How sweet it is...

So in between being everywhere in north america in the past 3 weeks, I actually DID get time to swap in the japanese version 5EHFE into my Tercel (16v twin cam Cynos engine)... swap took about 6 hours (very direct, even the harness was the same). Anyhow, I must say I'm happy. Took it out against a friend's turbo tercel which he's been building for close to 2 years, and it was more like highway rape than a race.

Life is good.

Bring it.
There's a little blue Cobalt sitting 15 feet from me that would like to take a meeting with your Tercel.

Actually, bandi, as I said, I am looking for a vintage RWD Corolla, preferably AE86 vintage.

are you going to go RWD with it? or stay FWD?
Tercels are so light, even with a little work, they can be stupid fast.

Gonna keep it FWD, the 4AGE is the transverse version of the engine that's in the AE86.

NOW... if I could find an AE86 that's in not-salvageable condition, RWD would be a sweet option.


Heading out to shannonville motorsport park tomorrow night... I'll let you know how the Tercedes holds up.
