Raven Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 You'd need a T50 gearbox to bolt up to a 4AGE anyway, unless you went out and got a bellhousing that will adapt a W5x series gearbox from a Supra. Go the 5k and get that going hard with a set of side-draft weber carbs. That way you don't have the hassle of wiring up an engine and adding a lift pump and surge tank etc etc to your current fuel system to get EFI to work on the car.

Tiger Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 How much did you want to spend? If you ain't got much to spend, then go the cheap 5K fix. Otherwise, if you have the funds... do the 4AGE swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwarf Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 You've stolen my line. K motors have their place, and contrary to your belief, not at the bottom of the ocean. Pity you never got to see Evo 1 with it's k motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OniBerserker Posted May 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 (edited) man i got the cash its just that...you guys are going to hate me but its only a corolla i really don't think that its really worth spending over two G on my one k power sounds the go il save my G's on a SC400 / crown v8 Edited May 28, 2006 by OniBerserker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjenman Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 (edited) quit it, k motors are bulletproof, simple to work on and extremely cheap um... you get what you pay for... its pretty obvious k motors aren't going to match engines that cost like 10 times the price ...and they don't go THAT badly Edited May 28, 2006 by rjenman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OniBerserker Posted May 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 (edited) oh and I'm not sayin A corolla isnt worth spending my money on just my ke70 *sigh* Anyway 5K it is il be back Edited May 28, 2006 by OniBerserker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
