If I end up getting BJ's stuff I'm considering building a turbo engine for the AE70. Stock Bigport internal, eBay manifold, eBay turbo, 4A-GZE plenum, bigport throttle body, eBay intercooler, cheap piping, 4A-GZE ECU. Should make over 100rwkw on a safe tune, sell the car for $5,000-6,000. :wink:

 

What's more it would only cost about $1,000 to do it - including tuning. It's good when you don't need to worry too much about the results. :cool:

Someone would surely buy it lol.

 

Realistically depending on Hi-Techs workload I wouldnt imagine my car would take long to get back on road ay?

Didn't know it was in at Hi Tech. Or do you mean when you get it turbo'd? I put the KE55 in there to get it running again & tuned and it took a week. For getting a turbo installed, I'd play it safe and estimate three weeks.

Hrrm yeah I don't think it would take all that long but as hi-tech are usually really busy would take awhile. I was thinking 2-4weeks.

If they could work on it solidly, they'd probably get it out within a week. The trouble is they are so damn good at what they do and are hence so popular.

 

BTW - buy the AE92 4A-GZE halfcut they've got in stock. :wink: $2,600 apparently.

yeah I know about that lol

hitech are hella busy, buit i usually get my car back in 1-2 days

lol will call them up as soon as I get a few more parts to get a rough idea etc,

 

Any idea when next motorkhana is on? on dirt lol

fwd turbz on dirt?

I'll email someone to find out about the motorkhanas. There's a bit of doubt about the series at the moment.

wish i had 2.6k for that half-cut :/ seriously need more power, damn freezing air-cond stealing my revs...

 

or just let me buy that ae82 with the 4age in it and stick it in...

when i;m done adam ur gt4 vs my ae71 in a straight line :D

u'd probs win u got 4wd ahahah
