Unreliable? Pfft where do you get that idea from? With $6000 you'll probably hit the gearboxes limit at something like 230kw. I think if you spend your money wisely thats an easily achievable figure for that kind of money. The gearbox is the major expensive hurdle with SRs but once you're past that and you've got forged internals, skys the limit.

 

This is a mates old silvia. I think he ended up going close to or over 600whp. Yes it was laggy as hell, turbo was a little on the (too) large side.

 

 

 

A t88 on a sr20 will do that, that car has been through many incarnations, now its heaps less laggy and makes

heaps more power with heaps smaller precision turbo

300rwhp is considered safe with a stock sr20det, this will require a good tune,an injector upgrade, and a gt28rs.

 

That combined with the purchase price of the motor and gearbox and your money is mostly spent.

 

Gearbox will live at this level if you be nice to it, and never use 5th gear under power.

 

Not many people need more power than that in a little corolla.

 

 

 

 

and yes BEAMS! :yes:

4age 20v silvertop is the way to go my friend more reliable than sr20 and stronger internals, good luck bud.

 

Proof please mate. Especially the 'stronger internals'

 

Hahaha, WHAT DAVE SAID x 1 BILLION

 

The only 'unreliable' feature of the SR is the rocker arms breaking which there is a kit to fix the issue.

 

I have driven a lot of quick SR's including NAT200 and Marks 180sx which did 11.95 in street trim, the power delivery of the SR is exceptional.

That.

reckon the stock sr20 auto would hold to 300rwhp?

 

and to answer the question to the thread. how long is a piece of string?

 

 

mmm... beams, yum. there is a reason why they cost so much to.

would also save alot of money if i bought a corolla with an sr20 in too

well for 6k youll get shit loads of power, internals?? I'm talking from experience i had a 99 model sr20 and the bloke that built it and built my 4age reccons internals are better well he said both have there ups and downs don't get me wrong sr20 is a tuff engine but personally i would go 4age st anyday.

Thanks for clearing that up, I thought it was all the pixie dust in the fuel.

 

 

You 4A fanbois crack me up :laff:

lmfao ive raced a few stock sr20s with my 20v st and shit all over em don't forget for a 1.6 compared to a 2 ltr thats pretty good champ.

although the only mods ive done is ecu and reset vvt to kick in as soon as u touch the pedal.

:lolcry: you my friend, should be writing articles for hot 4s magazine.

why is that champ??

Do you think it would it would if it was standard you fool.

no need to get upset mate whats wrong with some of u pple on here?! if i wanted to start a fight you would know about it!! for a ke30 i would personally go with 4age thats my opinion some pple agree some don't I'm jus giving the bloke some ideas no need to take it to heart mate jesus.

 

aftermarket ecu thats rite 1.6 how much more hp u think I'm gonna get I'm competing againt a 2Ltr not any 2Ltr a sr20 remember that i thought i would have no chance but i was wrong. at the end of the day like i said they both have ups n downs theyre both good engines and are both capabale of big hp, for a ke30 i would go with a 20v silver thats just me no need to call me a fool coz your the only one thats a fool for getting upset,

 

take care champ!
