Cost to rebuild KA

[drift-sx]

yeah if i can find a winter car (toyota corolla hatch RWD) then i will be rebuilding my KA i was jsut wondering how much money goes into a rebuild. the engine is in good operation condition now. I jsut want to bring it back to its original condition, maybe some upgrades if i have left over cash. so yeah i was jsut wondering how much money i will be thinking about to rebuild this beast.

i am rebuilding it myself i jsut want the car to be in peak condition just incase i choose to take a high performance route.

if your going to chose the high performance route, then your going to have to rebuilt your rebuilt at some point

atleast consider getting petter pistons/rods and a new set of camshafts, otherwise your going to have to chuck those out when you chose to go for a high performance route.

just use some seafoam for now, there is a thread floating around here about it.
