one more thing,my friends say to swap to RB20DET engine.but i saw in YouTube,mostly Mat Saleh swap this 190E to 1jzgte engine...so any comment bout this..?

 

[YuHaNiSa]

my friend swap to rb20det to 190e..1jz also good

 

[TurboRojak]

owh..so its optional wether i want to use 1jz or RB20...so thx yuhanisa...one more prob is how bout engine mounting?want to create new mounting?is it approval by JPJ..?how bout CC..?my stock engine is 1.8L so if i want to swap to 1jz,its 2.5L..is it legal..?4 my info,CC can increase only 25%-30% from stock CC only...hmmm,sory if i too much questioning,coz i dun want any unwanted prob occur later...

so lucky for owning 190e...been dreaming of owning one myself...

just wanna ask.... is it hard/expensive to acquire the engine from 190 E 2.3-16 & 2.5-16 "Cosworth"?

if i got the $$$ and the courage to mod such a fine classics, i'd go for the engines mentioned above or just an SR20DET...think it suited the chassis better n still within the max capacity allowed

then again...i'm just a dreamer, up to you TurboRojak... all the engines mentioned have been transfered successfully so far...just get a good and experienced mechanic

as for approvals...I'm sure we can get done one way or the other riiight?!
