1JZ + AE86 = Pain.
if you want to put the engine into a toyota,I suggest you take Norbie's advice,and go for a *A60 celica/supra.
the bay is designed for a straight six.
the sprinter is designed for one thing alone-the 4AG.
going for a silvia isn't a bad idea,as it's virtually a bolt-in proposition to go from a CA18/Sr20 to an RB series 6cyl.
grab a skyline crossmember,and off you go! the cross member bolts straight to the silvia floorpan! no toyota swap will be that easy.
the 1JZ into an S13 would be painful,and for what? not much more power potential than you can get from working an RB25.
Ribbo:
Nathan has a beautiful car,but I reserve my judgement on it's handling. I just don't see how doubling the weight over the front wheels can give no ill handling effects.
as was said,one man's idea of top handling is another's idea of a boat ride. look at the americans...they wouldn't know a good handling car if you ran them over with one.
with a 4ag,the sprinter is damn close to a 50/50 balance.
how much heavier is a 1GGTE again? couple this with the fact that the 1G was in the 4A's normal position -in front of a std firewall-meaning more weight in front of the front axle line than usual,and I don't see how it could be unchanged.
I'd love to be proven wrong however,but I doubt that will happen.
Justin...
