Hey, well im writing to find out something simple.
I have a 4AGE 20V engine in my EE90 corolla now, but it spun a bearing and needs to be changed. so im thinking of going GZE
I need to know, what mods and things will i need to buy to get the GZE up and running.?
I used the Axles from my old engine (2E), in the silvertop and they seem to be holding up well. But will they fit into the GZE GBox?
What elce should i be worried about to do this. Im kinda tight on cash so i need to know how much money im going to be spending b4 i actually spend it, and run out.
Thanks.

why not just get a 16V or another 20V if you're financially strapped? you'll a beefier axles for the GZE coz they have more torque.

Where i live, the cost of a GZE and the cost of a 20V are about the same. sumthing like $1200.US complete with ECU harness and g.box. Axles will cost extra.

But if i knew what i had to prepare for i would know what i'm up against.
My main concern is that the axles from the GZE fit into the hub on the EE90.
If the splines on the 2E axle work in the 20V gbox, i dont see why it wont work with the GZE gbox.
Are the splines different on the two engines?

gze is an e-series box, 4ages have a c-series, i dont know for sure, but i doubt theyll fit together, and if they do, they probably wont last for long.

Lots of people run GZEs with C52s from the GTS.

Ask Aaron (4AAronGE) he runs a C50 with his GZE on his AE101.

lol this is where the ABC's get confusing. are you talking about the mount from a E series engine (ie; a 2e) or are you talking about a E series tranny mount (ie; an e58 tranny)? lol

ok retarded question, its the E series engine

..im guessing its not the same huh.
