Nah i honestly reckon you could.. How much is a 20v these days? 4agze can be had 1000 - 1500, Sell the charger for 400~ Use that money to buy a t28 and an ebay or decent used turbo manifold, run the water/ oil lines etc etc.. It's certainly do-able..

 

I'm with you Jono!! Even getting one to make and handle 250+rwkw isn't overly expensive.

 

 

Ohh well i could have picked up an ae82 running a 20v a while back for 1500, ae82 had been resprayed and sound systemed and that so i could have 4ac'd the little beast and sold that off for 500 haha, which leaves the 20v and loom and ecu costing about 1K :) with the gze you still need the loom and ecu to suit as well and they don't come cheap.. :/ and i don't know much about turbo's.. yet :)

but yeah i guess know the right people and its do able

I don't even like 20v's anyway haha i would go the gte even if it did cost more hah!

I saw an unrego'd ae82 with a blacktop 20v in tassie early this year, about Feb? for $500!!! I missed out by about an hour.. Only wanted the engine and loom but still haha

just a bit of a tease pic of my new car and my r34

^ those wheels look cool, sort of like the older bmw ones.

Also if anyone can identify this motor in this ke? its bugging me now haha

Edit: just notcied, no brake booster clutch master or wiper motor hah. wondered why it looked so clean..

Bit of 20v hate going on here isn't there. But which of you have owned one? :P

I wouldn't even attempt to build a GTE unless I had $10-15k to throw at the motor. And only the motor. And I'd be starting with a 7A and my 20v.

 

:D

I just want a worked 16v with ITB's?

Ahhh 3sge... just looks strange with no plastic covers and shit i guess. And te72/ ke70/ ae71 whatever they look the same to me ha, unless they've got a dirty 4k..

cheers for the link too, very tidy car

You're right. They're much better.

Anything JZX sits right with me.

that blue corolla is a serious bit of kit.

 

i see it doesn't have a brake booster, must have some trick brake/clutch reservoir happening in the foot well.
