wait so this is just the standed 850cc motor that your driving around? or the built 850/660 hybrid?

i may be looking at building up a hybrid motor for mine. what are parts like to get? like pistons bearings head/gasket sets ect ect.

not trying to plug but, these would look cool.
13x6 +offset CSA globlines (mk1 looking things)


buy these off me, will fit nicely.

Nah, just running the standard ED-10 at the moment. The hybrid will come a little later if I can be buggered building it up and shelling out for all the machining and new seals, bearings, etc.

Last I checked, a full gasket set was about $250 and all the bearings were another $100 or so. Not sure how much new pistons are worth, but any Toyota dealer should be able to look up for you. You should be able to pick up spare motor bits from someone who has done a swap for a turbo motor, or someone who has replaced a motor. Also keep in mind that the hybrid motor is theoretical at this stage. I've never seen one done, but it all works in theory. i.e., the head will bolt up to the block and you can use the same timing belt, dizzy, etc. The compression ratio will be rather high too (13:1 or thereabouts from rough calculations), so take that into consideration.

trikzlane: Already got some new wheels in Japan. Thanks anyway.

you wouldnt happen to know the 660cc CR?

[ill-minded]

I do indeed.

EF-EL (660cc) is 9.8:1
ED-10 (850cc) is 9.5:1

[ke_70]

ah sweet thanks

[ill-minded]

Yes, that is a giant dick on the hatch.
