Just my 2 cents worth...

DO NOT TRUST JAPANESE MOTORSPORTS!!!!!! Mad Mad Mad Mad

I'm going through a 4age blue hat conversion so I decided to buy one of their 4AGE packages given that you get a genuine AE86 gearbox, engine & computer set complete + sensors so the job's a literal bolt-in.

Got the engine in last Saturday but damn engine's got a severe knock in it. Shocked A compression test showed that the 4th piston had half the pressure as all the rest.

I'm steamin' cuz it's like 99% there but then you now have to take the damn engine out again. Crying or Very Sad Dunno but I'm chasing them for a replacement engine (I'll keep everything else though) but in the meantime have sourced another blue hat engine (this time FWD) to go into the Sprinter. I did law at uni so at least I know my rights & that there is an implied warranty that the engine be fit for sale. It's just the hassle of chasing them.

Not trusting them ever again! Oh, woes on engine conversions.

Engine aside, I must say that having the sensors, computer and a RWD configuration engine (including extractors & manifold) severely cuts down on installation costs.

Will update you on what happens. If they really screw me, I'll be post whoring about their service pretty soon ... Not happy Den-zo!!! Mad
