ok so i think i've gathered from this whole forum that the least favored engine of all our cars is the 7-afe but hey most of us are stuck with it. So i've looked around and checked in most post for what everyone has suggested meaning: turbo, nitrous oxide, engine swaps. But turbos for this engine are not only hard to piece together but cause alot of issues. Now what i'm asking for is before we turbo and nos we need internals right? cams, rods, pistons, heads redone...ect. but these are hard to find from what i've looked. maybe its just me and i'm really crappy at looking for parts. soo to make this short if you know where to find cams for a 7 put up a link. if you know where to find FORGED pistons, post a link or light weight and stronger rods....you know the deal by now THANKS guys and girls for the few of you out there

ah yes, looks like you've chosen the mature route on that one.... good job buddy also.... if you go back look at what is engine specific and is a waste of time & money (according to your opinion)... the rebuild (big deal, not really a waste..... you can easily gain lost compression) 4a-fe pistons (part of the rebuild, the oem parts can be cheap) thinner head gasket (part of the rebuild) underdrive pulleys (can easily sell those to other 4/7a-fe owners at slightly lower cost) and the header..... now all of that, isn't going to cost ALL that much.... the rest is preperation for what's next on the car (either 20V 7a-ge or possibly 7a-gte)..... and also, not everyone is building their car to beat an h22 powered civic in the straights......  and to be honest, seeing how there are so many 4/7a-fe owners that are building their car for some sort of high revving n/a application (his original intent) you won't find much at all in terms of "research"..... most owners are way too cheap... so in essence, it's somewhat uncharted territory..... also, an H22 civic would take a 7a-fte celica as well, so you really can't say much in that department... i'm willing to bet you've spent quite a lot more on your turbo setup... and seeing how you keep bringing up if one can beat you or not, you seem to care about it.... |
