I just want a really quick little street car. Yellow Rolla's car is the sort of thing im after. I just dont know about the 3tgte with it being so old, are parts hard to come buy with these motors?
These are the motor options and my thoughts.

(1) 4age - would be easiest i think, but not as quick as im after
(2) 4agze - better, start running into gear box dramas
(3) 4agte - Is what i want, but gearbox drama
(4) Sr20det - 2 litre illegal
(5) FJ20det - 2 lite illegal
(6) Ca18-det - Not a big fan of these, prob a bastard to fit anyway
(7) Rotary - 13bT and 12aT is illegal, 13 na is illegal, 12na i think would be abit slow for my liking, unless its worked off its tities (but then it would prob just blow up).
( 8 ) 3tgte - dont know much about them
I was thinking of a 4efte, it would be neat. But then again ive never seen one in rwd format. Would be gearbox problems to.



Jasons car is awesome!! 3TGTE is a bit long in the tooth, and afaik pretty exxy for what they are. his 3T is a hell of a lot better than most tho, so he'd be a great person to ask about setting up turbo stuff...

i agree with your motor thoughts... but gearbox will always be a drama if you are shooting for over 200hp, and occasional abuse. better to do it properly the first time and widen the tunnel. it may not need to widened that much.

there are 4EFTE's in RWD starlets around the world.. so it is possible, and iirc they used a T50.

a well sorted 4AGE would be quite a fun little car, without the turbo dramas and cost, but for my money, i'd either be going 4AGTE (prolly custom bellhousing? and wider tunnel), or a BEAMS 3SGE (lots of dramas, but very satisfying!)

3SG will be higher front cut cost, but is a great little motor, and is light too, even compared to a 4AGTE. and you can run it dead stock, and maybe even get the 6 speed g/box, or the tiptronic auto? (check out Bills page.. it's into an AE86, but that's what i'd like to do atm)

for cheapness, 4AG, best peak power (but could be very peaky) 4AGTE, for best all round drivability and future emissions compliance, 3SGE.

whatcha think?
