Ok - now I gotta mate in the shire who's old man has got a mini clubman body on sierra chassis and a suzuki mightyboy on a sierra chassis too.... mightyboy has a toyota 4AGE in it..... I can't get hold of his old man as the guy is a tight arse aout sharing info (evn though the mongrel had no hesitation in helping himself to parts out of my EJ holden for his hotrod - VERY UNHAPPY WITH THAT!!!! DIDN"T EVEN SAY SORRY!!! CANT SAY WHAT I WANT TO DESCRIBE HIM) anyway - where or how does one do the 4AGE motor swap in a sierra?????
Also - I am probably gonna geet pelted with verbal rocks here but as far as a sand runner goes - does anyone have ANY idea or can point me in the right direction of a 13B or 12A tubo rota motor in a sierra>???? I may end up just goin for 2wd but I like the idea of sierra's that rev to 11,000 RPM! My mate works at Mazda for last 9 years so motor stuff or diagnosis ain't a problem.....
Any help would be most appreciated.
Oh and the mini/zook and mightyzook are both fully engineered and registered so I may just build a mini zook myself for a bit of fun hey!

izook.com you will find some info on swapping a rota in.
As for the 4agze do some searching you should be able to find some good info. Otherwise PM Drew as he knows this conversion well

I have always wonder about an austin A30 on a zook frame. And we all know you can fit a 650 hp rotor in them.

but why do you want the rotor for if the zuke can do it with a 1.3 with shit all hp do you really need all that extra power but i got a thing about rotors to over done in my opinion
but does any one have direct links to the rota thing on izook.com spent about 15 min looking and couldnt find but im blind lol

Same - couldn't find it on izook.
Rota would be different and its gonna be primarily a sand buggy - got my patrols for off road as I don't really worrk about breakin sheayt in them.... super tough.
Zuk seem cool but - I will have problems fitting myself in one but as I am just shy of 2m tall and most of that is leg length... Zuk's seem cheaper too and more people play in em coz they are such a bargain and very capable off road too.... I have alot of respect for people who do em up as the options are limitless and you rearely see 3 the same....

I think he wants the power to burn up big dunes. Maybe not what every one wants but it's still cool
