Hi just joined. I have owned celicas in the past and have mainly fond memories. That being said, as the title suggests I plan on putting a turbo charged 18rg in a mazda 1000 ute(should pull like a schoolboy). After lots of research and calculations.. I plan to put 22r eagle rods with forged ford 4.6 litre v8 pistons ($500ish for 8, so really cheap) they are dished, so perfect for turbo/valve relief... The biggest problem I am finding is finding standard/race parts..Why hasnt someone duplicated trd gear drive for sale? I am looking at doing that myself and trying to find gear drive that might be machined to make them fit. i will post when I know more.
