1. I don't regret doing my swap. It took forever, but it really didn't cost me too much, and I'm pretty happy with the engine now. My Honda ricer buddies all think it's just an amazing engine, because they call it "the Toyota B16A", and they love Civics with B16A swaps. But everyone in the know hassles me and tells me how stupid I am for going with a 20 valve 4A-GE instead of a 4A-GZE or a 3S-GTE, not realizing that due to insurance and parental implications, I can't have a car with forced induction. They also don't realize most of the time that my stock engine and tranny was dead, and I would've had to replace it anyway. I'd rather have gone 3S-GTE, but it just was not possible for me. 2. I'd driven a MK1 MR2 with a stock 4A-GE a long time ago, but at the time I didn't even realize that it was 4A-GE-powered. I've never ridden in any 3S-GTE or 4A-GE/4A-GZE powered vehicle besides that one prior to starting my swap. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
