	Hi guys, i've got a rolla with a 4agze in it and recently the engine has just shat itself.. now if anybody knew me.. they would know that if they gave me a spanner i'd probly start banging away at the engine like a primape going bananas     
 
i have close to none experience on engine work and im looking at a bottom end rebuild on it, i know this is a good engine worth keeping especially when it gets ripped out for a new project coming along. 
 
i've searched the forums and didnt come up with what i was looking for   
 
 
my question is, whats a rough figure for a bottom end rebuild on the 4agze (parts&labour) and where would u recommend a place to rebuild in sydney  
 
thanks for reading my post

	I just got mine done so I can give you those figues     
 
Clean, bore and hone, linish crank, deck block, shotpeen/polish rods, balance rotating mass, grind flywheel, main/conrod bearings, thrust washers, full gasket kit. 
 
That was just my bottom end. I had a full head servicing as well though. For those bits there, cost was about $1250. If you need pistons as well, add about $600 for new GZEs with rings. 
 
Also note that this DOES NOT include putting it together. This was just all the prep/machining work. Me and my cousin are putting the thing together. 
 
I got all this done at Dominator. Terry's the owner there and he's also a Toymods sponser. If you're going to do something this big, just sign up to become a member if you're not... the discount you'll get will pay itself off tenfold. Trade minus 20%     
 
Eddie.
