KE70_supercharged Posted June 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 thanks mate for the info about the 3k head..so I'm guessing a simple fit ? or does the head need modification.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langerz Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 hey umm i can't find anything that is worth reading.if i put a bigger engine it say a celica engine would i have to change many things? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KE70_supercharged Posted June 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 aah i sort of asked the same question Langerz, instead of a new motor..i was planning on installing a supercharger, if forced induction isnt the way you want to go..try the easy mods such as extractors, exhaust, 3k head(up compression), reground Cam, port and polish...the list goes on..up to u though mate happy to help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 you don't have much money to spare, but you'd rather buy a bodykit than some sort of performance or handling based item that would genuinely improve your car? here's a great site for you with heaps of like minded people http://forums.toymods.org.au/ we're interested in real modification of cars here at rollaclub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
