Ah mb, im not too familiar with Toyota engines, non the less car looks amazing
frail zodiac

Do jdm car guys freak out when they see your trueno?
frail zodiac
God damn, i didn't know that, i was thinking of maybe getting one, but they are so expensive, so i might just get a cappuccino next
broken moss
those can be hard to get. was looking at getting one myself. i hear they can have seruous rust issues
frail zodiac
I looked at importing from japan (im in canada so its not that bad) a decently clean one woth about 80k kms for under 10k canadian (about 6k euros) thats import fees and everything covered
broken moss
thats not terrible if the car is clean
my car was imported. 6k euro for the car. by the time it arived it was 11k
frail zodiac
The car is very clean, no rust on the pictures ive seen, no tears in the seats or dash, its bone stock tho what isnt necessary a bad thing
broken moss
dont worry you are gonnabe swapping a a hyabussa in there anyway
frail zodiac
Hell no, the 3 banger is staying, they sound mean af at high rpms
broken moss
oooor put a gr/corola yaris 3 banger in there
frail zodiac
Potentially, but i wont be able to rev it to 11k rpms then
broken moss
tru but you will have like 5x the hp
frail zodiac
tru but you will have like 5x the hp
But 5x the fuel consumption, the car weighs 700 kilos dude
broken moss
thats not how that works lol
frail zodiac
I know im being overdramatic
broken moss
its gonna have about the same mpg as a stock cappucino after the swap
they are already very close in their respective cars
frail zodiac
Well maybe but the gr corolla is awd
broken moss
which is why its going to get even more mpg when its inside the cappuccino
just because its awd in one car doesnt mean it has to be in another
frail zodiac
I know that, has it been done before?

thats cheap as for importing
frail zodiac
thats cheap as for importing
I know right
broken moss
I know that, has it been done before?
you doubt it. you could be the first
frail zodiac
You right
broken moss
all you would need would be custom engine mounts. gear box adaptor , and probably a beefier gearbox to handle all that extra power as well as diff
frail zodiac
Thats a lot of money bro lol
