Not sure if this is a re-post or not?

Would be brutally brutally quick if it could get some traction

christ shes got some poke!

[MadE30mike]

F@#k i eh! how much fun would that be !!!

[Geeman]

9.48 quarter... pretty quick.

It'd be a fukker to handle though... there is a thing as too much power!

[e30bemer]

awesome

as ANT would say, "too much power is just enough"

Lee, hopefully that'll inspire you away from this jap engine conversion councilness

never Neil, why pish money away on stuff that wasn't designed for forced induction when a toyota 1jz or 2jz will drop straight onto the mounts

If I had to turbo a N/A I've been reading up on the V8 in my car, absolutely bullet proof as they come. Standard bottom end will take 800bhp all day long, 6 bolt mains don't ya know. The lump in my car has seen 2700bhp at 50psi of boost

Smokin!

I want that car soooo much. How much would it cost to build one of them then?

[maxfield]

Ԛ£15k ish That's just parts

[jmc330i]

toyota 1jz or 2jz will drop straight onto the mounts

Which engine is this? Please tell me its the 6cyl supra engine

[E30BeemerLad]

2jz is out of the MK4 Supra Twin Turbo
1jz is the 2.5 tt out of the soarer and also the jap import MK3 supra, 280bhp standard
also 7M-GTE which is the 3 ltr single turbo out of the UK MK3 supra fits too

[jmc330i]

2jz is out of the MK4 Supra Twin Turbo

That would be the 320bhp, 6spd Supra?

Just out of interest, where would one look if one were looking to buy such an engine/box?

[E30BeemerLad]

ebay or look on www.mkivsupra.net
pretty expensive though.

when I eventually get sorted with some workshop facilities I am looking at the 7M-GTE out of the UK MK3 Turbo Supra, 230bhp as standard, but once you've lost the cat and fitted a manual boost controller and a few other cheap add-ons you are straight over 300bhp and 350ft of torque and I am extremely confident the conversion could be done for less than Ԛ£1K after buying a cheap shitter donor car complete from egay and then recouping some of the costs in fragging the bits not needed. The LSD on the supra will go straight onto my soarer too, so 2 jobs sorted at once

[jmc330i]

Hmm, I guess this brings up another option for a turbo'd E30. Especially if the engines drop in without the need for custom mounts.
I might have to do a bit more research into this before I buy another S50....

[E30BeemerLad]

there's an aussie forum called Eurcca or something, stands for European Car club of Australia, can't find a link for it. But because the aussies have an abundance of jap stuff arriving on their shores and BMW bits are relatively hard to get hold of or expensive, it is often the case that they turn to a jap transplant as a cheaper alternative. So there have been quite a few of these conversions done over there.

What I like about the jap turbo idea is the almost limitless tuning potential of the engines due to the huge variety of aftermarket products which are much more readily available. So once the conversion is done, you have much more choice in obtaining larger power outputs through proven methods & using proven products.

Yeah, that does kind of appeal to me too

I really like the idea of turboing a BMW engine and Ive pretty much got another S50 lined up, but with the tuning potential of the Jap motors it is very very tempting.

[monsport]

serious performance and some work done. love the wheels what kind are they does anyone know?

[maxfield]

Hamann wheels not sure what kind tho

[jmc330i]

In the video, Hamann PG2 wheels. In the pics on the PPF forum, Compomotive MOs.

[kunjani]

is that a tubular manifold?

crazy mad bad insane power (i like i like alot)
