Yeah, they look reasonably similar

Ghostrider - I'm probably going to stick a PI donk in it soon, we've got a few spare, just cant be bothered changing the tank and fuel lines atm. I would just go for a TC or S engine for the extra torque over the 2 litre, but if I'm going to do it I want it to sound good... and sticking filters on each throttle on a PI engine and junking the standard plennum makes a fantastic noise, its rorty, growly and just generally fantastic. Plus we've got them down to a fine art now, basically never have problems because we get the guy in Sydney that tunes the mechanical injection metering units for the Forumla 5000 and Historic Touring car guys to do the units and send them back. Only problem is injector 5 sometimes getting an air lock, just leave the engine running, pop the bonnet, pull the injector out and tap it a few times with a spanner, then stick it back in

That said the FJ20E is appealing as it will rev a bit more, probably be lighter and will sit back a bit more

Edit - Oh, and as to where the engine came from, as far as I know its just an extended version of the Triumph / Standard 4 cylinder (which was a Massey Ferguson tractor engine) but with a narrower bore? Could have been the same as the Vanguard six?

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
