I'd like to know too. I am doing a 2.3L turbo into a van.

Opinions on which is better:

Castlemaine Rod Shop conversion

or

Gemi Spares? Camry & Volvo conversion

Cya.

i have nearly finished an FJ20DET conversion and have upgraded my brakes to volvo rotors and calipers. The conversion is quite simple. It just uses sleaves for the standard gemi bearings, like the ROD SHOP. You hav to upgrade your mastercylinder bore size too. Anymore q's just ask.
