So i might have the hook up on a another free 18rc IF that falls through I have 2 options. Get a 22re from a friend for $400 w/harness,ecu and everything. Or Get a 7mge (cressida) from another friend for $150 w/harness, ecu and everything. The 7m is obviously a faster motor, but I don't to fabricate a lot right now. Any advice is appreciated.
the 7m (or any straight six for that matter) is too big to fit the hilux engine bay without a lot of metal work. my 1uz v8 barely fits and thats with moving the radiator about 3" forward. i'd suggest the 22re.
A 22RE is still going to be work to put it in your truck. A 7M will take metalwork. But why do it half assed? American V8!
22r well you can always go 2rz but that a gonna be alot more but here some inspiration not mine http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=dPoNHMx3HcE
A 7M isnt as bad as you think, but it is still time consuming with fab work. Honestly if you were gonna go the 7M route ditch the GE and get a GTE. If your gonna go through all the trouble you might as well get a boosted one!!
Thanks for the advice I actually got my hands on a 18rc for dirt cheap and its freshly rebuilt, Imma stick with the easy route for now,
