[QUOTE="Acoustic, post: 515933, member: 728"] KE86 - I disagree with 4AG more reliable than other engines. I seriously BELIEVES all domestic engines are equally reliable when running below the manufacturer's specified red line, using all specificied parts / conditions. We've seen allot of 4AG owners having problems immediately after transplant. Lets not talk about labour problem. Lets talk only about engines. Some had 1) water pump problem 2) head gasket problem 3) piston rings 4) crank bearing 5) valve seals and allot more Some of these people are extra bad luck - after repair still SAME problem, not other problems, while others change to different problems. I don't think 4AG is more reliable than other engines. It's just a hype and a dream I was told and believed last time. It's all fake and I don't believe that anymore. I can recall everymonth there will be a new zth toyotarians crying about his / her problem after a transplant and usually it's not about labour but purely the engine itself. However I do believe that maintaing a 4ag is allot cheaper than other exotic engines like honda and my argument is 1) 20v complete engine gasket set RM300 2) 20v crank bearings RM150 3) 20v piston rings RM150 4) labour RM300 to 500 RM1k to overhaul 20v as well as 16v Not sure about other engines. I think Nissan's GA18 will be as cheap. It's also a very good performing and reliable engine. [/QUOTE]
