its only in the tear-down stage right now, I'm working on gathering money together to pay for parts to get it back together. Bearings, new carb, seal kit, etc.

yeah, well. Such is true, but if it were going to be a swap, I really liked the rotary, and really wanted to learn about its ways. So I supposed it wouldnt be that bad.

Although, I'm getting so many projects, I wont have enough space or money for my ultimate project: supra truck. 2J in a small taco chassis.

keep in mind, you didn't before discovering the one in your newly acquired "86" and since it's not running, you're still not using one. "catch my drift"?

Goto time out, you said "catch my.... you know"

And no, I knew about the unsprung clutch in my early days when I drove down past texas city to see oniel, and he had one.

As if It couldnt get any more knock-off, I found a way.

BAM HKS oil cooler.

wow... just get it driftable

Yeah, thats the idea, but I dont get paid until the 15th. Or if I get some of my ebay stuff to sell I can proceed. But until then, its going to just sit in the shop taking up space.

nothing... just like them better. would've felt better if it was done to a zenki sr5

but you have a kouki...

ae86-kouki I think, and isnt the zenki a ae84 or some shit?

ae86 is the chassie code... zenki and kouki = ae86;

I could see a rotary in a starlet because its so light and small... but in a corolla it makes me shake my head.

In a Tacoma, you do not need a 2JZ, the newer model engine can handle pretty good amounts of hp, easily taking 200whp on stock internals. A Hilux on the other hand you will want to find a 22RE, or even a 22RET. The 22RE can handle insane amounts of hp. People on the Celica GT-S website have claimed 250whp on stock internals, not just one person, more than 60. The 22RET is said to handle 300whp.

Thats pretty weak, seeing that you can get a low 420hp with stock everything. But for an extra 150$ you can balance the eccentric shaft and be able to push that further, and hit an easy 11krpm.

2cycle ftw.

Somebody should make a 2cycle 4 cylinder for a car would have insane top end.

[CBR_TOY]

[hvguy]

Yeah I still have... it.

Im wanting to trade it soo badly, but my employer is lagging behind on paychecks.

I am holding his 22ft trailer till he pays up tho, so its kinda worth it.

[CBR_TOY]

so you're gonna just have a rotary 86 and that's it?
