twitchy Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Anyone have an idea of availability anymore or the cost of said engine????????????????? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwarf Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Which one? Theres about 6 versions of the 2T-G, and about as many of the 4A-G. Can you be a bit more specific as to what you want?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiahn Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 and also depends what condition you want it in, if you want a tight 4age to just drop in then you would be looking at between $500-$1000 i have no experience with 2t-g's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you want a 1.6L DOHC Toyota engine that isn't EFI? That'd be the 2TG then. The more information you give us, the more we can help you.

twitchy Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 2tg would be the one then. My project suzota engine is still undecided as yet, was thinking a 2TG would be nice. Project has to be auto as the missus can't drive stick. Cams will be going for a visit to Tighe for bottom end/ mid range improvements, will have quad carbies from a GSXR600. The other option is the Vitara engine I have here at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other option is the Vitara engine I have here at the moment. Why go to all that effort if it's just going to be auto? Easier to teach the missus how to drive manual :P (I did) And putting bike carbies on and going through the hassle of tuning them isn't likely to give you best results considering the 2TG already has twin sidedraughts Mikunis on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitchy Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Tried to teah her to drive stick but ....... we'll just leave it at that....lmao. Didn't relise it had decent carbs to start with, although it depends on how they go on weird angles as this engine will be destined for my 4X4 project.

dale72ke20 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I think you would be much better off putting a vitara motor in ( I'm assuming you have a sierra or an old LJ??? ). Been done before by lots of people ( me included ) and it works. Given vitara auto's are reasonably common you could just buy a wreck and go through the transplant process. Trying to match up a toyota twin cam to a ??? brand box, getting stall settings correct, dealing with carbie issues , mounts, clearance priblems etc etc etc YUKKKK Another option I saw once was a fuel injected 16 valve swift GTi motor ( or head, I'm not too sure ) modded to go in a sierra, it was peaky but hell it sounded good and was very reliable.

corollaart Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 My 2.5 cents worth 2tg are old as me ,or older ,over priced , maybe not over rated but if you find one they will want to much for it. When theres the better ,lighter , more common 4age { more common is that a word } 2tg are for the die hard rally guys. Because stupid cams would let us run 4ages. As for auto don't no. :hmm: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
