1988ae82rolla Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Doing a B18 would be infinitely harder due to the engine spinning the wrong way.....And if you are so much in love with a non-Twincam AE82 Seca, and would divorce your wife over it, you have serious problems dude. yeah, ican see what you mean by that... may have been a slight Exaduration, but if i sold this car and say bought any rwd rolla and then did the swap, it still wouldnt be my car... i love this car for its shape and allround easyness to drive, ecept the non-power steering is a bitch....

Adash =P Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Why not go 3SGTE if you wanna be different? Also, 200hp+ in a FWD is shit. If you want power go RWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwarf Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 $15K won't get you home. BTW I don't rate D2 coilovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phife Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 (edited) As much as we love rollas, a SOHC ae82 is hardly worthy of an f20c. I reckon most people will think it will be a waste of a highly prized engine. Edit: If time and money were really no option, convert it to rwd, now that would be different.

Jono Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 any fwd corolla isn't worthy of an f20c, especially yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to agree with Hiro here.... You have some issues :P There is no point acting tough stating your love for your car as that will gain you no extra respect around here really. Listen to what people are telling you in here, most of them have all done conversions before and know what you are up against. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGH ROLLER Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 F*ck all the haters champ, if you wanna do it....and it is doable....go for it! those s2000 motors are lethal! so as long as you don't go cheap-o on the rest of the package (getting the power to the ground), i don't see why this car couldnt do great things... keep us updated, Mark M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benzo Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 $15k will be no where near enough to complete the conversion Instead of striving so much to be different, why not go for a more simple conversion or just buy a better car. I am sick of people saying "I want to be different and do something that hasn't been done before", and then have a small budget. Cheers, Ben.

Also no point being different if the end result is still gay :P There is a reason why people do certain conversions - because they work. There is a reason people don't do certain other conversions - because they don't work/or are too expensive. I saw a S2000 for sale for $33k, prob cheaper to buy that than do this conversion.
