hi I'm wondering what running gear to put into my KE55S 2dr coupe it had a 4age in it i think but i wnted something else just wondering what the best thing to do is.. I will be using it for more street and stuff just a nice cruzer

thats a VERY general question man!

 

you could put anything from a ca18det or a 4agze to a 351cleveland v8 in it!

 

4agze would give you more torque, and a better base than the 4age, and you could then turbo once you got bored of the std power

 

but the ca18det would give you HEAPS of power with a few minor mods like: a re-map, z32 air flow meter, bigger turbo like a kkr 330, intercooler, exhaust and GTR injectors you would be looking at around 200kw! (note you would need a better clutch and upgraded brakes, diff, and an engineers certificate!)

 

and the future mods from there would be almost endless! also being a motor that MOST drifters etc throw away you can pick them up VERY cheap compared to the ridiculous amounts people want for 4agze's these days!!

ye thanks man hey me and ma mate were thinkin bout a 308 hey but we will see i guess but would that to much of a mod??

the car would handle like a bucket of shit with a 302!

but then again it'd do insane burnouts and go seriously quick in a straight line!

so u reckon the best bet would be 4agze??

I'm just tryin 2 think cos the guy said it was either a 4age or the 4agze I'm just tryin to remember exactly cos its still got the engine mounts there ready cos he pulled it out to put into a corona.. whata dik

 

is that your little orange car or is that what you want..

thats not my car, i have one similar, just mines a bucket of shit hahaha

 

4agze would be good, but will cost, as will anything really!

4agze, will be enough to smoke most skydores if you feel like having a crack, and do a fare burnout! your still going to have to upgrade your brakes, and diff etc

 

i would go the ca18det purely based on the fact it wouldn't cost as much and you'd be getting more power!

 

you will obviously have to do more research on both motors, I'm purely making suggestions based on some ideas i have for my car!

If you don't end up going for the 4a motor there would probably be a market for those engine mounts if they are any good. In my opinion i would go the 4agze as it's an awesome conversion and you are keeping it all Toyota. :)
