    LOL... You'll definatly have to show me when this MYSTICAL occurance happens...

    Your obviously extremely deluded..

    I teamed with Josh from the time he put his 'first' 1uz in his car and also lived with him for a year.. The stockpile of 1uz's under my house then said your theory has MASSIVE holes in it..

    We did the same amount of events (maybe he did 1 more) over a 14 month period and he was on his 4th 'more reliable' V8 and i was still on my first..? Both had about the same results with many event and series podiums..

    Just giving you the real life experience..

    ^^ He wsan't talking about boat-anchor 1UZs though, he was referring to the masterpiece of engineering and reliability that is the 253. Now there's perfection.

    those were the good old days, labouring rev building, poor torque, crappy build, those were some sweet donks,

    but in all seriousness, nothing wrong with a turbo 4a if the compression is not too high, and you dont run stupid boost, and you set it up on a decent ecu. Last a long time,
    some people just rebuild their engines without the knowledge of lots of little things, and they go bang.

    sc14 on 4agze is a good thing, but i would rather save for a nice turbo setup.

    i've been thinkin bout chargin my 7a... either that or 20v head. the thing that i love bout chargers is the instant torque that comes out off them, no wait for a turbo to boost up

    In any situation i'd rather have an n/a motor than a turbo motor. Never driven a 4agze but from what I hear they're similar to drive as the n/a 4a's in terms of response etc.

    From my experience with turbo cars you're taking away enjoyment for outright speed/power.

    That may be your experience but its not really the point. It doesn't take away any enjoyment at all.? How could it?

    I loved my 16v... And thoroughly enjoyed it.. And i really love my 4agte?

    serious skids = money tree, 4agte, sr20,3sgte, etc

    fun: 16v 4age. thrash it, thrash it harder. if something goes wrong look for the next wrecker motor.

    but thats my view on things...

    Yeah that was pretty much "me specific", was only offering that as personal opinion.
    I've been biased by the e92 m3 I had to play with last weekend. Going back in to my s14 made it feel like I was pushing the accelerator pedal on a bowl of pudding. m3 - soooo much response.
