July 13th, 2008 01:01 PM #1Hello everyone. I am planning on building a project car. My options are as follows:
'95-'00 galant with 4g93T GDI transplant
'96-'98 accord with d15b vtec transplant
'94-'98 corona with 3sgte transplant
'95-'97 camry with 3sgte transplant
I am not a racer. I just want decent performance with better fuel economy as these engines are all rated above 130HP. I am sure many of you find these cars appealing but hate the fuel economy. These engines are smaller than the stock engine but have higher horsepower (as compared to the original engine) except the toyota 3sgte which has the same size as the stock 3sfe but have higher rated horsepower.
I am very interested in doing these engine swaps as the prices of all these cars are very attractive now because of the gas prices. I want to experience driving a car for a change.
Here are my requirements:
- fuel economy
- decent performance
- good ride / suspension
- good ac
- executive look
- nice classy interior
- availability of parts
- interior space and comfort
- crash confidence
Hope to hear from you gurus especially those who have actual experience with these engines. thank you in advance.
Are they on track to surpass last year's sales?
