Finally A decision has been made!!!!

Postby cozmoid » Wed Aug 09, 2006 11:29 pm

It's only taken a year but I have finally decided what to do with repowering my AE70 notchback

I was thinking of a 4AGE or 3SGE conversion but sorta wanna keep the theme of the car original. These engines are far too new for my chassis so

My car used to come out as a GT TE71 with a 2T 1600cc twin cam engine.
This is goin to be my choice. I am going to make it into a GT.
Its going to be a bit of a job but some of the details and parts are already confirmed

What I can get!
2t block with oversized pistons etc (becomes 1800cc)
Head and cams etc is no prob (will be mildly ported)
My cousin is going to build the engine (he has the wicked blue KE30)
TE71 crossmember

What I need!!
Supra gear box
XT corona rearend
bellhousing for t series engine to w series box
Silvertop quad throttles!
Link computer
Custom intake manifold

If anyone can help me on my search for these parts please message me or leave a post

Cheers
RWD Oldskool Forever!
