not if you acctually look at your options...
straight up, 18rg and a 1gge (no turbo). i found that it was VERY hard to find a cheap (sub $500) 18rg... when i looked for a 1gge my first option was about $500 inc g'box, ecu, loom, etc etc, and you get more power too.. roughly 50% more then the 18rg i believe. weight is quite similar, the only catch is the need to change the fuel system, and a few other bits... fitting becomes trickier... i don't need to rehash all the 1G fitting instructions...
the advantages i saw here, was that later on after i've done other work to the car i can virtually BOLT in a 1ggTe.. i'll have the fuel system in, all the mounts are already there, g'box done, sump done, only major work i can think of would be the intercooler... a mate of mine has 1ggte in an ra23, it's got over 200rwkw... and i tell ya, it goes like free frangers at schoolies week.
