    Default Isuzu anyone?

    Any Isuzu/Geo Storm/ Lotus Elan owners out there?

    I myself have an 88' Imark turbo, pending a 4xE1 t3 swap.

    Is that the 1.8L turbo engine or the G13B? That's also another set of cars that are often slept on. Gotta love the Isuzu's, well providing that you can find parts

    K series 626. That's right. It's got a K in it.

    Nope, it's the 4xC1-UT 1.5L turbo that's currently in it. They didn't start equipping the front-wheel drivetrains with the 1.8 until 1992. The 1.8 itself never came turbo, but they did make a 4xE1-t 1.6 for the AWD Impulse. It was only 160bhp, but for 1991, a 160bhp AWD import was almost unheard of for the time.

    The G13B is a Suzuki made engine. Isuzu made the engines for all of their own cars, the Geo Storm, and the Lotus Elan M100.



    Thank god at least ONE PERSON has heard of Isuzu making cars.

    I remember that car, it was pretty cool. I used to love the Impulse back in the day. I used to have a Rodeo. LOVED IT. Something different is always cool! GL with whatever you do with it!
