4AGE


And if you want more power, use a 4AGZE which is the supercharged version. Or use a Turbo.

If you have an 81, the 3tc is a good motor, just out of date and hard to find parts for. If your interested in getting the most hp for the money, the sr20det would be the way to go. I wouldnt suggest that for a ae86 though as the motor is a bit more heavy then the 4ag, but in a 81, the 3tc and the sr is about the same weight and size. You will need to find a better rear end to handle the hp gains which also means you need to make a drive shaft too.

For the amount of money your going to spend and the time involved, it would be easier to just get a s13, but then again it wouldnt be as cool.
