My only reservation about a 5SGTE/5SGE is the shape of the pistons, Im not sure what CR you would get, or if the heads have the same volume.

Here is a 5S-FE head, note the shape of the combustion chanber and the angle of the valves, they are almost vertical.

When you put a header onto a stock 5sfe or 7afe all you are doing is unrestricting the most unrestricted part of the engine. The intake ports and the way they flow into the combustion chamber is the b...

Why dont you try sanding the chrome/metallic paint lightly with 2000-2500 grit sandpaper and then buffing and finally polishing. A brand new coat of paint on your car isnt super glossy either, its dul...

Oem sideskirts and the gt4 riser blocks look amazing in person.
