as;
- 1pc timing belt ori, 245
- 3pc timing belt tensioner ori, 460
- 2pc timing belt crankshaft oilseal, 44
- 2pc timing belt crankshaft oilseal, 36 (just noticed this,whats the diff with the one above?)
- waterpump gmb japan, 235
- fan belt, 38
- a/c belt, 36
- 2pc ori valve cover gasket, 230
- ori real flywheel oil seal, 98
- 2pc driveshaft oil seal, 44
- u hose, 14
- engine oil, 74
- gearbox oil, 36
- power steering oil, 18
- brake oil, 18
- coolant, 22
- a/c gas&oil, 65
- plag iridium, 312
- 2pc cam seal plag, 56
- ori petrol filter, 45
- brake twin servo, +-280 (murali couldnt find this.so use back from halfcut)
- spray engine compartment, 250
- labour,wiring,dashboard,suspension, 1800
total = 4456
still, price not include all hoses, clutch if faulty, brakes and exhaust welding
is it roughly the same with u CL?other people may want to advise?

exactly the same as mine. mine was RM3000 + RM1,800 so makeup to be RM4,800. My halfcut clutch pad gong oledi, so have to change a new set which cost me around rm400. brake servo he couldn't find it so i also use back my half cut one. and... shhh... he didn't charge me for the RM250 engine compartment spray because i found that he use black can spray to hantam only, sooo... hehe...
so ur rm4.5k havent trade in ur old engine la? take back ur engine & gearbox and sell it seperately. jangan kata saya cakap!
Guys, I must comment, Murali really charge expensive for the parts leh...
better buy the parts by yourself....

waa... KL... 2500CC one wo...!! Lantis boleh tahan ka??
lantis sure boleh tahan.but my pocket cannot.MK boleh la...
KL engine cannot register to JPJ... so anything goes wrong... sendiri tanggung and if JPJ do roadblocks... and find out about it..they will sita your car maaa.. That y now someone already change back / wanted to change back to KF....he...he...panas...panas...
just picked up my car from murali yesterday.finally.took 15 days,sigh...but worth it.but i got screeching belt when start the engine and turn the aircond on.murali said belt not set in yet..any tips regarding this engine?my 1st impression was low down the rpm theres not much oommph.is this normal for this engine?but on hiway is like sky and earth compared to 1.6.but still 100kmh @ 3.2k rpm is quite high for me
around that range lar muaiz.. but the consumption is surprising as good as 1.6 plus the extra power...vromm vromm
