It would be a much better option to get your original engine rebuilt!

There isn't many second hand one's laying around, so there going to be costly.

Or you could goto a mitsu. dealer and get a new long or short motor.

I've had a customer do that before!

i seen em advertised at one of the import wreckers in the latest zoom magazine, cant remember the name of the shop but it was $3000 i think.

gto's are underrated in Oz, go check out 3si.org as mentioned and u will see the yanks rate the 4g63 up along side the 2jz for strength and potential :P buy one billet tf case and u have a damn strong driveline too as they are known to break tf cases. one gto ran 9.7 down the 1/4 mile and made 900awhp+ on stock internals :P and plenty are running 600awhp+ on stock internals and running low 11s and high 10s.

i got a gto and its an awesome car for daily use and zero lag with great torque, totally different style of engine to my rb26 thats for sure.

good luck

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
