why are you even on a car forum man? lol

its a 1600 (1586?) cc 4 cylinder n/a engine, known as a 4A-GE. in SILVERTOP 20 Valve form here.

the silver cam cover sort of gives it away :P

i still cant understand why your spending money modding your daily driver, your ment to leave it as a " hack " to get to and from work and use the cash you used on that on your Real project car thats full of BHG goodness in the garage.

yeah i know cliff, its kinda unfortunate timing.
But the redtop was leaking more than a bottomless bucket.
red tops in good nick seem to be going for stupid dollars.

thanks to Lee i got the engine package for $400.
Probably cost me a couple of hundy on top of that to do the conversion so far.

while i was at it i found 2 engine mounts that were naffed, so hopefully once the car is going again it will feel alot nicer (was shaking abit before)

And if all else fails and i need the $$ for the supra i can sell the fxgt which will have a higher resale point now due to the engine conversion.

but yeah supra is now a project car and can wait.

But to keep you happy. it got some new toys for Xmas. stay tuned. 8)

oh conversion silvertop 20v into an ae92 fxgt

cheers
