| thats rodeo? twin cam? if yes then only need a remote break booster and itl slot in nicely. if you have the time/inclination upgrading the breaklines wouldnt go astray and i think mounting the engine back a bit will help weight distribution therefore handling ^. |

nah he means the toyota engine i think...
personally id stick with the isuzu engines if you want it to be easy. alot of people talk about doing nissan engine conversions though.
im sure its possible to throw a toyota donk in there although i'v never seen it, and as pete said the isuzu (rodeo, twincam, piazza) motors bolt straight in and probly less hasstle for similar HP |

go SR20 boss.
simply due to the availability of aftermarket parts... makes this a much more feesable conversion (in my opinion.) |

| not after heaps of power just a little more go and i can probable get the motor for a a couple of $$$. if i want more power later, thats if i do the conversion i can just get a 4AGZE and bolt that in. after a turbo conversion though. |
