What would You do if your motor blew?
 

This should be an interesting poll. Hopefully the poll is inclusive enough for everybody to select their option.

i ask myself that question every time i think about going FI

ej25 sti motor?

2JZ

I built my motor so if it were to blow up I would laugh it off, call myself an idiot and figure out where I screwed up.

built or crate, same result MOAR POWER!!!!

FA20club build!

laugh,call a tow truck get yelled at by the wife and send it to @FA20Club.com then get yelled at some more...which is exactly what i did :thumbup:

Where's the "shit my pants" option for the poll?

Part it out, back to stock, sell it like its hot!!

I wouldn't be worrying about the fuel pump crickets anymore....

:happy0180:

Get it replaced under warranty.
:burnrubber:

Fit a fully built Turbo TC motor

Where's the would-have-been number one option to "Put everything back to stock and try to defraud Toyota or Subaru to replace it under warranty"???

Another good one would be "Blame it on the HUGE DI issue". LOL!

How about build my own motor.

Build my own motor.

What would you do op?

Step 1: Laugh and say I always hated boxer engines.

Step 2: Swap 4g63

Step 3: Rule world.

Why?

Because racecar.

Probably go with a built motor

Yank it out and drop in an LS.

build motor

This does have a lot of appeal. I wonder what the weight and CG differences would be.

If I didn't want to get a built FA20, I would swap for a RB26. Maybe even a built RB. If I had more cash to blow I would see if I could find a RB30 out of Australia.

I'm surprised I don't see more people considering a RB swap.

Who cares? If I had blown my motor I would be a snivelling mess. An LS would easily put a smile back on my face!

The LS is a tight fit. I don't know if an extra 2 cylinders would fit long ways? I think the RB would really be pushing the boundaries of length and height.

A friend of mine has a RB26; I think I'll have to pull our cars up for a side by side picture and take some measurements for shits and giggles.

build a new one

I would pull it, take it apart, see what is damaged, then order up the parts, then take it to someone to put it back together correctly depending on what is damaged. No way am I trusting any of the local machine shops / engine builders.

Build my own motor.

ls3

Pull out the motor and electronics, put a custom mattress in the cabin and i'll have a rockin bunk bed.:D oh, buy another FRS.

since the car will be that much lighter, i may just remove the floor and drive it around like the Flintstone's car

RB30 bottom ends are cheap over here, but I've always been an SR20 man and seriously considered putting my old motor (built SR with 35r) before selling her in this car but couldn't justify it... Would love to see it done though with the VE head :party0030:

Good thing Im making use of my fa20 and selling it to fund my 2j swap :)

Rebuild and trade in on newer model frs.

why spend all the money to rebuild just to trade it in for half the value?
