Gibson Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 How many are out there? and what are they running? i assume supra and RX-7 engines are the most popular conversion? just out of curiosity really because i was looking at my supra and couldnt help feel the engine would be better elsewhere.... coincidently my 3.0i 24V MANUAL Supra is for sale, £400 if anyone is interested in this conversion http://www.oldskoolford.co.uk/phpBB2/vi ... highlight=
Stu_B Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 I dunno but that's a bloody bargain!! Swap for an Anglia Estate?
caprinerd Posted November 27, 2008 Report Posted November 27, 2008 saw a mk1 tina with a supra turbo of some kind looked factory fitted
ekjim Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 supra engined mk1 cortina sounds amazing do you have a link or any more info on this?
surfingturnip Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 theres an Australian lad on here with a mk2 cortina running a 550 brake toyota 4agze, think theres an anglia running something similar or possibly a nissan sr20 det
bmxdave Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 I almost bought a VG30 DET from a Z32 300ZX a while ago to fit in my mk1 Cortina. It was all planned, had the money and was about to get the car ready. Then thought it a good idea to measure the bits first. Bearing in mind i didnt mind cutting the bulkhead but not the sides of the engine bay or struts. No chance.
caprinerd Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 supra engined mk1 cortina sounds amazing do you have a link or any more info on this? now ilook at it i aint sure the guy was right about it being suprs but here`s the pic
Gibson Posted November 28, 2008 Author Report Posted November 28, 2008 looks like an MR2 engine to me... supras are straight six, i thought i was a good plug aswell lol
caprinerd Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 as i say i didnt really notice till i looked at the pic just went on what the guy said
V8ian Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 I dont run a jap engine, but Jap gearbox and rear axle.
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted November 29, 2008 Report Posted November 29, 2008 supra engined mk1 cortina sounds amazing do you have a link or any more info on this? now ilook at it i aint sure the guy was right about it being suprs but here`s the pic Yeah that's an MR2 engine. Neil at 105Speed.com is working on a conversion kit to get these into Anglias etc. Jubfab is (hopefully) putting a CA18ET engine into his anglia estate. That's a 1.8 litre turbo engine from a nissan silvia for those who don't know the engine codes.
