    Mukhang approachable siya at bata pa.

    ^pwedeng pwede. But mostly toyota efi engines ang gamay niya. Medyo hindi siya gaano sa carbs. Mas maganda you text or call him before you go to his place. May day job din kasi siya so by schedule ang paggawa. Though pwede naman niya isingit kung minor things lang ang gagawin mas maganda pa din kung papa schedule ka. The best yan, one of the honest mechanics in town.

    Great to hear this! I'm having my AE111 2e heart transplant din. BT 6 speed nga lng although i eyed the 4efte before. Ganyan din ang quote sakin ng kaibigan kong tuner din. More or less on the same price range.

    Pero 3 months thats quite long ah. Ang pwede mong gawin bro is secure the engine muna as their prices are inflating really fast! Heck, even a japan 2e surplus' selling rate is 45k na. Then tska mo isunod ung the next essentials - gas tank, brakes, fuse box, relay, gauge etc... galing kasi tau sa carb kaya ung swap is not as simple compared kung naka efi na tau.

    Pag kumpleto na ang rekado. Tsaka isalang! Unless gusto mo isang bagsakan tlga yan :D

    PS been quoted before also on the 'budget meal' way of doing it. Avoid it as much as possible. You're spending alot na on the engine and parts, might as well spend a little more for a decent installation. Otherwise sayang lng ang pera. Made this costly mistake with my galant before.hehe

    True. I have been quoted 50-70k for simply an engine swap, tranny and ECU included. But they are not going to make sure the thing runs properly. Im sure they will not change the gas tank nor will they ensure wiring is good... meaning the sensors will be wonky and so will FC.

    To be honest, Ive never heard of a KZ engine before.. I had to search google pa. 3.0l diesel pala sya... um, i'd say.. usual places.. banawe or evangelista.. otherwise, baka magpapaimport ka na nyan.

    Thanks Pippo. Yes, it's used for Toyota Surf or Hiace, Turbo diesel, with ECU. In my case, I'm thinking of converting my Revo gas 1rz to diesel 1kz.
