An they look Cool.
I did mean to imply I would be changing engine to a KA24, Just that if you are
going to do a conversion the KA is a good choice.
Love my FJs

The FJ20DE and T were only fitted to Japanese and European cars.
Silvias and DR30 Skylines from memory.
A bit annoying but time has rectified this.
Don't be deterred that this engine is mid 80's vintage, it can still "cut
the mustard"
There is a discussion raging as we speak on our local Ozdat forum about the
qualities of the FJ20 V CA18 V SR20.

I dont think FJ20 engines were installed in anything sold in USA. It was
only "suitable" for the rest of the world. I like this engine, almost
bullet proof and short stroke but a bit on the heavy side. Used as
Formula 3 engine. Not much different weight compared to U20 or R16.
