GeordieSteve Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Seen that before. Waste but insane project. Exhaust side of that turbo looks a little large Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSupra Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 seems like more hassle than its worth to be honest but fair play to the fella that is an awesome conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazboy Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Loved it the first time it was linked to this place. Other mental things doing the rounds is a Moggie body on a 200SX, and a Micra with 200SX running gear. Audi RS4 engine in an Elise is a giggle too. Dunno why but a 3000GT engine and drivetrain in a 306 widebody kind of appeals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSupra Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 That is because he wants to be unique. couldn`t that also be mental???? as much as i love throwing money at my car that seems a silly amount of work for a car of such little value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 omg what a project. That thing will be a flyer if it can be controlled - a death trap otherwise! anyone know if it plans to be street legal? if it could get traction that sort of setup could challenge for the fastest street legal 1/4mile car couldn't it? those 205 bodies weigh f-all!

chilli Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Needs RLTC. lol yep and some slight wheel arch mods, oh and a bonnet with a slight bulge by the looks of it too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyb10supra Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 that is totally ridiculous, I had a 200bhp 205 and struggled to keep the thing in a straight line....I cant see how 300bhp in a car that weights as much as a box of matches is going to hold, there rattly at the best of times, he will be lucky if that lasts more than a week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 only 300bhp? with that single on there and that manifold he'll be getting more than double that (and possibly then some) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Indeed! Still waiting for a crazy fast 1 series BM - bet they won't call it the M1 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruggs Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Theres a Nissan Micra up here in Scotland running with a Pulsar engine in it. It won Ultimate Scottish Street Car beating off a 600 bhp MR2. The thing is a beast but looks a complete bag of Sh*te from the outside. Its awesome though cheers G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Storm Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 There is also a nissan micra with a 200sx engine in it running around in the north east! That thing is just crazy mad! I should know i was involved in building it! There again "anything" is do-able with a large enough wallet! Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSupra Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 Also some pictures floating round the net of a focus with an rb26 lump in it. Do they not at some point stop themselves and think why dont i just buy a supra or skyline, or 200sx??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
