  1. Hi all, Joined the forum two years ago, and have been working on a Skoda project since. Just got her on the road, and have come back here since I'm now officially a Skoda driver....well almost. It's a Skoda body with a Toyota heart. Skoda Felicia GLX with a Toyota 4A-GE 1.6L, 20V, Quad throttle transplant. The original engine and box was damaged in an accident with the previous owner. It's alot of fun to drive and now understand why this forum has grown at such a rate.
  2. Hi Everyone. I'm new here. I'm from Trinidad, in the West Indies. My girlfriend and I have recently acquired a Skoda Felicia that need some work. It also needs engine, g/box and axles. OEM parts are quite hard to come by here since not many of this model car sold here. Hence I am thinking of doing an engine swap. The most obvious swap (so I've been told) would be for a VW front end. However VW parts are very costly here, whereas Japanese parts are not. I'm thinking of swapping the original 1.3 (75HP) engine for one of the following: Nissan SR20DE - 2.0L, 16V Nissan SR20DET - 2.0L, 16V, Turbocharged Toyota 4EFTE - 1.3L, 16V, Turbocharged Toyota 4AGE - 1.6L, 20V Toyota 4AGZE - 1.6L, 16V, Supercharged Any advice on engine swapping would be appreciated. Hope I've not offended anyoen by proposing a hybrid project, but it's really not feasible in my location to attempt an OEM project.
