Ea81 with spfi pistons didnt know if the turbo heads are better, also the onlt dr 5 spd i can find is 265k and leaking, anyone have one in decent shape? Or have any experience getting one rebuilt, is it worth it or just pray i find a better one, thx superoooooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carfreak85 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 EA81T heads are not "better" than non-turbo heads, they just have bosses cast in them for the fuel injectors, otherwise they are pretty much identical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superooo Posted June 19, 2016 Author Share Posted June 19, 2016 The 81t had some issues, so i passed on it, this is the gl hatch ive been trying to restore, and do a coupke upgrades, looking for the passing lamp and grill, wanna get a tube bumper and winch, but currently have 2 ea81s on the bench, 1 jy for nuts bolts and stuff and the freshly clean cases and heads i am building, still havent found a d/r 5 spd without a million miles, so thats been a big hiccup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
