Hate to rehash an old post but.........
I just rang up an engineer here in Vic who said he will approve ANY of the Jap import engines for my AE71 as long as:
- all the components are stock
- factory ECU
- suspension and brakes upgraded to suit
- there's no cutting of chassis rails, firewall etc.
He said that because all the jap import engines have a stock power output, in theory, of 206kw the power to weoght ratio is within acceptable limits.
Hope this helps the Vic modifiers on this forum.
