    Ae91 Trueno Engine Swap

    Yes bro... The brakes are fine. Pads and the disk were in good shape. BTW I didn't maintain 160, wanted to see what she's capable of. Got back to 100 after that

    Ae91 Trueno Engine Swap

    Yes the lights are damaged. This was first advertised on 1km@n and later it was advertised on AL, bought it after seeing it on AL. Went to see her the very day it was advertised on AL and bought her 2 days later. I think this is how the front should look The 5A-F carb engine is not that bad though. Managed to do 160 on the highway, with AC on and carrying 3 more passengers.

    Yeah bro they said that they only have the gearbox. She might look good on photos but the paint job is not perfect and there are some rust spots as well. The all important Trueno badges are missing and I think the front bumper and the lights are not original.

    Searched around Wijerama today and called the place Muditha got his engine from. Still no luck Anybody know of a place that might have the blacktop with the 6 speed gearbox, E.C.U. and wire harness?

    What about the guy who did the conversion? By the way, was it your Trueno I saw parked opposite T0k1m0 about a week ago? Yup he's the one. I had a chat with Muditha and he recommended a place. I should have a search around Wijerama area. BTW, don't you only need stuff like the pistons and rings for an engine overhaul? ( I'm not that familiar with the process)

    Asked the price of the blacktop which was advertised on R@pidR3vR@cing. He wants 350k for it. Is this the normal price for one?

    Ae91 Trueno Engine Swap

    Yes the black-top wold be the easy option as ae92s came with 4ages. But I also visited a garage to get an opinion on the matter and he recommended a 4efte with a modified block (to make it 1.5). He said that it would fit the existing mounts as well. So what would be the better option? 4age or 4efte? Also thought about 3sge and 3sgte but as you all have mentioned it's not a straight forward swap. There is also 4agzes but aren't they a bit rare in SL? The ae92s also came with the supercharged version. My goal, at the end of the day is to make more power while not compromising the reliability and handling of the car.
  10. I'm thinking of swapping my Toyota Trueno's 5A-F carb engine for an engine with more HP. She is my daily so I want her to be reliable as well. Please suggest me a good engine along with their pros and cons. I need the engine 1. To be from Toyota 2. To fit into the existing mounts, without any fabrication of the firewall 3. To have E.F.I. 4. To be available in SL with their gearbox, wire harness and E.C.U., for a reasonable price 5. Not to screw-up the weight distribution of the car Currently considering 4age (black-top, silver-top), 4agze (heard it's a bit rare), 4efte, 3sge, 3sgte (not sure whether these will fit an FWD) Thanks in advance
  11. How's the progress Mr. iRage?
  12. I believe engineers of various disciplines are involved in this project. Not only IT guys. Don't know how experienced they are to handle a project of this caliber but they shouldn't be underestimated. The reason behind targeting the hyper-car market is to establish the brand and with the success of this project they wish to diversify their market. Guess I can't expect everyone to appreciate the efforts of our people. I'm certainly proud of them for attempting such a project.

    Are you aware of the level of quality of their corrosion repairs? How pricey are they?
  14. What are the "BUILD THREADS" in this forum?
