Chris Wilson Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 That SPA Brazilian manifold, converted from new by welding to a decent wastegate flange rather than the inadequately walled stock bolt on flange looks interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Very light alloy V6 to very heavy cast iron I6 in a De Lorean should be, err, attention grabbing in the corners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I like that. They stick 2JZ's into everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 Very light alloy V6 to very heavy cast iron I6 in a De Lorean should be, err, attention grabbing in the corners If I am not mistaken it was optimised by Lotus orignally but even with the Renault V6 she wasnt the best in the cornors according to roadtests At least she will have the horsepower to get to 88mph, who knows what will happen , maybe place a few bets things could be very different for us in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 They were utterly dire, a friend dreamed of having one for years, eventually bought an ultra low mileage minter and was so disappointed he cried. The whole saga was an economic and political disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
