The story is i got this old AE90 that i've been using for a while, the problem is its a bit on the underpowered side with its original 1.3 2e-e engine. I did a few research and found a few engines that can be swap in but unsure of which one is the best. Any sifu here are familiar in the topic and what r the usual budget for a swap for that particular engine. What i'm really looking for is reliability & power, something that can really take a trashing.

Here's what i'm considering:
1 - 4age redtop
2 - Silvertop
3 - Blacktop
4 - 4agze

what's the usual price for a blacktop complete with the gearbox, ecu & such?

its funny how auto is much cheaper than manual for the blacktop

i presume its not gonna be a direct PNP procedure? custom mounting is needed izzit? i heard i need a custom CNC mounting on the left side for the AE90

juz love toyota ae series, solid cars all around
thanx for the advise, now can start looking for the new motor, blacktop here we come

noted. thanks sifus

alright, will do, thanx a bunch
