I just think that will give you the time to judge the engine and learn the characteristics of the car. Not for ever, just a few months.

I'm pretty set on boosting mine at some point! Now all I need is the money...  s:cry: :cry: s:cry:

Quote from: "mattbrown82"You might be able to reduce the cost of going 2zz by getting a pre facelift with a knackered engine.  Your no doubt aware of the issues with the early engines, so there are going to be lots going cheap with dead/dying engines.  

However, if you are going turbo you will want to do it on a healthy engine.

Is this talking about the prefacelift 2zz or 1zz?

Quote from: "dcod"Hi,

I've just swapped to 2zz.

Engine,6 speed gearbox, ecu, transponder (important) - £1500
Rogue Motorsport conversion - £1500

Total £3700 (including such things as decent manifold, sport cat, induction kit, fitting my supplied exhaust)

Am I happy? I can't find a smiley face smiley enough to represent my happiness.

Which induction kit did you go for bud?  Did you buy he MWR Dipstick and Engine mount as well?
Current: Genuine GT300 Monocraft running a 2ZZ-GE
Ex: Trial kitted Cam\'d Power fc
Ex: TRD stage 1 TTE Turbo

Don't actually know, it was put on as part of Rogue's conversion. I shall have to find out. Maybe I'll post some pictures of the work they did.

I bought a "Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine" to lose weight. I put on five stone. I blame the delicious gravy it makes.
