What is your 'wanted but never gonna get' engine setup, or maybe your wanted and obtained engine setup?
Mine would be...
The current bottom end in my 86 corolla(its 7 rib I beleive?)
Redtop Connecting Rods and Crankshaft, with new bearings ofcourse...
4AG-ZE Pistons bought from a toyota dealership. I just read their 84AUD in australia, so that turns into 82 bux cdn, so lets just say 100nchange to be safe.
(btw, my compression would still be 8.0:1 or 8.9:1 depending on which MR2 pistons I get right? seeing how the redtop crank and rods are the same as the 4AGZE?)
with 4AGZE injectors. and a megasquirt for fuel control
Ok, so why not just get the 4AGZE?
cos the 4agze averages 1200 without ecu. and this setup comes to around hmm lets see...
500$for pistons,
200$ for bearings (not sure)
400$ for a redtop engine from the JY, cheaper if I could get exactly what I needed from someone here,
300$ for megasquirt (i hope its something around there, i dont know how much they cost)
100$ for the GZE injectors
this comes to 1500, and its all safe and brand new... And the redtop internals have oilsquirters...Is this in the rods emself? or do I have to move that pipe looking thing into my current block? (does the gze have oil squirters?)
Oh and I realize I haven't worked in other costs, such as tires,clutch, and rear end... lol, might even twist a driveshaft...hehe
Whaddaya think?
