Wrong. Storm is an Isuzu power plant.

Wrong. Swift is a Suzuki engine.

The Geo that got the Toyota mill was the Prizm, it was a Corolla clone. It got 4A-F and 4A-FE up until the later years I haven't bothered to look at, never the DOHC -GE.


GO N00B!!1

The AE92 Prism GS-i got the smallport 4A-GE. Apparently, they're pretty rare though.

This car is the same base as geo metro, pontiac firefly, chevrolet sprint, suzuki swift and subaru justy... Everything is interchangeable between models...

There so many(and growing) enthusiasts based on this platform, that i´ve seen v8 geo metro, a rwd rotary mk1 geo metro, twin engine turbo swift... etc...

Here´s an amazing example...300+ bhp RWD mk1 swift gti conversion on custom chassis/suspension and BMW gearbox and axle... http://www.teamswift.net/viewtopic.php?t=9156

Dude your 1 liners that are so random and sometimes dont even make sense need to go.

G13BT - Nice project, and welcome to HMT. Even though I'm not a very big fan of that style of car, it definatly looks like a fun project. Be sure to post up some pics when your done and a fatty 13in wheel peg leg burnout too

I don't know why people think the Justy runs a Suzuki drivetrain?? Maybe because it's a 3 cylinder. It's a Subaru engine, an EJ12, first of the EJ series. MUCH better than the previous EA and ERs.
