looks a lot like a Pacesetter... it might also be a modified 4/2/1 TRD header Pacesetter http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j143/oldeskewltoy/AE86%20headers/Header-Pacesetter2piece2.jpg TRD from the TRD catalog... http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j143/oldeskewltoy/AE86%20headers/header-TRD421streetf...

Hmmmmm, I'd think in a plenum that large they could fit a A2W* intercooler... Air to Water... http://www.laminova.se/images/technology/intercooler-principle.jpg ... that way there would be far less intercooler plumbing, and the charging unit (Rotrex) would be plumbed directly into the manifold

Club 4AG crashed on new years.... they were able to get the new format up... but as of yet few of any of the old posts have made it into the new forum

Tony... Loynings has 27 SCCA titles to their credit(along with a few Bonneville records)... what kind of recorded success does Quick Silver have??

I can't speak about Hasselgren... but Loynings will build all kinds of engines... and you don't have to spend $15,000. I only spent $2600 with them for my engine.

Why no S2000/SR20 or even 3SGE Toyota section in technical? What gives? hmmm, wasn't it you who told me this is an FR-S site now :D this IS an FRS site now lol but we can still have 3SGE and a bunch of people are S2k/SR20 swapped too. It'll keep that swap traffic to those sections instead of cloggi...

So the 4agze has a compression ratio of 8.1 and the regular has low 9's as I recall. Does anybody know if the physical length of gze connecting rods are shorter than typical age or is it the pistons? Or is it both? Just curious before I start buying parts for my engine. it is all in the piston crow...

Hmmmm, broken valve, or could be blown out head gasket... nothing else I can think of will suddenly cause the engine to lose all compression in one cylinder

Use break in oil - I prefer(have used) Joe Gibbs BR30




And for break-in procedure.... either pretty much works......

i dont exactly know for sure but on the cam thing of using a small port intake and a large port exhaust cam is supposed to help evacuate exhaust gasses faster but if you plan on doing some head work the head work will do the same thing as running staggered cams. Oldeskewltoy can explain this better...

think about that.... tight enough to suspend almost 5#s with only 1/4" deflection.

The roadster you posted appears to be a Sunbeam Tiger... small English sports car with Ford small block under the hood

Just out of curiosity, I was under the impression that the LSD rear ends were only available in GTS and of a different size. I'm not talking about gear ratio. I'm talking about dimensions. So is it safe to say that a GTS diff won't fit on a an sr5 housing and vice versa? Or am I ill informed? You a...

color of the cam covers doesn't tell us anything......... *IF*, when you say redtop you mean a smallport head/engine, then it requires some additional parts to make it work in rwd configuration... since it was only offered in fwd format. A largeport head can make similar horsepower, the smallport he...

ebay

they are usually attached to a 3SGE BEAMS... sell for $1500-$3500....

OR you can just buy it fully assembled, ready to bolt in from LEEN


ADDITIONAL places to search... JDM engine importers....

Ok... so you want to know more.... Currently there are 3 options: 1) a minimal kit[€1292], 2) complete kit[€1815], 3) fully assembled including a USED J160 transmission - BOLT-IN READY[price dependent on transmission cost] http://gearboxconversion.com/ email your enquirers here - USA@gearboxconvers...

Robert...... Will you put up an ad on Yahoo Japan? I've been giving some thought to doing a cylinder head specifically for the Japanese (Yahoo Japan) market... and it would be very cool to do a full build thread, and then follow its success (or failure) on Yahoo Japan. So... do you initiate ads on Y...
