Does anyone currently in hawaii have either one of these blocks installed in an sti ? If so , What's your opinion of reliability and performance ? Thanks .

 

Cosworth is big $$$. Axis would be my choice. Cobb is a also a player. I couldn't recommend Crawford due to customer service issues I've seen in multiple threads. There's a thread on NASIOC where a 2.5 Cosworth block is $18K+. Too much money IMHO.

Thanks , I was looking at a Axis stage 3 , runs about $4050 + shipping build time about 3 weeks . The stage 5 was alittle over kill for me , I figured money could be spent on other areas such as headwork and drivetrain . Maybe , Cosworth heads ?

 

the axiss ej22t is cheaper. they bore it out 20 over so it's 2.4 and can handle a lot. plus ha individual oil squirters. if i were buying a motor thats what i would buy, that or a jdm spec sti motor. gl

 

Cool , thanks for your input !

 

look at Abacus Racing in VA.

 

cosworth for sure...

 

I was looking at the Axis stage 6....Looks sick!!!

Custom made: Georgie Peformance engines!!!!!!

 

Prodrive?

 

Prodrive is bucks too.

 

I'll look into those , abacus and prodrive . Thanks ......

 

The cosworth block is a nice option, but truly overkill for most people. i would say the axis stage 2 would be good for me, i'm still deciding on a built block option myself.

 

How the hell you afford these sort of things

 

Be smart with your money. I was able to save $11k in 6 months on E-5 pay while i was there.

 

The type of block I'm buying is still up in the air , but I'm definitely buying Cosworth heads !
