hello friends,
i am thinking of getting a cheapo car and dumping in a 6cyl turbo engine. 1st and foremost my preferences for cheap car is either toyota corona, cressida or nissan bluebird triple s. was wondering any suggestions on which car i should go for and why? lazy 2 google so i ask u sifus here 4 help!
2ndly i really don't know which engine 2 drop in... so performance wise which is better in stock condition?? 1jz-gte or rb20? i only plan 2 lightly mod the engines, maybe larger front mount i/c and re-do piping, big exhaust piping with big muffler, blow-off, wastegate, open pod air filter, maybe up boost a bit depending on how much stock ecu and engine can allow la.. also big rims with wide tyres. so which turbo engine u guys go 4? i can't afford anything better than 1JZ or RB20 by the way so pls don't say 2JZ or RB26 cos budget's very tight.
then besides engine and brakes wat else do i need 2 do up in terms of the wheelbase? longshafts, axles, LSD etc... this one i'm truly clueless man...
lastly, anyone selling a done-up cheapass car with 1JZ/RB engine in it? cos that would save me some workshop hassle la.
any help/offers very much appreciated. thanks a lot!
