ok, i was thinkin about putting in an fj20 turbo, but being old i thought it would be too unreliable, so now i'm thinkin g200 or g180, just wondering how fast they do the quarter mile, any problems they have, stuff like that, any help would be much appreciated, thanks boys

have you thought about a rodeo 2.6L. even a worked g180 n/a will go hard... put twin carbies, extractors, etc. etc.

anything modified will = $$$$ when it comes to insurance, as far as they know ive got a stock g180, but excess is still around $1700, and 280 premium for 3rd party fire and theft

so basically, turbo is gonna be just as much as a 2ltr twin cam or something like that....for fucks sake...i hate insurance
