Whats the craic boys, i was thinkin about rebuildin the engine in the cam, or else puttin an sr20de into.
I was wondering has anyone on here done one before? and if so how much does it all work out at?
Im not a mechanic so id have to give it to someone to do ya know, jus tryin to decide what to do.
Moneys tight enough but if the sr conversion wasnt to dear id hold off and jus save more money for it.
And im thinkin keep it n/a just because its my daily as well so less trouble
One if the lads has an SR20de and it goes really well and sounds nice too. Not sure if it's that good on petrol though.
Cool, i had a non turbo s14 a few years ago and the engine never gave me any trouble at all.Quote:

i had a sr20de booter be4 and it was plenty of fun but for the hassle the conversion cost id got turbo or just put a gze in itQuote:

Hmmmmm how reliable are the gze's? do they take the same abuse as the 4age?
there very good, cooling is the only thing you have to sort out, you want bigger fans etcQuote:

youl be a long time spendin money on a 4age to get it anywhere near the power of a gze, far cheaper puttin a gze in it insteadQuote:

Definitely, gze/gte is a good way of getting power for a decent price.Quote:

The money you'd spend getting one fitted & running one, you'd have much more value with a turbo sr ..................
Call down to me with a big wedge of cash and i'll fit a yamaha beams for ya
gze it for sure, would keep up with a standard sr20det all day long. much easier conversion too
ah now hang on a secondQuote:
