[JHJames20]

i was told the 4ag-ze / 4age / 4afe etc .. etc .. is possible.im looking for the most power under $1200 but w/a jdm swap preffered.i'd love to go all-motor but the ze sounds nice too.whats the best swap for this car what is needed for that particular swap and what model is best to start w/the gt-s ? base model perhaps ? thanks im new and i've done alot of searcing but need more info.

Good luck dude.. unless you're DIY, you won't swap under $1200.. I don't even have a motor yet and I'm already at almost $500 CDN.. finding a Silvertop 20V for about $500 is easy as I already know of one, that will run me to almost $1000 CDN and that's not even installed yet.. If I get someone to install it, probably about another $1000 or so after its done and I'm not even sure what other parts I would need yet. Unless I do it myself but I don't really know what I'm doing so it would be my first time. I'll need an engine hoist and some air tools which I don't have, and probably other things I don't know about.

i do my own swaps and im not to worried about 20valves either i just wanted to see what it took tp drop a 4a-ge into a 90-91 corolla 5spd.is all.

Dropping it is easy, getting the motor to run and doing the wiring and hook up will take you longer. Like I said.. as long as you have the tools and the parts you need, you can DIY and probably do it for about $1500.

And yes.. its better if you start with a GTS, everyone will tell you that. I've seen some nice sedans done though, but after a few upgrades done.

ever heard of a decent toyota truck running some good times ? like the 93-92 or earlier models ?

[REN69]

Not much into trucks really, I bet the guys in the Truck forums would know though.

not really, the trucks are for the most part slow
