Choices, choices, choices...

Hello again fellow rolla' drivers.
I have the chance of replacing my tired old engine with a 4AGE (ST) 1600cc engine or the 4AGZE 1600cc engine???


Now which of these two would you recommend?.....or none of the above.

Depends on what you want.... do you want speed or do you not. Do you want to spend extra? Etc, etc, etc...

Now I am confused.
I thought both engines were quick, only one had the better torque, whilst the other had more hp....

So what engine would you buy if you had the chance?

You got it all wrong.
The 4A-GZE has more torque and more horsepower...

4AGZE is the only way to go. If you don't like the power-off-idle feeling of a supercharger and want high revs, you can slap a turbo on instead of the supercharger and everything's set to go internally.
