KA didnt have the power I wanted. Sr20 was fun, but I dont have access to a good tuner to tune an engine to a reliable level for the power levels I wanted.

Swapped in a 1UZ for about 3grand, which is about what it costs for a SR20 swapped in. I was able to learn a lot while doing it and at 250hp/260tq I don't have to worry about upgrading turbos and what not. Helps that if I do want to add boost, the motors have been run at mid 500hp with just headstuds and a headgasket.
