Re: Engine swaps-what do you like?and where would you put it

Not really worth doing, given that the Subaru EZ30D and EZ36D will bolt straight onto the existing transmission and don't require custom mounts.

On the other hand, Subaru engines regularly find their way into old Porsches and Volkswagens. Cheap, reliable, powerful, easy to get parts for.

NOOOOOO.... Save the AE86's for those of us who like petrol! :shock: :o :shock: :o :shock:

Use KE70's or Corona's for your evil electric power!!! :P :P :P

Heard 86's the lig... wait, KE70 has lighter curb weight than the 86? :o :o

Then screw 86s, KE70s are slightly better considering the curb weight :)

I thought that the 4G63T would make 700HP more readily (and more reliably too!) than the 6A13TT... :?

But if you did do this swap, I'd take your 4G63 plus a spare EVO drivetrain and make an FTO Evolution out of them!

Even with an LSD installed that car would be undriveable!! :shock:

Just install a FWD BEAMS 3SGE in it; plenty of power but not enough to overwhelm the chassis!!! :lol:

That would be the craziest Starlet in the world if it has LSD!

Re: Engine swaps-what do you like?and where would you put it

I would love to put a 4.0 L AMC inline 6 in most any half ton truck. Use to drive a Cherokee with a straight 6 and have missed it ever since.

That sounds rather self-defeating, most other trucks will have better engines in them already! Just buy another Cherokee and save yourself the hassle IMO :D

Re: Engine swaps-what do you like?and where would you put it

Take the V6 from the 04 to 06 nissan lineup of Altimas/Maximas/etc, supercharge it, and stick it in an old 90s toyota corolla. Lovely performance engine (VVT, DOHC, pretty aggressive cam profile compared to others, etc) with a supercharger, loaded into a regular commuter? That's what I call a fun mix. :3

Why switch manufacturers when Toyota made a nice potent supercharged 3.5 dohc v6 themselves?
