    I'm not a fan of built motors..? Very few people know how to do it reliably.. (Motormans S13's motor = super strong) And its a rare thing to have them work for an extended period without hicups.. Josh went through a couple of built internal 4a's pretty quickly..

    Mine is a fully standard 4agze with a HKS manifold (cast baby ) and a T04b turbo.. I'm running an Adaptronic with a safe tune.. Its boosting at about 12-14 pound i think.. We changed the bearings when we moved the motor to my car but it was completely unnessisary..

    Thats the ticket mate.. Do your time in the NA beast then move to my sort of setup and you'll be great.. Just make sure to upgrade the running gear to keep that reliability through the whole car.


    Yar. It lets the factory magic out..

    The main part of the theory is that toyota spend 100's of 1000's of dollars on R & D, who the fuck am i to say they are wrong lol..

    stop being a dickhead and taking my jokes serious,
    4a is good for learning ofcourse but if you want to be competative it takes a fair bit of money to make a 4a keep up to others,

    You want torque to drift, 4AGZE has alot of torque.

    Cheeper way would be SR20brodet

    theres no doubt that the most reliable thing is a manual v8.
    then it would be an sr20's, although i've heard from friends that rb20's rev harder and make more torque? anyone with experience in these please elaborate coz im only going based on gossip.
    cheers fil

    rb20's rev harder and are more reliable then a SR but they dont have more torque. saying that manual v8's is the most reliable set up is such a broad statement that its just going to make you look like a dickhead

    ^ In QLD it's the other way around .. every drift day at LEAST three RB's die, one CA (they aren't THAT common anymore), and only occasionally an SR
