stupid estima van ?'s......

Post by Defective »

ok, a little out there but,

i read somewhere that some estima vans come with a 2.4 supercharged 4 cylinder engine... is this correct? and if so, are the engines any good?

and they are front wheel drive arent they?

could be a different sort of swap in my ae111...


but im thinking i either read it wrong, or its a diesel or something dumb like that lol
