not that i can think of! sorry mate :shrug:
keep an eye out in autotrader, thers always the odd 2.0l in it but if you have the money, go for a 2.0 turbo if you can find 1

not too much i don't think. why not use the money to put a 2l engine in your C?

i dono, i sorta wanna buy either a b or a polo to go DUB style. i'm at ui like so i need a car to run about in.. once i have that i think ill do it then. its very hard to get a z20let over here like. ya would have to go to england for one.

its a big job... the wireing is totally different in a c20 to a z20 like.. bu you will get more power gains from a c20 but i think the z 20 looks nicer in the engine bay .... have you sourced one or started looking for one yet??

yeah no probs! i can get both a 1.4 sport corsa B engine or a 1.6 sport corsa B engine for £300 each right now if you want? i can prob get other engines but i haven't looked! unless you want a 2.5l omega engine which i can get easily as well but it's rear wheel drive!

if someone could do a 1.8 conversion i could have one of those engines in the morning... but keep an eye out for a c20let or z20let.
