This SR20 shite is, unfortunately, the easy way to have a competitive cam, even I know that. Thing is if you put a corolla man in an s body he'll smoke up the place like a hero, put an s body man in a corolla and watch him make a show of himself ha ha :p

Flame on !

Ha........ Priceless.........I was waiting for one of yous 2 to come in on this............Now thats highly debateable.........

Why do you think its shite.......... A good tuneable engine in a savage handling car......... Pray tell me whats wrong with this...............!

Oh and dont get me started on the other rocker breaking boat anchors :p :D

Yep, I payed 2 grand including vrt for my first one from japan, sure its the prices that made me go and build an E30 !.

And the Honda thing was firstly the cheapest way to N/A powered goodness and secondly because Im a closet Honda freak !

What you mean an SR in a corolla ?. Nothing wrong with it, if you want to be competitive in a cam then its by far the best route to go in this country. My yoke isn't even competitive anymore and anyone who asked me about the F20 swap was told the same !

Im just in the '86 corner saying they're not rusty heaps of shite but a mans car, driven by manly men who could get into almost anything after a corolla and drive the living shite out of it :D
