U realize that engine is near impossible to get.
The only two people that I can think off that have that type of engine is Keichii Tsuchya and Ieda Akira.
Now Akira's car is the bomb, hundreds time better than the drift king.
All at a cost of a $100,000.
Yes he spended 100g on a rolla

yeah i just wish i could get my hands on a front clip black top 3sge out of an altezza...its difficult since its not a common mr2 swap,the mounts are different but if you use a previous model 3sge set of mounts it lines right up...none of the places near me seem to be able to find one.
JC:
You know it's possible to make the engine that Takumi is running, simply by removing the VVT from the 4AGE 20V head... It requires a few valley welds here and there, but it's ENTIRELY possible... Not sure on the cost though, but I can probably find out...
That being said, I don't see any AE86 owners here rushing out to buy 20V engines to do the modification, as the rest of the engine needs some serious work to match
CooBlueDAB:
yes, making it is possible.. however, for people that will drool, lets remind them, that milling, porting, polishing, ballancing, springs, retainers, lightening of valvetrain, im betting higher compression, perhaps a restroking, better ignition system.... the works etc... would be needed. Otherwise, the engine would not make anymore power past it's current rev limit.. and it would simply blow apart as well.
Elchfaenger:
Some american tuners (don't remember the name) replaced the whole engine with a Honda VTEC from the S2000.
I think this is a better choice if you really want to stick with the AE86 chassis because the 4AG engines are old and even if their engineers were genius modern engines ARE better. spare parts for the AE86 should be expensive and finite as well.
