    FE3 vs Zetec?

    If you go Fe3n it would pay to look around to try find the type with the better cams and hi comp pistons. I had a 4wd capella wagon that used for a conversion into a mazda bongo. I was surprised how well the capella went for a heavy wagon.
  3. Could run a w56 from an Estima/Lucida sorta van. They always turn up at PAP
  4. Iv looked into this also, the injector pump of 2.8 mitsi turbo engines work also and you get a boost compensator setup too. edit: yeah what he said Is the old brown custom a manual? This guy has a 1kz to w/g bellhousing FS viewtopic.php?f=15&t=35667

    FE3 vs Zetec?

    You can use SOHC Fe bits on Fe3 engines all the block castings are the same. FWD or RWD bits work so you get a few options on where to mount the alternator, sump/pickup etc
  7. Get some sweet 90s rims for it. I vote these
  8. Turbo 3rz? Good to see someone is playing round with these engines
  9. I could try if I see them on there lawn one day, not keen to knock on the door. The car is red and so are the owners I would have to be a brave man/get shot at
