He mostly needs to know what he's doing/selling instead of just trying to pass it off as something it's not. Nothing against the guy... and I'm sure his stuff will 'fit' with some modifications... but his advertisement and his knowledge says otherwise... and his lack of evidence too.
Aside from that... if you want performance parts and don't mind a little labor to fit them... go for it. I don't think he's a bad person or anything, or even a cheat... just very very uninformed. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"

Yeah my friend's 95 Prizm has the 5afe. Pretty crappy.
Btw, the suzuki Sidekick (the Rav4/Tracker) frickin rules! LOL, my friend has an older one with a 5speed and it's about the funnest car to mess around with. You can hit on girls while you're in it and they laugh at you as though it's a pinto, you can try and go off-roading and get stuck like you would taking you mom's grocery getter in the mud, and then drive back and have so much smoke pouring out people were thinking you're cheech and chonging it home. Most versatile/fun piece of junk ever! -------------------- 95 Toyota Celica GT

no US 5a-fe...... 5a-fe is lower than the 4a-fe in power and torque..... it's probably a 4afe.... possibly a 7afe |

Right, as it says in the engine bay 5A-FE...right on the chassis schematic sticker on the underside of the hood.

im pretty sure the RAV4 has never been badge engineered to a Tracker, ever... Trackers are still clearly Suzuki Vitara/Escudo clones.

there is a 5a-fe I had one in a 95 tercel I used to own, worked fine in that car 'cause it weighed nothing.

that was a 5E-fe.... the only tercels to have A series motors were the mid-early 80's tercels... get a picture of the sticker on the hood (if the hood is stock)... i have a hard time believing it has a 5a-fe... especially since i had an ae102 BASE prizm... and it had a 4a-fe....
