I am thinking about someday possibly swapping a 4A-GE inline 4 from the Sprinter Trueno AE86, an awesome drift car. The stock torque would be worthless for a truck (it's 1587 cc) but with a turbo added, perhaps a CT-26 from the 2nd gen MR2 Turbo or even a CT12A from the '93-02 twin turbo Supra, torque would be no problem. My main motivation is the fun factor. It could be revved to the limit much more often than a 22R/22R-E.

You might be in rather uncharted waters for motor mounts, and tranny adapters.

But I think the big question you have to ask yourself is: what are you doing with the truck? If it's a "sport truck" then this could be a neat swap as yes you can build serious power. But if you want to offroad at all with it then this might not be a great idea as you will only make that power up super high.

As far as offroading, I'd use my existing '93. The 4A-GE truck would be one built from the frame up from parts taken out of the Yota Yard in Denver.

The one with the 4A-GE would be used for sports driving on the road.

Why not go 7MGTE or even 2JZGTE

Cause thats been done before!

Plus the power to weight ratio you could make with a light truck and a 4banger like a 4AGE would be insane.

HOWEVER you would have to promise me to put a proper exhaust on it so you don't end up with a Ricer sound...if it sounds like a Civic I will hunt you down!

I would never ever put a grapefruit launcher on any of my trucks (or cars), for that matter.

lmao " bunta " dont go intial d on us

The concept is itneresting, but a tond of work..

Id prefer a Starlet with a 4AGE swap (what was the stock Starlet motor anyway)

2WD with an 18RG would be fun too - as well as stealth
