Well, I have been problem free since I bought my car back in early 03. I guess I'm about due because of all the racing I do. I don't race a ton, but I do run my car hard a lot. I've noticed my car is now eating radiator fuild, and what's there is brown. And, I'm leaking more oil than I was, even after replacing the gasket at the camshaft, and the valve cover gasket. I really don't want to put another 5sfe in there. I was rather a 4age, 3sge, or 3sgte. Those are my choices, and in that order. What ever I find, and is most cost affective, I might put in. I might end up putting another 5sfe, or just replacing the head gasket. But I really don't want to do that. I have no time to mess with it, so I'm worried that I might stay with this POS 5sfe.

EDIT: Update in new post.

What about 4age?

I've thought about that a good bit. I searched it and got a good bit of the info needed to do it. Like Tweak said though, it's hard to go into a GT. For the same price, or close, I could go 3sge. The problem with the 3sge is the avalibility of parts. If stuff from the US mr2's 3sgte will bolt to it, it wouldn't be a problem. But I know there's some things that don't. They are two different motors.
