that 4A-GE is overpriced.

the market value of a 20V blacktop is just a bit over a grand within the caribbean and under a grand for the 20V silvertop

and the AE92 GZE is jus under $500 for a complete motor

also the engine is available in the corolla GTs

but now if i were u.....i wouldn't go for a complete swap...i'd buy a Longblock GZE for bout $90.....used the forged pistons and reinforced block and get an exhaust manifold and turbo charge it....my friend in jamaica had one using stock internals and was running over 20psi boost


Now as for another comment about more Muscle cars than imports etc....That is totally off....there more imports world wide than muscle cars....Jus look at sales figures for top selling manufacturers

Next point, the world record for a STOCK block supra with only bolt on mods is 1200WHP. I do not know any V8s without going lower compression pistons and running on PUMP gas pulling out that kind of power

also for the guys with the 14:1 compression for their 1000+ N/a V8s....can u go to a regular gas station and fill up?...or do u have to run methanol or 100+ octane gas?
