seabiscuit Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 You'd have a lot better chance at getting a rotor registered and probably fitting it up, too! Up to you. There's still lots of nice 4 bangers out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13BT_KE20 Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 depends what you intend to use the car for, i rota can be mounted much lower and further back in the engine bay and is alot lighter than a V6 so is a much better option if you want the car to steer. Pure burnout/striaghtline car a V6 will do the job perfectly, at a much cheaper cost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tally Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 and they sound insane aswell!!! haha!!! But have heard that they are becoming very rare nowdays, and most would need a rebuild... + hard to get parts... id say go 13B, if its built proper and is looked after you shouldn't have problems...

Tally Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 well a ke30 engine bay is roughly the same size as an 808/1300 etc so no probs fitting a rotor in there... a 20B has been put in a KE20 with no firewall mods haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
