More displacement is better for the same weight.

Go the CA18DET.

but fiting it would take more work for a ca18det?

dose anybody do 4agzte engine conversion kits?

can it be enginnered with a 4agzte and top mount turbo?

im asking these because i found a 4agze turbo 1600cc rwd top mount turbo with 180kw for sale and with that power it should be decent ride?

i think its easier to fit the CA... if you want the 4agze slap it in a corolla.

putting a CA in isnt at all hard ,for me it was harder putting my A14 in my ute ,but the Ca is easy because the mounts are kinda low ,but it does help when your rad support has been cut out

and plus keep a nissan a nissan not a toyota inbreed thing !

you don't have to cut your radiator support, but it will make changing a gearbox alot easier if you squash your motor up very close to the firewall like most do.

Yes you can get a 4age engineered with turbo, as long as the mounts are done properly.

You only have to cut the gearbox tunnel if your gearbox does not fit, lol I know that sounds dumb but it depends on which engine conversion you do, which floorpan you have, which gearbox you choose, where you mount your motor.

as for the maddat mounts for a 4agte, check their site for one, they have most of their products listed I think. www.maddat.com i think.

There is nothing wrong with putting any other manufacturers motor in, choose whats best for the car you want to achieve, its your car, don't listen to others.

180kw would be a fun ride, 180rwkw would be even better. Both engines have alot of potential in a 1200 as they put the power to weight through the roof, I'd imagine you'll be doing or getting close to 12's. But it really depends on alot of things you do with your conversion.

you could always put a low mount on and then once you pass rego you could put the top mount back !
