I think the 4age is a sweat engine for a 1200. They can be sorted out and withstand a huge amount! I have a few pics of a 4age set up il email them to you if you like

Yeah there is a fair bid of body deadner but I've pretty much worked out if I use a 3 tubs of it max it's really only an extra 15 kilos which I'm not to fussed about. As for the engine I might upset a few ppl but im putting a 4age 20 valve something abit different hence the s13 brakes.

You're gunna hafta put a huge donk in it just to move the extra weight of the body deadener!
Sure beats cutting rust out though! I hope you cleaned up the rust underneath first cause it'll still rust away under the deadener.
Other than that good stuff! Keep the piccies flowing......

well made some more progress i've just put the front end back together. what i've done is shortened standard 1200 struts and i've put rx7 shocks on which are shorter and also has a larger shaft. i've done s13 brake which are all brand new and i have also replaced all pushed, ball joints, and tie rod ends. The wheels im using are 14 by 7 ssr witch are +15 offset, then to top it all off i body deadened the whole inner guards and holy #OOPS# is that stuff hard to get off but its all done now and doesn't look to bad. let me know what ya think
