800 bucks for a fj20.. i wonder why so cheap?? oh i think i might know this one, maybey because the guy carnt sell it for wat its worth cause its not worth much as its old and the mazda parts being so expensive gee i wonder why... hhhmmm let me think, oh here we go its a really popular engine and is very comon and mazda knows that the market for these wepons are hot property, i know a guy with a 13b Perifial port datsun 1600 pumping nearly 400kw atw with a small turbo..and if you guys want real raw power the 20b will fit on 13b engine in the datto, so please ive seen every engine and thought out every conversion and added up everything on money for your bucks worth

giving money away? well if you can add up all your expenses and still then not be garunteed that your 1.8L is not gonna blow every time you give it then it will yeah any dope can achive anything but its maintaining the engine to keepit at peak....and thats where you will spend your hard earned cash.. save the cash and buy a decent engine that are still to day comon with 150-180kw. and if your gonna achive times the small 1.8 CA wont get thw results and feeling you want, stick to the A15 series and work that and save your cash son

mate if the FJ20det was any good go find one from your local wrecker or performance shop, i bet they will say WTF are you on about, FJ20det WERE good but as time goes by they will become rare and old and hard to find, just like the CA in another few years or the next decade,and if anyone can show he hard info on any CA running under 10s and very easy,
and who would be stupid enonugh to throw money on a engine when there are engines already out there with no mods and stock that already pump 200kw and will fit in the datto engine bay...
if you guys are after power find something quicker 13b s6,7,8 if you just feel like giving money away inverst in a old engine at the end of the day these conversions can cost up to 10 to 20K depending on your taste but you absolutly think you will get more than 5K back... there dirrt cheap on ebay...
but good luck
